I did a page count and the collections have fewer pages than the individual issues. They probably don't include the letters pages and such.

Also, there is a free Mind the Gap prologue that isn't featured on the sale page for some reason.

Haven't found anything new the last couple days, although the foreign book sales seem to be changing or getting additions frequently.

Dammit. Claremont's X-Men is my weakness.

Bought the bundle.

I wish Comixology would list the free comics in the Free section. If I didn't check here I wouldn't know about half the freebies that come along.

If you check Danger Girl individual issues, Issue 0 is free if you want to check it out before buying any of the bundles.

That wouldn't make business sense I guess. They want you browsing the site. If all 1000+ freebies were always in one place it'd be too easy for people to get just those.

I wonder if there are placement considerations to get into the branded free area.

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

I can't remember if I've seen this mentioned, but this morning I was about to buy the Nemo: Rose of Berlin League of Extraordinary Gentleman one shot on Amazon for $11 something (cover is $15) when I noticed the Kindle version is only $3.99.

I checked on Comixology and it's the same price there. Of course, part of the reason for the price of the print version is the fact that it's a hardcover. It's only a 48 page book, but the digital version is a really good deal compared to print.

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

Combining a couple posts here to make it easier to cut & paste the newish deals to all my sites.

Dark Horse sale, unknown duration, on a Goon bundle; 50 books for $39.99 instead of the $159.50 regular price. Great book, I picked up most of it in the anniversary sale.

Comixology snuck two new freebies in; America's Army #10 and The Superfogeys #1.

From Dynamite until 7/20/14, a sale on Jim Butcher's Dresden Files. 23 different books from the various mini-series for $.99 each or a 22 book bundle for $16.99 that includes everything except the newest #1 from the new ongoing mini. Anyone read this?

Another X-Men sale from Marvel, today only. The ten issue Battle of the Atom series, spread across 5 different titles; and all 18 issues of X-Men Legacy. Anyone have any recommendations here?

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

Three new sales today.

From Dark Horse, a Kids Sale, unknown duration, 52 books for about 50% off, titles like Avatar and Usagi Yojimbo and Star Wars Adventures.

From ONI Press, lasting until 7/21/14, a big sale on Wasteland. All 55 issues (it's set to conclude soon I think) for $.99 each, or a bundle of the first 50 issues for $24.99, 74% off. The first issue was (is?) free. Anyone recommend this series? I guess I should at least read that first issue...

Also lasting until 7/21/14, an Archaia Fantasy Sale. 16 different collections for a varying discount and four single issues (Lucid 1-4) for $.99 each, issue 1 was (is?) free. Haven't read any of their stuff, guess I'll give Lucid a read.
