Vladamire Dracos Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Go here and enter coupon code CAP734 during signup for 1 month free access to Marvel's Digital Comics - no billing info needed, available only to new members. Marvel has over 9,000 comics currently in their archive, which is one of the reasons I'm posting this here instead of the Dog Pound- this would make a super useful resource for those interested in making a Marvel Universe mod, especially for pictures: http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/steelabjur/TheMoleMan.jpg http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/steelabjur/Taskmaster.jpg Enjoy!

Jaysin Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I decided to read some Deadpool and it stopped me after a few pages saying I have to be a premium member Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd1 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I decided to read some Deadpool and it stopped me after a few pages saying I have to be a premium member In every issue? Did you put the coupon code in? I haven't been stopped yet, although it may simply be that I have been lucky so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did put the code in. I read What if Legion Killed Magneto and Xavier? and then I went to start on Deadpool #1 from 1997 and after 4 pages it stopped me saying that I need to be a Premium member to continue and that being a premium member also grants me access to over 6000 more titles.

I checked and it's the same for me. Thought it seemed a bit too good to be true! When you open a comic, click on the page button at the bottom and it will bring up a preview of all the pages (as they load). If the comic requires premium subscription then the pages will be replaced with a padlock. At least you won't start a story without being unable to finish it. Deadpool #1 from 1994, for example, is free to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, there's other methods of reading them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd1 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 I have the ones from 94 Ah. I don't own a single comic (finally found a use for the library!), so it's all a bonus for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladamire Dracos Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 Hate to ask an obvious question, but are you sure you entered the code correctly? Oh, and I took another look at the page, make sure you have the single month (the $9.99) option selected. You should have access to all 9,000+ titles they have for viewing if you did it correctly.

Yes, I'm sure I entered it correctly. I got the confirmation code and everything. I even signed up with another email making sure I did and its doing the exact same thing. Can you view every page of Deadpool #1 from 1997? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just did a check, getting the same thing. #2 can be read completely through though. Must be a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoisonedSuperman Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Thank you!! As someone who has jsut been getting into this comic this is going to be huge and money saving more importantly. I've decided to start with Punisher 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crayon Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Just a thought. Anyone reading through these who is interested with helping out modders or picture cutters, if you see a picture that would make a good cut (especially if it's of obscure, vintage, or support characters) make sure you save a picture somewhere for later use. Lots of times the only way to find useful pictures of less popular/modern characters is in the actual comic books, and as Adam said, a good gameworld will need high and low leveled characters, not to mention non-super hero allies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
