yar. outside of renumbering, this is really no different than any of the previous reworks -- three of which just took place in the past 5 years or so. comics reinvent themselves by definition, almost as soon as a new writing team takes over. for all the gruff geoff johns gets, i actually like the way he takes all these cluttering past elements and streamlines them into something. maybe not something beautiful, or not always something well received -- but something.

How much are digital comics usually worth? Legal ones, I mean.


typically similarly priced to the printed books. 99, 1.99, and 2.99. i've seen some in marvel land for 3.99, but that is poo. the digital stores (through iTunes / Comixology) also do occasional sales, like making all GL books 99 cents on earth day (cuz it's green, get it?!).

they're JUST starting to drop books on the same day they're available in print, too. usually only one or two, but its so cool to see.

and now, they're also adding more legacy books to the available library - even beyond the DKR and year one collections from the 80s, you can now get the first 25 issues of the 1940s batman
