DC Has Discussed A Marvel Unlimited-Style Digital Subscription Service
DC isn't ready to pull the trigger on a Marvel Unlimited-style comics subscription service yet, but it's something they've had discussions about.
There's lots of news from the DC Meet the Publishers panel at San Diego Comic-Con today. Most spectacularly, we learned about an Arkham Asylum sequel from Grant Morrison and Chris Burnham, and Nazi-punching Wonder Woman: Earth One sequel, part of a trilogy. We also heard about a new publishing line of "evergreen" stories for older readers, with BIG talent in the vein of Neil Gaiman.
The latest revelation came from the panel's Q&A session, where Bleeding Cool reporter Nick Kazden was live on the scene. During the Q&A, a fan asked about a Marvel Unlimited-style subscription service for DC's back catalog, and co-publisher Jim Lee confirmed that the company has had discussions about it.
"We're not ready to pull the trigger," Lee said.
Look for our full panel report shortly.
