On Saturday, while everyone else was running around at C2E2, Bleeding Cool was the first to report on the new ComiXology App and the change in policy that would stop in-App purchases on iPhone and iPads, and stop Google Play purchases on Android devices. This is in line with newly-purchaser Amazon's similar policy on the Kindle which[...]

By Michele Brittany, a West Coast Bleeding Cool Correspondent In the wake of Amazon's announcement to acquire comiXology, at Friday afternoon's Wondercon Anaheim panel "Comixology, Ask Me Anything," VP of Communications & Marketing for ComiXology Chip Mosher and Co-founder of ComiXology and CEO David Steinberger, braced for questions related to the acquisition.

Bleeding Cool first reported on high level rumours that Amazon was to buy ComiXology in three to six weeks time, three weeks ago (thanks to the New York Business Journal for noting that one). It was fuelled by other rumours that a number of comic book publishers's exclusive deals with ComiXology were going to come to[...]

  Business Insider's Gus Lubin has talked about  buying comics on ComiXology. He says, I used to go to Forbidden Planet in Manhattan every Wednesday to browse new comics. But since my recent discovery of Comics by comiXology, the company that Amazon just bought for an undisclosed amount, I can't see myself regularly going to a comic store ever again. He also admits[...]
