No. Reading comics on the computer sucks. I want paper and ink. :)

I'd want it to be a "sidways" comic, though! If it's cheaper, you bet your tookas! I'm still stunned at the way comics have increased in price over the years. They were 12 cents when I started buying them!!!

There's nothing like going to the store and turning the pages!:cool:

I wouldn't buy the book.

I like to read my comics while the collection of pen, ink, ads and staples are in my hand.

Good God they best not be downloads only- it can't be a comic book if there is no book. I think you'd lose the special feeling you get when you turn the pages at the store. I love have my comics at home and taking them out and such, so if they were only on your computer they would lose their specialness.

I'd buy it (and happily so--especially if you can get page captures and have a reduced price) but I hate buying things online. Don't trust the internet like that.

Keep in mind that this is one issue of your favorite comic... you either buy it or skip an issue...

Side note

Ok no ads, at least not in between any pages.

Since I'm a cheap cheap man, I'd buy it, and prefer it to paper.

I would rather buy it,a comic book i can read.So lets say that you download it onto your computer,your computer`s data gets erased for some reason.It means you lost that issue,while with a comic,you would still have it.

What if your comic got burned or whatever... no real difference.. plus you could just download it again or make a backup.

I'd much rather have a physical copy to hold in my hands, especially when the rest of an arc or series has been printed as such.

I love reading comics in bed and I dont have a laptop, so I like mine in paper. Plus i want comics to stay paper, its an institution that needs to stay the same.

a comic book that is entirely a hologram on all the pages

but, not on the cover

Couldn't do it. Nothing thrills me more then recieving or running out to the local comic book store w/ friends and touching the issue w/ my own hands.
