Hmm... Avengers: No More Bullying is still showing up as 'Free' for me on Comixology. There's a link on the first page, I posted it above. It's not in the Free section, you'd have to look by name or under 'Sales.'

I had used your link when I tried earlier and it was showing as $12.99. I just tried the link again and it showed as Free and I snagged it. Thanks for the original post and for indirectly prompting me to check again.

Their sales usually end at 11 pm ET on the date they list, so should be good for another half hour as I write this.

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

Among many horror sales, there's a DC horror and supernatural 50% off sale through 11/2, code HORROR. I really dug the new Animal Man but lost track of it so I'm thinking about catching up. Also tempted by the Moore Swamp Thing, which I've heard a lot about but never read.

About 40 new Comixology freebies in the last month.

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

For manga Comixology advertises in their email sales notice if you purchase a title from the Kodansha Horror sale in through November 6th then sometime next month you will receive a 50% off code for Kodansha.

Generally speaking if purchases from one sale triggers coupon code emails that might explain how some of us have gotten Image or other studio discount coupons but others did not. Although this is the first public notice I recall seeing.

This is one of the few sales that I'll probably be able to resist. Bone is one of the few series that I'd rebuy in print if I lost my copies.

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

Strangely despite not being on Comixology Unlimited a lot of items are showing me sea green "Borrow" options; I clicked one and it seemed to enable reading. I can't tell if this is Comixology's way of 'tricking' me into a subscription but I don't see any subscription indicated in my account information. Maybe a temporary glitch.

That happened to me once, and I later got a message saying that my free trial was ending. I never clicked anything about signing up, but my tablet hangs or crashes a lot when loading Comixology, so perhaps it registered some phantom clicks then.

Wow, I may have to get that one-volume. Never gotten a comixology digital comic so I'll have to see what that means.

I have all the TPB collections, including first printings, I believe, for the first three. In fact, I bought the first back when I was 15 or so and when I opened the cover in the car I discovered Jeff Smith had signed it and drawn Gone Bone in blue Sharpie. This was at a random comic book store in Nebraska!

And apparently the Amazon marvel kindle/comixology ~80% off madness is on again.

Y'know, I thought some of the Thor prices looked low when I was looking up the freebies, but I figured it was the Legacy sale.

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

I remember how crazy I went on the first 80%+ Marvel trade sale on Amazon and this round I can't afford much; but at the rate they've been having these it shouldn't be much longer till the next one (then Tsum Tsum Avengers can finally be mine...).

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

The odd thing about this sale is that they're actually advertising it, and saying it runs through Friday.

I picked up some Masterworks and Epics that had been released since the last sale, and the new Star Wars Screaming Cathedral. There's really no incentive to buy this stuff new, even at Amazon's usual reduced prices.

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

It appears the Marvel 80% off on Amazon is dead now; even if there's still a banner advertising it through today. Prices are back to just their standard 50% off. The crazy prices didn't last long at all this time and marketing is confusing, not sure what's going on.

Almost went to bed with 30 or so tabs open of things to check (if I had the singles or whatever). Glad I decided to stay up late, I guess....

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

I wonder if those will be priced lower than the ones in the current Geoff Johns sale. I got the 75 Year Celebrations and was thinking about 52.

I'm always tempted by those 75 Year Celebrations when they're on sale for $8. But are they just reprints of stories from the characters entire history, or do they include unique material?

All reprints to my knowledge. It's not ideal in certain situations (e.g., Teen Titans has only the last chapter of The Judas Contract), but I like the mix. Thing is, for wildly diverse anthologies like this, I kind of prefer a physical copy that's easier to skim through to what I want, but (1) they don't get as aggressively priced, (2) I'm still trying to reduce clutter, and (3) I have a better chance of reading a digital version these days.

Re: Digital Comic Book Discussion and Deals (Comixology, etc)

As long as Amazon keeps having these sales, they'll get me to buy a couple of the Star Wars epic collections each time til I have them all.
