There are only a handful of players involved in the whole Netflix for comics scene, and ComicBlitz is one of the most successful. The company launched early last year, but have been attracting all of the indie publishers. This has attracted the attention of IDW who is bringing GI Joe, Star Trek, My Little Pony, Dungeons & Dragons, Locke & Key, The Crow, Angel, Judge Dredd and more. Upcoming titles include 30 Days of Night, Jem and The Holograms, Angry Birds, Skylanders, Samurai Jack, The Maxx, and Danger Girl to the platform.
ComicBlitz now has an extensive library of over 4,500 comics and graphic novels. Some of their more notable publishing partners include Valiant, Dynamite, Zenescope, Action Lab, Aspen, Red 5, Alterna and now IDW.
You can checkout the ComicBlitz service, but only if you have an iPhone or iPad. The company recently lowered their monthly subscription cost from $9.99 to $7.99 and are also offering a basic plan that gives access to 10 comics a month for $3.99.
