I guess they're not putting their digital trades on sale then, huh. I was excited to buy some Batman stuff but hell if I'm going to buy like 60 single issues.

Dunno why they waited a day later, but a lot of the trades are on sale. So glad I didn't start buying them yet, as I was planning on grabbing Hush.

What are the cheap collections? I can see Hush, Year One and The Black Mirror for $3 each.

Holy poo poo, it is time to re-read some Batman.

Thanks for the tip!

Are we for sure that the collected version was full price yesterday? If so, I'll give it a shot.

It was full price yesterday as I checked it myself when debating on grabbing Long Halloween, but then noticed the trade is only three bucks more and decided to just grab it later.

If it's any consolation, I bought the Black Mirror issues before the trade went on sale.

Oh god these sales are going to kill me.

I wonder why the Sex Criminal trade is more expensive than buying them individually. I'm probably still grabbing it as I enjoy having the volume over the singles.

Does the collection have all the letters pages? If not, definitely buy the individual issues!

Also, the sale has moved to Image's site, Google Play, and iBooks.

The Manhattan Projects is the same way. 5 issues each, and between $6 and $9 for trades 1 - 4. I like having them in volumes as well, but not sure it's worth an extra $10 to pay to have them collected.

The 10 Batman titles at $2.99 under the "Essential Batman Collections Sale" banner are most likely a price match, as those same ten titles are part of today's Kindle Deal of the Day, so if you're interested in picking those up I'd do it today, they'll probably go back to full price tomorrow.

Of those, I've read (and liked) Hush, the Killing Joke, and the Long Halloween. I bought Dark Knight Returns and Year One but haven't read them yet. Are any (or all) of Arkham Asylum, Batman & Son, Black Mirror, Court of Owls, and Earth One things I'd likely want to pick up?

They have bonus stuff like how the artist makes pages, extra unused lines in that fake porno, and how the fourth printing cover was made (turns out it was two photos merged together)

I'm having problems with Marvel Unlimited app for Android. The loading icon takes forever and when I do get in it's showing me 3 pages instead of the entire comic even though I've got a subscription. Is this happening to anyone else or am I just unlucky?

e: Seems to be working again. Maybe it was a server issue.

Definitely get Hickman Avengers. A+X has some fun issues, but I'd recommend checking each one and look for creators you like, since they change each issue.

I got the previous Submit bundle they did a few months back. I didn't know much, if anything, in it and while not everything was great and I didn't even read everything, that was pretty cool to see different stuff from the usual. I'd recommend giving this a try for the hell of it.

edit: and yeah, everyone should have Essex County in their digital library.
If you guys are looking for something different, Box Office Poison is good.
