Last year during SXSW, ComiXology came unstuck when a few hundred thousand people tried to download 700 free Marvel comics all at once and the system crashed.

The comics sold weren't compatible with more popular apps like ComiXology, who have a monopoly on Marvel and DC titles And they weren't even DRM-free, like Image titles. The final week of sales is February 28th, though a few stragglers may remain. And now it appears they have been squeezed out Some will find it ironic that[...]
