The Batgirl sale at comixology doesn't include the Stephanie Brown Batgirl run which is a shame as I've been planning to pick that up for a while. What is the current Batgirl run like? I've only read the first issue and it seemed ok.

Is it possible that they knew this Comixology unlimited was coming and have signed an exclusivity agreement? I'm not getting my hopes up, but to have a unlimited service using Comixology technology that includes DC and Marvel would be a dream come true.

beergod posted:Why are the filez comics of such better quality than the legit ones? I keep buying stuff from comixology but it looks like blurry poo poo on my surface pro 3. That's because Comixology's app on Windows is a half-baked piece of poo poo. On iPad and android the comics are Hi-res. I'm hoping that because Windows 10 seems to be more popular that they might update the app to match the quality of the others.

beergod posted:Viewing them on the web browser doesn't give you hi res access either I take it. Nope, but with a little work you can get the Android APK to run under chrome using ARC Welder and the comics are in HD. It's not perfect, but it's still better than the lovely native Windows App.

beergod posted:Holy poo poo good looking out man. Would love to get it in a pure full screen mode but it isn't blurry trash anymore. Do you have to redownload your books every time you open it? I don't think so. As long as you don't add a new APK to ARC Welder they should stay. I haven't played around with it too much though since I mostly use my iPad for comics. You can also use Bluestacks to run Android apps on windows. That's a full emulator though so you have to open the emulator and then open the Comixology app. On the plus side you can use the registry to force it to use the whole screen, but I'm not sure how much storage is available inside the emulator for apps.

Is anyone else having issues downloading books in the Comixology apps? 12 of my books won't download on either iOS or Android, I can read them fine on the web. Most of them have downloaded fine before so I don't know whats going on now. I've sent a message to Comixology support, hopefully they can sort it out.

beergod posted:Are they replacing it with a working one? Or allowing you to view HD comics in the web browser? I feel like they straight up stole money from me. As far as I can tell, No and No. The email tells you to use the web browser, which now has smart lists and the new library browsing from the iOS and Android apps, but still only in SD. It's pretty dog poo poo to be honest. I hate the way content is used to enforce hardware lock in. Maybe someday DC and/or Marvel will go DRM free, but once again it seems that the pirates get a better experience than the paying customers.

Gaz-L posted:Honestly, if this results in them allowing you to view comics on the mobile site from Windows devices (presumably whenever Win10 Mobile/the mobile version of Edge launches), I'd say it's a step up. The Library sorting options on the website are certainly better then the non existent ones in the windows app.

Endless Mike posted:Honestly, even with the hassles with Comixology, it's still vastly easier than piracy. You might be right, leaving the storage and library management to them is great. And buying comics at work and then downloading them to my iPad is magic. Rusty Kettle posted:I personally love Comixology. I do all my reading on android, and a vast majority of what I read has a drm free backup that I stick on a Google drive. I have rebought many of the issues I got in humble bundles because comixology is so drat convenient. The full pages are nice on tablet, and the guided view works great on my phone. Don't get me wrong, I love Comixology as well. On my iPad and phone it's fantastic, i just wish they would support Windows the same way they do iOS.

Uthor posted:All you can read comics for $10/month. It's the usual mid-level publishers: Dynamite, Valiant, Red 5, a bunch of others, and, of course, Zenoscope. Has there been anything further about Comixology's supposed all you can read option? It would be intersting to see if they can manage to persuade DC to get on board.

Endless Mike posted:So I got an iPad Pro from someone on SA Mart and it rules since it's so big I can comfortably read two pages in landscape with almost no wasted space at all! When I brought my Pro I was expecting to read in portrait like I do on the smaller ones, but once I actually got it I found that reading in landscape was better, the pages are big enough for the text and images to be clear and you don't have to rotate for double page spreads.

I don't know when it happened, but my Bone comics on Comixology now support DRM free backup. I know it's a pipe dream, but I still hold hope that one day DC and/or Marvel will one day follow suit.

Doctor Spaceman posted:I don't remember any but I could be wrong. Uthor posted:No. Nearly everything Humble Bundle does anything, it's DRM free and for the comics/books, they just give PDFs. Good luck getting the Big Two on board. Thanks, I was hoping for a legal way to get Big Two comics DRM free, but I guess that may never happen. I've switched from an iPad pro to a surface pro 4 and I love it but with no Comixololgy/Darkhorse apps, I have to read DRM free comics only.

It takes a LONG time but it's not just "the germans are unstoppable monsters that horribly kill everyone". Thanks for the heads up, I picked this all up. Issue 19 wasn't on sale for some reason, must have been an oversight.

Medullah posted:I've got a Lenovo Windows tablet, anyone have any recommendations for a good comic reader? I like ComicRack and it does everything I want, tracking my library, read and unread, etc. It's CLOSE to perfect, but it really isn't tablet friendly. The menus don't scale well and swipe to change pages isn't that reliable. Cover in the windows store works well as a reader it tracks read and unread. It doesn't support metadata like ComicRack through and no reading lists, but it's still better than 90% of other readers out there.

enigmahfc posted:I've been messing around with this lately too. The one I use right now is Comic Book Reader (yeah i know, unique name 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.
