Today at DC’s The Source blog, they announced the roll out of their very own digital storefront – the DC Comics Digital Store. Some may be asking why this is a big deal…well, quite simply, it means David Harper can read digital comics now. Considering the fact that (believe it or not) there is a slew of people out there just like me who do not carry a holster loaded with an iPad or iPhone, the fact that we can now buy and read comics on a ComiXology powered site for DC Comics is pretty freaking exciting.
Having personally never experienced the glory of ComiXology before, when I rolled out the first issue of 52 on my desktop, I was immediately in love. The experience is beautiful, and something I honestly thought I’d have to wait on until DC or Marvel or someone developed an app for Android devices.
For non iUsers, make sure to check out the DC Comics Digital Store. They added The Dark Knight Returns and the first issue of The Authority (free on the latter), so that’s reason enough to get on there and check it out.
