What’s worse is that the images are blurry. There’s a zoom option but you can’t view a specific panel. Unlike in the mobile apps, you can’t tap on a comic panel to zoom it. The titles you purchase are accessible via Kindle Cloud Reader, which is worse than the built-in and efficient Comixology web reader they had before. Meanwhile, though they said that they’ve already addressed reader complaints back in February, reading on the web app is still not recommended. It is possible Amazon isn’t yet finished figuring out the whole shebang. In the library alone, you can only see your downloaded titles. We wanted to help smaller series get the spotlight they deserve," explains Steinberger.The app, while providing a great reading experience, feels bare-bones. "We spent a long time thinking about what comics people should be reading. I, too, was initially disappointed by ComiXology Unlimited, but after spending a couple of days with it, I can see the value in having a service to curate lesser-known comics. This isn't anything new, as movies and TV shows get pulled from Netflix all the time. Unlimited makes it easy to dive right in and try a new set of series."ĬomiXology plans to add more content to its Unlimited plan over time, though the company has said it'll remove comics every so often at the request of content creators. "I know too many core that don't branch out. "I think people will run into content they love and will continue supporting the people creating it."Īs for seasoned comic readers, Steinberger thinks Unlimited is still a great service for discovery. "I think there's something for everybody," says Steinberger. Collected volumes cost even more, so having the ability to read the first volumes of a ton of comics for the price makes sense for comic newbies. We want to make more artists and get them more readers."įor $6 a month, ComiXology Unlimited is a ridiculous steal as most single issue comics cost between $0.99 and $4.99. There's too much at stake for a truly unlimited subscription. "You have a few guys writing, drawing, and coloring 20 pages per month, and it's expensive. Comics are notorious for being an expensive endeavor, says Steinberger.
