ChaosArgate posted:So are there any iOS apps that let you lock the zoom level to page height? I usually use Comic Zeal but it often decides that because I want to see all of a single page, that it should show both pages at once when there are two pages and it's kind of annoying to read comics like that. I checked Chunky but it doesn't seem to have a lock to height option, just lock to width. YACReader.

I was interested in the two issues of Bodies I read. I might catch up here. The Names is a good deal for 9 issues. Anyone make it through that? e: Might get Effigy too. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 16:51 on Apr 5, 2016 |

Vertigo sale on Comixology, here are my hot takes: American Vampire - Been meaning to read this series, but the sale's only for volume 7? Mad Max: Fury Road - Heard it kind of ruins a lot of the mystique behind the movie portrayals, and lessens Furiosa FBP: Federal Bureau of Physics - Worth it at sale price, pretty and trippy Coffin Hill, Wolf Moon - Ehhhhh, not bad, but mostly forgettable Bodies - Centuries-spanning mystery that has trouble sticking its landing, but I enjoyed the ride The Names - Jaysus, no! Milligan brings some interesting setup to the table but none of it develops or combines in interesting ways at all Suiciders - Lee Bermejo, y'all. Dirty, nasty, ugly L.A. Hinterkind - Read 'The Autumnlands' instead Get Jiro! - Fun story, avoid the prequel at all costs The Wolf Among Us - I've only read the first trade of Fables, any word on this? Effigy - Haven't read

It also got a ton of Internet hate. But, talking to people offline, they were mostly between "it's okay" and "I liked it!"

Best part about the second one is how much like an afterthought the Vision looks like. Like "oh, also there's an android in a coffin."

Empowered is an absolute steal at the sale price. No idea about any of the rest though. There's also a sale on some of Marvel volume 1s starring female leads. Silk vol 0, Ms Marvel 2014, Captain Marvel 2012-13, Avengers: Scarlet Witch and Angela: Assassin of Asgard https://www.comixology.co.uk/Women-of-Power-Sale/page/10397?ref=c2l0ZS9pbmRleC90YWJsZXQvc21hbGxDYXJvdXNlbA Picked up Angela: AoA, I read Ms Marvel when it was first published on Comixology and think it's awesome. I'm kind of considering the others but the cover art on Captain Marvel is a bit off putting and I don't know much about the others.

I sub to MU so I don't ever buy digital Marvel unless I'm foolishly trying to keep up with an event, but I wonder for people who do: why not just sign up for a month of MU and read the sale stuff for much cheaper? I'm not trying to be critical or anything, I'm just curious what the rationale is.

MU has a terrible interface and unless you've got a long reading binge planned, it's not worth the trouble. YMMV of course, but having just rejoined MU for a free month, I was reminded what a hassle library management can be.

Oh it is for sure, I use the iOS app which has the fewest complaints afaik, but it still has huge problems, especially compared to, say, the comixology app. It must be really bad if people are willing to pay 150%+ of the cost for a different platform.

MU still doesn't have hi-res comics, right? A couple bucks might be worth the combo of actually owning the thing and filling your retina screen.

Dunbar posted:Besides what everyone else has said, MU doesn't have literally everything. There are issues you can buy digitally that aren't on MU. I'm going to have to buy some if I want to read all of Infinity Gauntlet with the tie ins, I think. That doesn't apply to the stuff currently on sale though, which I assume is all on MU.

I agree it is the thing I dislike about MU. They have next to nothing of old Ghost Rider, Punisher, Silver Surfer, or cosmic marvel in general. Want anything from the 90's that isn't the main Avengers or Amazing Spider-Man? Good luck.

Not really sure where is the best place to post these but G. Willow Wilson had some interesting Tweets regarding digital sales (sorry, I don't know a better way to post tweets than to link them): https://twitter.com/gwillowwilson/status/722171620215795712 https://twitter.com/gwillowwilson/status/722171824478355456 https://twitter.com/gwillowwilson/status/722172014790713344 Given that she writes Ms. Marvel, she'd know as well as anyone how much better certain books can do on digital sales. I'd always assumed based on statements by creators and publishers that digital sales were sort of an additive to print sales, adding maybe a small percentage to the total, but not much more. I'd never have guessed you could have digital sales double or multiple times more than print sales.
