Thanks for the input thedocg. I guess it was my fault for not going into more detail docg. Until recently. I did not know ComiXology even existed. Then from the postings here, where we are discussing Free Comics, I, mistakenly, got the impression, since they were associated with Amazon, that they were a Major competitor in Free Comics. Then, when I go into their site, for the First time, and see 142 Free Comics, it was a pleasant let down for me because I see they are no factor/competitor in the FREE Comic market, at least IMO. A major company in Comics? By all means, in my opinion, and thru Amazon, they must be a thorn in the side of smaller Comic Store retailers. They are are probably the largest retailer of Comic Books in the World. That is strictly an off the cuff guess of mine. Maybe someone on board who has more knowledge of the industry, can verify it or deny my guess. But if not, they are at least pretty prominent, I would say. And, probably get even larger because once POWfolio becomes more mature---those that are reading the Free Comics might also want others in the series and the way I see the system set up they will have to order them thru Amazon. I think we all will concede that Amazon is in business to Sell Comics not to give them away. They are a Major Online Retailer Of All Goods from my point of view. Anyway docg, that is my way of making a short story longer. ComiXology is BIG, as Wikipedia put it, ComiXology "Services" 75,000 of them. Enjoy the rest of the weekend
