    Default no new Marvel comics this week? Problems with Comixology!

    So, I checked out this week's release date. DC comics were released this week as usual, but according to Comixology no new Marvel comics are set to be released this week. I thought this was strange, but I thought maybe Marvel is having a skip week. I mean... everybody is entitled to a little R&R, right? So, I checked the Marvel releases for next week, and again, zip, nada.

    Does anybody understand what is going on?

    P.S. I checked out this week's new Marvel comics at https://www.marvel.com/articles/comi...ases-full-list. So, the problem is obviously with Comixology. Am I the only one experiencing this?

    I believe this is the week that everything is moving to Amazon.

    It may be there

    It's also this week that everything was moving to Penguin. And there's been reports of major issues with deliveries, and a batch of comics going missing!

    Could that have resulted in last minute digital withdrawals, if issues aren't in the shops?

    I use Amazon to log into my Comixology and IIRC Amazon bought Comixology. I guess Marvel is still using them for digital

    Here's the story about Amazon acquiring Comixology from Bleeding Cool.


    But more alarming are the stories on BleedingCool about the shipping of packages by Marvel's new distributor, Penguin/Random House. Marvel dropped Diamond Distributors and Penguin took over as of October 1st. Comic shop owners are reporting badly packaged shipments arriving damaged.
    Quote from one store:
    We received our books today crammed in incredibly tiny boxes that had zero protection from the rigors of shipping and literally 70% of our books where damaged. I can only imagine how things went industry wide. It seems that these guys think they can ship comics like they ship their novels to book stores and everything will be fine. I can only imagine how much money they will be losing over the amount of damaged copies they will have to replace."

    I wonder if the big two will ever stop using Comixology and just use their dedicated apps

    They'd lose out on potential sales that way. There are a lot of Amazon customers.

    You have to use the US site. I tried changing the country code in the url, and .ca just gives you a blank page, and so does co.uk.

    For now you can still use Comixology. They have all the Marvel titles that came out today. I have to think you still will be able to use it since I've bought some digital versions of TPBSs and Marvel Masterworks over there when they had a sale a year or so ago.

    Is comixology just completely broken for anyone else right now? I can put comics on my kindle, but my iPhone app isn’t updating.

    Mine is working fine but then I linked my Comixology to Amazon when I first set it up. Try that if you haven't already. On Comixology, go to My Account and you will see the link there. I already had an Amazon account to link to at the time. I never really had a separate Comixology login in since I had done the link with my Amazon account at the very beginning. But it should work the other way around...just link it to Amazon. I'm assuming if you didn't have an Amazon account it would have you create one.

    Well, I was supposed to get six Marvel titles this week ~ three ongoings and three mini-series ~ and everything from Marvel came in damaged....the entire order!
    (Saw the video my old shop puts out every Tuesday night....they had every Marvel title I would have gotten except New Mutants, which they were shorted on, so I don’t know what to tell you).
