Marvel Comics are doing a big sale on digital volumes for $0.99 each on Comixology
- Thread starter LordOfLore
- Start date
To think that Amazon's crazy sales is topped (well Comixology is owned by Amazon :P)...
These sales are beyond tempting as hell.

Amazon's site has the sale too. I think there might be more than Comixology.

If you're okay with a more dramatic take on Deadpool there's some good stuff.
Black Bolt is a must.
Man, digital comics are so confusing. As someone who's just starting to get into Marvel, I've been enjoying Marvel Unlimited... but the quality sucks. So that makes me want to buy stuff on comiXology... which doesn't always have the same stuff, or has the trade collections instead of individual issues. It's all just so damn messy.
Something to note, is that it seems like for some series (if not many maybe), the 99 cent discount is only for the latest trades or so, like for Squirrel Girl and Gwenpool.
Think I just pick up the latest Squirrel Girl trade and the two Werewolf by Night collections (cause I need some werewolf comics in my life!).

There's some stuff on sale that isn't listed under this banner. Keep an eye out. There was stuff in my Wish List that was marked down.
The chronology of individual arcs and characters is impossible to discern from the website.
EDIT:
But that's mostly because comic chronology is garbage anyway.

I can't believe they've made me regret buying volumes at 2 to 3 bucks a pop. They are seriously devaluing their line here (but I don't mind). I mean I questioned anyone who would buy comics for four to five bucks a pop when the previous blowout sales were happening, but now I just see no reason to keep up. And if you're willing to wait even longer, Marvel Unlimited is an even cheaper option.
This can't be overstated. Everybody should pick up The Vision.
You don't really need to know everything to jump into a volume 1 of a story.
It's the least essential thing to know when reading comics. Just read for artists and writers you like, not the entire entirety of everything.
So The Vision and Black Panther collections are worth getting right? Which of the collections do I need to ensure I've got all of Coates' run?
Edit - and how is the Old Man Logan run? I enjoyed the movie quite a bit, but not really familiar with this particular collection.

Finally Secret Empire is priced appropriately
Vision is a no brainer.
I found Coates BP run boring, but the first 3 or 4 Old Man Logan books are great! That storyline where he fights a gang of hulks with nukes strapped onto their backs was baaaad though.

Yeah comic people always say this. Doesn't make it any easier for someone out of the loop to accept.
I want to know.
I've never read a Vision centric story in my life and understood everything that happened in Tom King's Vision just fine. There's no loop to be in when it comes to knowing everything. Read cool current stuff and fill in the blanks later if you care enough.
Bounce around and try stuff out. Find creators you like and stick to them. That's the actual loop to be in on. Finding your personal tastes within the medium.

Hell yeah, son! Look at those preview pages for volume 1! Shit's awesome!
Bought The Vision in its individual volumes last year. I see that this book is the entire collection and the "Director's Cut". What exactly does that entail, and is it worth the $.99 even though I already own the story?
EDIT: Also sad to see that some of these are Vol.2+ and Vol. 1 isn't on sale. Was gonna pickup the new Hawkeye: Kate Bishop series but don't want to start at the second volume.

Got it - thanks to you both. Bought and bought.
Yeah that's weird, but you might as well buy it and wait for more sales to get them all.
Slott's SS run is a Doctor Who rip off that turns into the best Doctor Who season ever. There whole run is incredible, some really moving stuff in there, can't recommend it enough.
My friend said the exact same thing about the run. Bought that Volume 5.

Hard to say no at $1 for those. I might as well pick up Gwenpool Vol 4 too, and just wait for the next crazy amazon sale to pick up the previous trades.
I bought 20 things. Just as I got my backlog down around 20 books since the beginning of the year.
But, at these prices, I'm practically saving money!

Oh, shit. Death of Jean DeWolff, Simonson Thor, Mark Waid Ka-Zar. Some good gems in there for old stuff.
Absolutely! It includes the Legacy book (like 30 pages), wich basics;ly sets the stage,for the next year(s) of the Marvel universe.
Then rest of the collection is 3-4 page long summaries of the characters, like their origin stories done with their current artists. It's a great way to get to know the Marvel universe, or more onscure characters.
Venomverse is silly fun but it's only half of the story and it continues in x-men Blue.
Edge of Venomverse is just plain boring
