Ok, i just recently got into reading comic books again and to get to the point of this post i got hooked into the marvel universe. Now this brings in a problem as there have been several series and events i would like to read to "catch me up" to today but doing this by buying all the trade paperbacks or the single issues is just not financaly sound. So i decided i would invest $53 into a marvel digital comic subscription, they say they have 12000+ issues and when i looked at what they had before i purchased they had all the ones i wanted to read. (Captain America, Moon Knight, New Avengers....). Great! let's do this. So i give them my money and start reading, then i get to the end of issue 18 of New Avengers and click to goto the next issue and it sends me to issue 21.... well that was strange, so i pull up the issue list and sure enough issues 19,20,23-25,29-32,41 and 42 are missing from the list. So i check some others that i am reading and they all have the same problems missing at least 7 issues out of the series. So i fire off a question to support and am waiting to hear back. But my point is if you are going to put up a series, put it all up after spending $53 i am not going to go and purchase $44 of back issues to fill the gaps (that is just one series).
