Comic fans love talking about the "future" of comics. But impossibly, the "future" always ends up looking a heckuva lot like what we've always had. Sadface!
Marvel announced today that every one of its £3 superhero comics is now going to come with a code to download the digital version to the Marvel app, which is available on every major platform.
You're working late into the night, a deadline is approaching. Out of nowhere, your trusty computer collapses in a fit of exhaustion or pique, shouting error message numbers at you in a tourettic fit of indecipherable jargon. What's it all mean? How do you fix it? This. Like this.
The next time you're out stargazing with your children, please make sure you shield them from Orion and his glowing member. Or at least bring a little loin cloth you can hold up to the sky.
Dennis Publishing has launched an iPhone app its calling the Viz Strip Teaser, which has been designed to let users view sections of issues "in a format fully optimised for your phone."
There's so much one can learn about cameras, from ISO to white balance to aperture settings. And there is, for some reason, an irresistible urge to share that knowledge once you've learned it, even if no one's asking, and even if it's totally irrelevant to the conversation at hand.
Losing your password isn't funny. Well, it's not funny to you. To the rest of us, it can be hilarious. The sort of point-and-laugh hilarity that comes from losing access to a dating site right when you find the perfect girl. Comic artists have taken the pain, monotony, and humiliation of dealing with passwords and created something we can all agree on. Your passwords suck.
Nice password you got there! Super complicated, I love it. You know who else loves it? Computers! Because by carefully crafted a string of alphanumerical gibberish that you need tattooed on your palm to remember, you've made a password much easier to crack than, say, four simple unrelated words.
Do you think saving the world is all about explosions and fight scenes? Not at all. There's a lot of paperwork to keep S.H.I.E.L.D. running, and I'm sure this one-of-a-kind desk is where The Avengers stay on top of it.
The world of Android is complicated. One company hates another, some are secretly sharing beds... my God, it's just like high school! Well, a Manga arteeest took that concept and ran with it: welcome to Sweet Android High School.
Comics are cool now. Well, kind of cool. Acceptable. But it's not all pasty nerds reading comics in the dark in their parents' basements anymore—lots of us have moved on to reading in the dark in our own homes and apartments. Here's how to buy for the comic fanboy in your life.
Marvel's uncanny app is finally out on Android. The app lets you buy and read Marvel comics, from new stuff like the very awesome Spider Island to classics like the Dark Phoenix Saga. Go ahead and nerd out, because this is amazing news.
