| The future of comics is a hot topic of late. What do you want it to be? Payable? Print? Free with ads? Digital? Not sure if you know, but kindle has just made a deal allowing for Kindle based books on iPhones. Also, Apple is coming out with a 5-7 inch iTouch later this year. Many speculate that this will allow comics to be adapted to a piece of technology, rendering printed comics null and void. You decide, starting now! |

| I don't have enough money to buy comics, so I'd say Digital for free, but with ads _________________ Templates update : September the 30th 2020 -///- Gallery update : April 2nd 2022 ReImagining MMPR my universe. Super Secret Project done at 35.48% (11 out of 31) Avatar by me. | |

| Same as Dax and Kelly,I have to go all the way to the closest city to get comics and it's a real hassle,so digital and free would be cool. | |

| I think just keep them in stores, none of this digital crap. Its much better to actually hold the comic in your hands. | |

| Must agree with Spector, comics aren't comics if not printed.
Both Print and Digital would make everyone happy. | |

| I agree I think they should print them and have them digital and allow people to print themselves from a site after joining for a low price of 1 time joining. | |

| i agree with spector also, i think the feel of having a collection of comics is just awesome and you don't get that if it's digital, anyone could access them and it just wouldn't be as special. | |

| I'd go for both print and digital, but with a better digital viewer than Marvels current piece of crap. | |

It would probably be something very close to how iTunes works. |
