snowkatt: im hoping for involvement from marvel or dc but that probably wont happen
here is hoping for a gijoe bundle next

pakopakojr: Nope. They want ad revenue from their stuff more. Which brings to question who owns G.I. Joe at the moment (I hear they did another reboot?) -- IDW or DDP or UDON or what?
hasbro still owns and has always owned gi joe

the comic book liscence is currently in the hands of IDW

who continued the marvel comics continuity with issue 156 and with larry hama who wrote all of them
they are around issue 200 now

and off course their own reboot but i dont know much about that

They're still doing it? I thought I heard (probably back in January) that Larry had ended/was ending his run?

snowkatt: if this happens every month i might get more comics then i can read ( i already have a huge amount of comics )
I know. That's the reason I skipped Dr Who, Transformers and Star Trek. I've never picked any of those series and I rather finish reading the ones I do read than starting new franchises.

I don't see Marvel or DC going DRM-Free anytime soon but other smaller imprints might be persuaded.

damn it i missed doctor who

i am a transformers fan though so that is what got me interested
Technically Marvel or DC could be featured as a humble bundle even with DRM provided they have a key redemption system similar to the Steam keys with games; not that I'd want Humble to embrace DRMed book.

Yeah, Comixology codes.

A game in a book bundle?! That's madness!

Understandable, since the game is based on the Shadowman books in the bta tier.

I guess, but it's still weird.

Well, the Witcher 2 and 3 include comics...
:-)

I think it's a fine idea to bring comic fans to gaming. Shame is not a GOG key, of course.
