Dark Horse Comics Comes To ComiXology
Good for them. It's about freakin' time, even though I don't read the devils format digital comics, outside of freebies.
I want to know if they are going to allow the Dark Horse app and Comixology app to sync so your Dark Horse books will show up on your Comixology account. Anyone know anything about this possibly?

Comixology confirmed on Twitter that at the moment, no. Hopefully they do so in the future.
I quit reading because of their stupid app.....
This has been a long time coming and is welcome, my god so welcome. But...and you knew there was a 'but,' right? Don't let me down here. Like so many others, I want my DH purchases synced to my Comixology account, the titles I bought from Dark Horse grandfathered in. I won't be buying them again either way, it's just a customer service consideration from both companies.
I'll refrain from whining that before that, I bought a bunch of DH titles on Kindle (e.g. all of Ghost and a bunch of Hellboy) and...oh no, I just whined about it. Dangit! That's probably never going to happen but I can dream.
