Christmas Comes Early for Android Users, ComiXology Launches

As an avid Android user, I’ve been bummed out by the extreme lack of digital comics support the growing mobile giant has received. While my iPhone and iPad wielding friends have excitedly read through their Marvel and DC apps, I’ve been left alone, biding time with Angry Birds as the dream of Android friendly apps would come my way.

That day is today, as ComiXology finally launched an app on Android. While the DC and Marvel exclusive apps have not launched yet, this does put upwards of 2,500 comics from 40 publishers (not Marvel!) in the palm of Android users hands. With Android tablets launching now, I think it’s only a matter of time until Android gets the full suite of ComiXology apps. Here’s hoping that time is soon.
