A couple of days back, apparently Marvel put 2700+ comics from their archives online, in a pretty sweet online reader which works out especially well if you’ve got a widescreen monitor, but looks good regardless! There are 250 comics available for a limited time for free. You have to sign up for a free account to read the 250 intro comics, and if you like the reader/service/selection, you can buy an annual ($59.88) or monthly ($9.99) subscription…if not, there are 250 comics to read!

Now, if only DC Comics would do something similar. I’d really like to know what happened after Krona ripped a hole in the universe back in the 70’s (when I was younger, my dad had all the Green Lantern comic books up until a very climactic moment, and I’ve still not found the end of the story.)
