DC Comics Explode On To PSP

Any news on when the comic service will expand in europe – namely to the netherlands? – we’d be happy to have them in english!

BATMAN! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any news on a release in Germany?

My thoughts exactly

Hello there, how is it going? And welcome back Pete.
So, any news about release for the rest of us?
or news about Cross region gifting?

Just wondering, are there any chance we get some Mandrake realeased on the store?

Some info I found out about who we can contact about the Comics for us Scandinavians:
Seems Nordisk Film is handeling atleast the hardware part of playstation here In Norway (and Rest of Scandinavia) http://www.nordiskfilm.com/

Good place for us Scandinavians to post and ask for the comics to come to us is at http://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/Norsk-lobby/PSN-Digital-Comics/ td-p/11001470

Oh, And thanks for the 5 free comics in this update.

You’d think expanding the service would be more profitable than just feeding the small audience you have right now.

Jesus christ.

Any plan for this service in France? =/

For the moment I use my North American PSN account to download and read some comics, but I’d really enjoy the same thing in French, as I am… French.

Anyway, still a good news! DC Comics is full of great titles!

Are you guys getting anywhere with the PS3 Digital Comics?

Why would someone want to collect comics digitally?

You can’t sit back and admire your pile, nor trade with other enthusiasts.

What’s the point exactly?

Been waiting for DC, so happy they finally decided to join the service

Can someone tell us why this isn’t available in the Netherlands (and other countries) ?

Language can’t be an issue here, most of us can read English and don’t even want translations.

This is great, congratulations, and THANK YOU!

But one small thing… I can’t find Toy Story 3 in UK Store.
I don’t think it’s there, I mentioned in last week’s post.

Again, thank you very much, this is the best news I’ve had in a while.

Like I said on Twitter to you Pete, really congratulations to all the team on finally getting DC secured and by the looks of it having more content than they have on there own brand new iPhone app.

I can imagine you having a few very happy people around the studio this last week or so knowing not only did you have the update for the digital reader ready (which is better than I had hoped by the way ) but you had this little secret to reveal!

Looks like DC aren’t pulling any punches with this either with the likes of Batman: Hush, Green Lantern: Rebirth and both Fables and Planetary (was going to request those two series when I seen the news) in the launch lineup. Plus it will be good to finally be able to check out all those video game IPs that Wildstorm have been doing comics for, especially God of War.

Actually you know what? I’m far more excited about DC hitting PSN Comics than anything that came out of E3 last week

Once again, thanks for the great service

PLEASE i want comics on the French PSN

Give me Watchmen or give me death!

Great news thanks, does anyone know if Dark Horse will join now?

If you guys are expanding to Norway you should consider the Norwegian comic stripes Pondus and Kollektivet

I hope this means Watchmen! Wow, the Comics store has come a long way! And what would it be without DC Comics?

Why isn’t this service available in Spain? Not even English comics?

Nananananana Batman!
Nananananana DC!
Nananananana Toy Storeee!

@NotZed, I’m a fan of digital comics for a lot of reasons. Loads of comics with one device; easier to obtain, especially if ordering comics online is your only option and you don’t have to worry about keeping your collection in pristine condition. Also, it’s much easier to find very rare, out of print comics.

Are we getting Megatokyo since the new volumes were published by DC?

I’d also like to request once more a comic store for Portugal

Chalk up another person for the Watchmen wishlist… having that would kickstart my digital comic tastebuds into action!

Bronze era Batman – 1972 – 1984

All Jack Kirbys DC work (New Gods, jimmie Olsen, Mister Miracle)

Make it happen Digital Comics!!… be all you can be!!!

I love you right now.

Though don’t slow down just yet. You need to get more DC comics in soon.

That’s great news. I’m a DC guy mainly so it’s great to see they’ve joined in on this too.

Wow, I used to read comics back when DC started the Vertigo range. I’d definitley be interested again if you bring the comic reader to the PS3, especially if you re-release some of the older titles like Sandman, Doom Patrol, Hell Blazer and Shade:The Changing Man.

LMAO!
Digital Comics AND Detective Comics BOTH have the same initials (DC)! =D

Whoot!
Good news for Digital Comics countries But it’s not available in Belgium

Why don’t they open a global PSN Store? One place for millions users from different countries?

Congratulations to DC and PlayStation.

Great news. I am a huge fan of DC and this just made my day (more than englands result)
THANK YOU PS Digital Comics and DC Comics \o/

Oooh! Requests for when the service finally reaches the Netherlands!

Suske & Wiske.

Yeah, that’s basically it. I have a friend who basically loves these kind of comics, so it would be pretty neat for him if he were able to buy it on PSN.

Oh yeah, and it might be hard to get the rights, especially since I don’t even know if it still exists yet, but De Stamgasten. Perhaps not really all that appropriate though, so I’m not counting on that one.

Awesome, I am a big fan of Resistance. I have all the games and the book. But I don’t have the comics. It seemed pretty crazy that there were comics about a PlayStation franchise that weren’t available on the PS comic store. Very glad to see them up there. They will be my first purchase from the store. After I finish Peace Walker. That shouldn’t take long, right?

you kept this quiet, very sneaky, but i forgive you.
great to see dc on board, had to happen sooner or later, especially with the dcu mmo on the home stretch now.
i just ordered another store card and already you’ll have me spending all of it.
dc fans in the uk aren’t really that well catered for outside of the dedicated comic shops so this will be very handy.
i’d like to see some wonderwoman as well as just superman and batman, and the trinity series would be fantastic.
requests already and they only launched yesterday.
the comic book store is building up quite a library, i’d buy them all if i had the money, maybe when i win the lottery.

Great! I’m looking forward to have DC in Germany!

Is Czech Republic even considered for the store expansion, or are we getting screwed like in all the other cases?

Expanding the comic store should be the number one priority. Your customers are growing impatient with all that great news but no way to obtain the content.
It’s been half a year and there is still no estimate on when to expect an expansion.

Thanks for the answers we all wanted. keep up the good work. lookin’ forward to dutch release.

@Pauline

Good effort on the Norwegian language there

Hopefully Blacksad will come in a translated (to English that is) state also, as my French is as good as my ability to play the violin (i.e not very good). Two of the arcs were translated to Norwegian in the EON-magazine, but somehow it lost some ..err.. spirit, when some of the characters were talking Norwegian slang

Eagerly awaiting the international (in the true sense of the word)/Norwegian comic reader/Store!
