Here's the Third Digital Wave of Dynamite Free First Issues

Published Wed, 08 Apr 2020 12:00:02 -0500

A new round of free Dynamite first issues hits the web this week. An industry-wide shutdown has halted most comic book publishing in the direct market, though collections continue to be published in bookstores and comic book retailers that remain open. The entire industry, and its community of fans, however, are stuck in a state of limbo. There are no installments in the stories of Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, the X-Men, or dozens of other characters whose monthly or bi-weekly adventures have entertained readers for decades. So, what is a comic book reader meant to do when there are no new comics to read? Well, it's time to try some old comics. Many publishers outside the "Big Two" of Marvel and DC are treating the shutdown as an opportunity to get readers to try comics they might not have had the bandwidth before in the overcrowded comics market. One of those publishers is Dynamite Entertainment, which enters its third week of releasing free #1 issues for readers to try out on digital comic apps. Check out the press release below for more details.
