Digital Comics Vendor Comixology Debuts ‘All Access Angouleme’
To mark the opening of the Angoulême Comics Festival, digital comics vendor Comixology is debuting All Access Angouleme, a promotion combining discounted comics and round the clock social media coverage of the show. The Angoulême International Comics Festival runs January 29- February 1 in France.
During the show Comixology will dramatically cut prices on a wide variety of U.S. comics, graphic novels, manga and bandes dessinées (French comics) in multiple languages. Comixology will also provide fans constant updates on the show via its Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook and Google+ accounts. Noting the show’s commemoration of the slain Charlie Hebdo cartoonists, Comixology cofounder David Steinberger said, “We are honored to highlight France’s deep commitment to cartoonists everywhere.”
