Der US-Verlag Dark Horse Comics hat scheinbar einen Deal mit der Amazon Firma ComiXology vereinbart und wird künftig Print-Versionen von bisher exklusiv auf ComiXology digital verfügbaren Comic-Titeln bringen.

Die Ausgaben werden demnach erstmals in Print-Form für den US-Markt veröffentlicht, was möglicherweise auch die Tür für potentielle deutschsprachige Publikationen öffnen könnte. Ich betone: könnte!

Die sogenannten ComiXology Originals werden ihr Print-Debüt nach aktuellem Stand 2021 geben. Die ersten nagekündigten Titel lesen sich wie folgt:
