ComiXology Unlimited's Comic Book LibraryĬomiXology Unlimited advertises "over 25,000 comics & graphic novels." Numerically, that puts the service on roughly equal footing with competitors like Marvel Unlimited and DC Universe. While not necessarily the ideal reading experience, Guided View is an innovative way to make most comics readable on smaller devices like smartphones.
Comparing ComiXology side-by-side with Marvel Unlimited, the images are sharper and the text is noticeably more clear.ĬomiXology books can either be viewed in full-screen mode (with either one or two pages displayed at a time) or through the "Guided View" option, which zooms in on individual panels so you can read them one at a time. ComiXology's files are higher resolution, aimed at taking advantage of pricier tablets like the iPad Pro. The actual visual fidelity of the comics is one area where ComiXology Unlimited soundly trounces Marvel Unlimited. (See our guide for downloading ComiXology Unlimited comics to every device for more information.) If you’re just here for the ComiXology Unlimited freebies it isn’t a problem. However, that only impacts users looking to augment their Unlimited library by purchasing additional books. This is a result of the eternal feud between Apple and ComiXology's parent company Amazon. The iOS version doesn't allow users to directly purchase books in the app itself, instead directing them to the ComiXology website. There is one other app-specific quirk worth noting. The app lacks that feature, which can result in a lot of trial and error if you're simply trying to find a new Batman comic to read. The website at least offers an option to filter search results to include only those books available on Unlimited. There's no option to view a full, organized list of all available Unlimited titles. The one downside to Unlimited being integrated with the rest of ComiXology is that it can be difficult to navigate the Unlimited library if you don't know exactly what you're looking for.
