Ghost Rider sale on today.

Volume 6 #20 is where Aaron takes over and is what you want to read, that everybody wants to read, and Heaven's on Fire is the follow up mini which finishes his run. It's Grindhouse Ghost Rider and really, really good.

This is just the tip of the :black101: iceberg.



I already own these from when they first came out, and I still bought Aaron's whole run because goddamn is it that good.

Is Avengers Forever any good? All 12 issues for $4 sounds like a good deal, just curious that I won;t be wasting my money.

I am curious, why on the sales page for Comixology it has for the entire month random #1 issues on sale for a dollar.

Those have to do with the different 'Worlds' in Secret Wars. They are usually there to just act as a quick primer for what each world is and the main players. Marvel did the same thing in print, offering all these issues at a $1 each.

The Turtles in Time mini series is a must buy for TMNT fans. It's so good. I'm def. getting that Transformers vs. G.I.Joe series.

Has anyone else been having really loving slow download speeds when downloading comics to their tablet through the Android app? It's been happening on mine for a the past little bit, taking about 20 minutes per single issue when it used to only take like 1 minute, tops. I can't seem to find too much about it online.

I guess all I need to do is complain on the internet and the app will start to shape up. This past week, stuff was slow as hell and last night everything kept getting disconnected at 5%. This morning, everything downloaded just fine.

The internet is a confusing place...

TMNT is a great series that I completely forget about until it goes on sale and I buy like 8 volumes or however many I'm missing then I thoroughly enjoy them and proceed to go wait for the next sale a year from one. I never bothered with any of the micro series or single character stories, though.

You can completely read the main series without paying attention to the side series, they just add a bit more to the plot and are almost always good. The Turtles in Time and Rocksteady and Bebop Destroy Everything mini series are great.

I think you still can merge the two accounts. Truthfully I'm not sure why people haven't still at this point, unless I'm unaware of some down side.

No, I logged in with Amazon and the merge was like 2 minutes, I just never had before and was still using my old comixology log in.

I was my own problem.

The 4 volumes by Jason Aaron (Vol. 1-3 plus Heaven's on Fire) are loving incredible, character defining stuff, in my opinion. It just goes full grindhouse crazy.

The stuff by Way is not all that good, really (even though I bought them all as they were being released...).

I have a soft spot for The Midnight Sons stuff, but that's because I was 13 when it came out and that's pretty much the target audience for that stuff.

Is there a good Perfect Viewer equivalent for iOS, specifically for the iPad pro? I really like how no-muss-no-fuss it is.

I've been messing around with this lately too. The one I use right now is Comic Book Reader (yeah i know, unique name
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/comics-book-reader/id1056129062?mt=8

It syncs up with Dropbox, which was a big plus for me. I know there is a free version with some ads and a paid version, but i do not recall what the paid price is.

edit: pro version is $5.99. I'm suing for a while longer to see if if its worth it before dropping the money.

If anyone else has any better suggestions, I'm all ears.

I like Chunky Reader on IOS, it's great for reading and its the best reader I've used for downloading comics from OneDrive/Drop Box.

The developer is working on a new reader (Chunky TNG) that allows you to browse your entire library with covers from a cloud drive / opds server and then stream the comics, with an option to download for offline reading. It's still in testing at the moment but once it's released it will be the best reader on any tablet IMO, especially if you store your comics in OneDrive/Google Drive/Drop Box.

It's Ipad only :(. Great or the dude above, though.

So, are the Mark Waid Flash collections on sale on Comixology worth it for someone who isn't super into Flash (I know quite a bit about him, but nothing from that era), but likes Mark Waid?

I was thinking of signing up for Marvel Unlimited and DC Universe ( or whatever their service is called), and this will probably push me to pull the trigger. Now to see what Black Friday brings.

So does panel view just...not work in Marvel Unlimited? I just signed up today, and panel view does not work with Chrome on my desktop nor on my iPhone 8 app. Everything is updated.
