That digital comics revolution I keep writing about (most recently here and here)? It’s only just getting started - check out the snazzy new kid on the block with the Marvel characters in the logo and the bazillion dollars from investors!

I realize that any pretense at a cohesive continuity tying together the many events Marvel is juggling flew out the window the week Steve Rogers showed up as an established character in 3 separate high-profile books.

But am I missing something or is it kind of odd that in Fall of the Hulks: Gamma, the aforementioned Rogers, the fugitive Avengers, and Bruce Banner - all of whom rank very high on Lord Osborn’s s**t list - get to walk around Washington government and military installations very publicly, and unmolested by the bazillions of military personnel of every branch and stripe they’re surrounded by, when they’re still the world’s most wanted? Or have we already skipped past Siege, the way we skipped past Rebirth?

If publishers aren’t gonna follow their own events, it seems unfair of them to expect consumers to shell out increasingly high cover prices to do so.

The digital comics revolution is looking stronger than ever in 2010, with Marvel and other major publishers publishing books for iPhone apps like Panelfly and Comixology’s Comics. Comics are moving onto gaming systems too - the new PSP comic store is really impressive, and it’s likely that the XBox 360 will integrate the digital comics service Longbox by year’s end.
Digital comics publisher Flashback Universe is both a contributor to and beneficiary of the continuing history of comics’ migration onto platforms other than pulp.  They’ve also done an excellent job of recounting the tale on their website - I’ve already posted a link to the first half of the piece; part two is now up, and brings the reader up to date on the state of the digital funnybook.
If you want to check out Flashback’s comics, I highly recommend another excellent iPhone comic reader app, ComicZeal.  It’s a fantastic reader, and includes a library of free downloadable comics, consisting of some spectacular Golden Age public domain books (including classic early adventures of Plastic Man and Blue Beetle, among others), and of a sampling of Flashback’s offerings.
