Archie has been pushing the sale of their comics over digital services for awhile now. While initially the selection of Sonic comics over these digital services have been limited, they have gradually begun to improve.
Now, with the launch of the Sonic Comic app for iTunes, it seems they are finally beginning to offer more comics over the service, many of them only available exclusively through this app. This new app has over 50 issues from the Archie Sonic series and it’s spin offs. Most are selling for $.99, a third of the comic’s current retail price. These issues span from the first mini series released in the early 90s, all the way through to much more recent comics from Ian Flynn’s run. The app itself can be downloaded for free on the iPhone and iPad. It was created by iVerse, which sells a variety of comics digitally.
