I actually like how DC digital trades have neat extras at the end of the book (whereas Marvel usually just collects the issues), but they are not very good at digital.

I loved the late '80s/early '90s Mister Miracle series than ran concurrently to JLI/A. I used to have all 28 issues and sold that run, among many other great comic runs, during my grad school collection purge. If you're a fan of the Giffen/DeMatteis JLI/A, don't sleep on that one.

For example, during the black history/creator month (I don't recall which it was titled), they added a few issues of the Jason Rusch Firestorm series, though not all of them.

I've asked this before, but what are you guys using these days to view/track digital comics that aren't through Comixology? Like all the Humble Bundle comics, I have a gazillion to read and I'd like to have some way of tracking which ones I've read and which are new. Ideally with a way of reading on my Android tablet.

Before I fell horribly behind, I would keep track of my books on comicbookdb.com, but it's not automatic. These days, I transfer books to my tablet with Dropbox and delete them from there as I read them. I have a primary copy backed up elsewhere. Again, not automatic, but works for me.

Android I have no clue. On iOS I use YACReader for that stuff. That way I don't have to actually transfer it to the iPad because it can be read it straight from my computer. As far as I know it's the only reader capable of reading straight from remote PC without downloading the files on iOS. I really try to avoid Humble Bundles these days because I prefer to have most of my books in one app though. Especially since every once in a while they give you PDFs for some insane reason.

The Kins posted:Transformers vs. GI Joe Bundle Anybody able to say what's worthwhile in this? I remember picking up a G.I. Joe reboot a number of years back, and it was pretty goddamn bad for a 1st issue. I distinctly remember them having a social media manager complete with codename 'Hashtag', and it was played up as a completely self serious attempt at reflecting 'realistic' Joe team.

Comixology 1 day Dark Horse line wide 40% off sale. I'll be buying some Hellboy tonight! Is anything worth it in the Jack Kirby verse from dynamite? Mr Hootington fucked around with this message at 21:18 on Aug 21, 2017 |

SomeJazzyRat posted:Anybody able to say what's worthwhile in this? The Transformers Phase 2 stuff is the stuff that's gotten critical buzz. The earlier stuff isn't bad per se, just kind of rote and overcooked in places. Either way that's a lot of comics for $25, as the IDW collections are all like 300+ page trades compiling almost everything IDW's published with these properties.

Pretty sure the 'IDW Collection' ones aren't normally available digitally anywhere (It's an OSHC series they do)

Oni has some good stuff. My recommendations in this sale would be: Letter 44 The Sixth Gun The Bunker - Though I will admit the art style might be a turnoff for some people, I liked it but it's a rough style Wasteland I haven't read all of Stumptown, but what I have read is really good. All of those are pretty lengthy deep dive books though. So If you're looking for a short light fun read I recommend Jeff Steinberg or Terrible Lizard. They're both fun little books.
