It was announced earlier today that Amazon is acquiring ComiXology, which will retain its identity as a subsidiary in a deal to be completed this quarter (i.e. on or before June 30.) No other details seem to be available at this time. It sounds like a “keep doing what you are doing with more resources to back you and we’ll share your profits” deal at this point, but we can’t be certain just yet. We’ll keep you updated on this.
If it results in Prime gaining free access to Comics, I’d be all for it.
Sort of like Marvel Unlimited, but for a wider range…
I’m a big fan of Unlimited. If they can work something out to do the same for DC titles at least, I’d be all for it.
