Back in my collecting days I went into the comics shop and picked and chose what I wanted. Why should it be any different online? Marvel got a ton of my money in the 80s and 90s. They would get a ton more from people under this model. I don't want to pay a subsription fee for books I'm not interested in. I'm glad they're think about the future, but they need to go in the right direction. Joe and Brian hit the nail right on the head.

I’m glad they’re think about the future, but they need to go in the right direction.

Come up with the comics version of iTunes where I can buy the issues I want, download/keep them, AND give me the full catalog from 1933 to present... then I'll give them a ton of dough. Agreed.

It's better for the readers.
