How much do these Digital Comics or the Marvel Subscription cost?

I am not a comic reader but I can see that have the occassional look – hopefully a pay as you go service is available for casual readers.

@ SolidCake:
“hopefully the screen rotates, so you can view one panel as large as possible.”

The PSP already allows image rotation by default when viewing pictures. They’d be fools not to allow it for comics.

I’m all over it. Trade paperbacks were taking up too much space…

Otherwise I don’t give a shit.

A subscription plan might be nice though.

I love innovations but I’ll probably stick to retails for now.

Sigh. Thanks for the info man, as disappointing as it is. I get the feeling that the PSPGo is going to be a lot more useless in Canada than it is in other parts of the world…

hmmm have to wait and see if this is a good thing or bad thing, really will come down to a cost issue
(downer is also you’ll never have a “collectible” due to no hard copy, hence the value will never be there
