What comics are available for the Kindle?

Alan Gardner11 mins

Tom Mason took the time to browse Amazon’s selection of comics for the Kindle.

Did you get a Kindle for Christmas? Want to fill it up with comics? I went to Amazon this afternoon and searched their official comics section – but only the first 700 listings (yes, I have that kind of free time) out of around 3800 or so and found a few things that I’d put on my Kindle.

Of course, your mileage may vary…

I looked over Amazon’s selection and was surprised – they had more comics than I expected. Since the Kindle doesn’t display color, I can’t imagine many of the comics (black and white comic strips notwithstanding) to be very engaging.

Anyone else using their Kindle for reading comics?

One thought on “What comics are available for the Kindle?”

  1. I got a Kindle last Christmas. I most definitely do not enjoy reading comics on it (I’ve sampled several different books) and, like many people I know, hoped to find an iPad under the Christmas tree this year (partly) because reading comics/cartoons on it is pretty cool. Still, nothing electronic beats holding a real book in my hands. In the last month alone I’ve bought seven new cartoon books.
