    I got it last time for 99c. There's a great selection, I just wish there was a way to save a series rather than having to save multiple issues, or a way to create 'playlists' of comics for an arc or something.

    Got this as I see it as a great way to get into the Marvel Universe. Any recommended series or events? I've read Civil War already.

    It has been a while since I've read any such work, so thanks to OP for bringing this offer to notice. Looking at T&C [ http://marvel.com/help/ ], looks like annual subs is $69 and no mention of additional fees for non-US subscribers.

    I'm pretty sure World War Hulk is on it. Great story but without first reading Planet Hulk, you'd miss so much context. Have a look out for it anyway!

    Just a quick mention that Marvel Unlimited is 75c for the first month. Offer on today and tomorrow (4th Dec).

    So For the sake basically a "free" first month subscribed but having never read anything other than 2000AD and The Walking Dead I need recommendations for what I should cram into a month. Thanks folks.

    Top of my head:

    Matt Fraction's Hawkeye
    Mark Waid's Daredevil
    Wolverine: Old Man Logan
    Jason Aaron's Thor: God of Thunder
    Planet Hulk
    World War Hulk
    Civil War



    Pretty sure Spider-man: Blue has been added recently.

    Much Appreciated. I'll get stuck into that lot tonight.

    Hi, I just got this. Wanted this to read on my phone but the Marvel App isn't very good. Does anyone know how to make it easy to read on a phone? I have samsung galaxy min 3. I find to small to read the text and doesn't fill up the screen like I like it too. Thanks.

    Just zoom in.


  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭spektorfive


    Do you have the app? I can't see any button to zoom in.

    Found the smart panel function.

    I just spread the screen to zoom in and go like that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭spektorfive


    Does anyone else find it slow on laptop? through my phone is pretty fast but via my laptop it seem to be stop-ing and taking forever to load, anyone else?


  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭spektorfive


    Got email with offer for a free month. Just put in starwars in the promo code section.

    So what do you get for a subscription?
    Do you have to pay for issues after the sub fee?

    Stumbling and bumbling around this now but basically it's comic Netflix. Netcomix. $9.99 a month, cancellation is a click on your account page.

    Browse the "over 15,000" comics, hit the "U" logo to filter out the books that aren't available on it and if you're signed in/up, read the book on your screen of preference.

    Current runs in bold, they're six months (at least) behind and try not to accidentally buy anything. ;)

    There's an offer on at the moment, first month free when you enter the code STARWARS on checkout. marvel.com/starwars

    I just signed up for a free month.
