Today comiXology, the revolutionary cloud-based digital comics platform, proudly announced a digital distribution agreement with Dark Horse Comics, the largest independent comic book publisher, to bring their full digital catalog of collections, graphic novels, and manga to comiXology’s platform! Now, all Dark Horse Comics collections, graphic novels, and manga will be available on comiXology the same day the print versions arrive in bookstores.

“We are very excited to announce that we have reached an agreement which brings the Dark Horse catalogue found in the Kindle Store to the comiXology platform,” remarked President and Publisher of Dark Horse Comics Mike Richardson. “For the first time, hundreds of Dark Horse graphic novels will be available to comiXology’s devoted readers. The technology is stellar and we are pleased that our books will be showcased flawlessly.”

“I’ve been a fan of Dark Horse since I was a kid – and have continued to be so throughout their rich history – so this is an important addition to comiXology not only for me personally, but for our customers,” said comiXology co-founder and CEO David Steinberger. “ComiXology fans have requested Dark Horse from day one and now they’ll get their wish by being able to read titles likeHellboy, Sin City, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Goon right now on comiXology, in terrific HD and in Guided View!”

More than 800 titles launch today on comiXology from Dark Horse, including the following fan-favorites:

300
Astro Boy
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Blacksad
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Fear Agent
Frank Miller’s Sin City
Hellboy
MIND MGMT
Serenity
Usagi Yojimbo
The Strain

Umbrella Academy
Halo
Lone Wolf and Cub

With over 75,000 comics, graphic novels and manga from more than 75 publishers, comiXology offers the widest selection of digital comics in the world. ComiXology’s immense catalog and cinematic Guided View reading experience make it the best digital platform for comic and graphic novel fans worldwide.

Good for them. It's about freakin' time, even though I don't read the devils format digital comics, outside of freebies.

This will mean I'll actually consider a few of their titles. Glad they finally did it.

Very nice. Never purchased any Dark Horse books mostly because of the separate apps and had plenty to read already on Comixology. Definitely going to take a look, but will probably wait until they start having sales.

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.

Does your dark horse purchases sync with your comixology? I've never really cared about the separate app thing, besides having to check that separately for sales and stuff.

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.
