So during the process of moving a couple of months back I was amazed by exactly how many comics I have. I was wondering if there is a Digitally distributed "subscription" for any of the Joe comics (just 10 times easier for me to leisurely read them on my laptop, and it's a little more Eco-friendly)? I know that you can get some other Marvel titles this way but was wondering about any of the Joe stuff.

No legal means from hasbro or IDW yet. There is one guy on here always trying to point people to the illegal scans he sells.
While not digital, I recommend the new series of trade paperbacks. They are far more portable than monthlies, and they sit nicely on a bookshelf and don't take up much space. |

I get a discount that's pretty comparable to the amazon prices, and have picked up a few of the trades, just trying to decrease my carbon footprint. The App that IDW uses on Itunes is nice but 1. Lacking an Iphone/Ipod Touch and 2. The artwork is shrunken down so you don't get that "comic book" feel.
I did however find that there is a program/service launching in October, and it doesn't look like Marvel/IDW is supporting it yet, That will be kinda like a full size viewer that they announced in San Diego this year. http://crave.cnet.co.uk/software/0,3...9303101,00.htm |

Yeah, Longbox looks awesome. I've read and listened to several interviews with Rantz Hoseley, the guy running that ship, and it seems like he's got a winner in his hands. Unlike other digital comics efforts, he's trying to address everything from the perspective of the fans, publishers, & creators, and has a great business case and deployment strategy. I hope it really takes off. Can't wait for cheap legal digital comics.

I know there is a program call CDisplay. Its how I read all my comics. All you have to know is where to get them. You can find bit torrents online for everything. I have got all the Joes, Batman, X-Men, Green Lantern and anything else I want.
