=============================

In advance of our release of the full digital comics library, we will be testing our system by releasing all currently digitized comic books from the Golden Age, through the Bronze Age. NBD.

We currently have a large selection of these titles, and we’re gearing up to fill the rest in with every possible digitized comic out there!

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION:

• PARDON OUR DUST: This is our way of stress-testing the system and user experience. As our lucky fans, you get to experience all the joys of launching a whole universe together! Please be patient, let us know your feedback, and enjoy the ride.

• BUT I JUST READ THAT! Yes, many of what you see on the list below are already represented on the service. In the interest of providing you a complete list of what will represent these eras, we have given you the comple te library additions to come next week combined with its long-lost companions!

• BLAST FROM THE PAST: Not ALL comics from these eras have been digitized. As they are digitized by the relevant teams, they will be provided on the service. (More details TBD.)

• MIND THE GAP: You will notice random gaps that seem completely out of place- for example, Action Comics #342, then Action #344. Look forward to a scintillating exposé on the fascinating world of archiving, digitization, and publication history in the future to explain these gaps!

• DON’T PANIC: Some of the updated search and sorting functionality will roll out with these comics, but not ALL.

:smiley: “That all sounds amazing, I’m so excited! What comics will there be, exactly?” :smiley:

Great question, fake person! Once this batch of comics has finished rolling out, you will see the following :star2:2,739​:star2: Golden, Silver & Bronze Age titles, with notable gaps where digitization is still waiting to occur:

All these additions! I am so excited! Even AMETHYST! I am super happy right now. I can’t wait for these to drop. This gives me a starting place. I look forward to when the rest come on here as well, but OMG this is so wonderful to see the titles that will be here from these eras. I am going to be super busy forever.

SO excited for Amethyst finally. I’m also gathering from this that as these older issues are being digitized, the gaps will be filled.
