GlobalComix: Comic Book Reader

It’s a monthly subscription, like a Netflix for comics. It’s got some good comics in there like spawn, and the boys and more that you might not have ever heard of. Long story short I recommended.

Finally a place where good stories can live. Now that we can download and read online, this service is damn near perfect. No, it’s not free, nor it should be, we want to support the artists and the industry, but it’s got exceptional value. If you’re a comic book fan you know what an expensive hobby this is. Now you can read until your eyes bleed and save $$ and space for those really unique titles you want to own. No Marvel or DC? No problem! You got the amazing catalogues of Image, Boom!, ONI, Vault, TKO, AWA and many others as well as Indy creators. Thanks, Global Comix for bringing them all together!

I got the app originally to read twd comics. I paid for a month of subscription, been using it for about a week and then when I open the app, it logged me out… now it won’t let me log in but it will let me log in on the website!?!? I then tried to rest my password to see if that would make a difference but I can’t find it on the website, since that is where it redirects me… Please get this fixed because I am not the only one having this issue. trust me I was satisfied with the app until this happened… but I’ve already paid for a month so once I get logged in (if I even can) I won’t be continuing to use the app unless these things are fixed…

You can read a lot of comics before you hit the paywall so use it if your’e not sure you want to buy a comic or not. It also doesn’t have marvel or dc so keep that in mind.

So many of my fave comics, and some are even vertical so I’m re-reading my faves. A lot of really good free stuff too, and the annual sub is a great deal for how much is on here.

I open the app for the first time ever and it says “oops, looks like we’re having some connections issues” i still get this error.

The discoverability feels a bit chaotic, at least on mobile. I like that it tries to suggest comics based on what you like, but the Home Screen ends up being overloaded with lists of genres, at least on mobile. The search function could be improved by allowing to search for multiple genres, as well as adding more specific search fields. The app does a good job of this, but it’s important for a comic aggregator to get this optimized. Secondly, reading the comics themselves doesn’t feel very smooth. I like to tap-and-drag while viewing the whole comic page, but it pretty cramped and slightly unresponsive. Panel-by-panel is slightly better, but both of these options feel better on the Hoopla app. With that being said, the variety of comics, monthly sub, app aesthetics and layout, and a majority of the app functionality are good or above average.

Been reading invincible for the past two weeks and enjoying every moment. And many more interesting comics are here too. Highly recommend.

Great selection. Only downside is that there isn’t a clear path to skip ahead in the omnibus’s.

This app is very cool. I can read whatever comics I want.
