That's a shame America The Boys makes chart space in nearly every other country, going as high as #2[...]

Louis Falcetti writes for Bleeding Cool; If you can judge a country's mood by what comics it buys on comiXology (and really, why wouldn't that be a reliable indicator?) than things are pretty bleak out there Well except in Italy, but that's hardly a surprise Frank Miller has a huge week, with issues of The Dark[...]

When a American customer purchases comics via the iOS Comixology app, Apple adds almost 9% sales tax onto the final price. However, making the same purchase via the Comixology website does not incur the same tax.Even if you do it on your iPad with the Safari browser. Of course, it's not just that 9% that you're saving[...]

And now the Lego Ninjago comics are coming to ComiXology Starting with a three day ComiXology sale. The previous Lego sales were mostly outside the direct market and so did not affect the more commonly available monthly digital charts This will not be the case with ComiXology.

It also featured Gray Morrow art, and I note the Archaia pr mentions remastered Gray Morrow art, so it will be interesting to see if they are using the or expanding upon the Charlton material in their new series.

There's just so much unoriginal crap in the world that we forget about that moment when a story does that-thing, the moment when it turns around, when Xavier stammers out, "Why is that map upside down?" and Xorn removes his helmet, what little bleeder's would probably lovingly refer to as that "punch the sky and[...]
