Releasing today on Switch, InkyPen allows users to read and store an entire library of comics on Nintendo's hybrid machine. A new trailer has been released to celebrate, showing off the different ways in which you'll be able to read your favourite stories.
From train journeys and your daily commute to breakfast time and gloomy nights in bed, having constant access to a huge collection of comics is undoubtedly a convenient way to enjoy the hobby. If you're willing to cough up a monthly subscription fee, you'll be able to enjoy reading either on the go or even on the big screen, sharing the view with friends and family.
As a reminder, InkyPen costs €7.99 / $7.99 a month and is exclusive to Nintendo Switch; you'll find comics such as Judge Dredd, Transformers, Robotech, and Battlestar Galactica, as well as video game-centric works like Dark Souls, Dishonored, Tekken, and Assassin’s Creed available to read at any time. Readers in Europe should find the app waiting for them as we speak; North American users will have access later today at 9am PT.

I will subscribe, but not this month... Too many expenses in the holiday season
Marvel comics and many other American comics are so different than European comics! Maybe it's a matter of where you grew up (Switzerland and Greece) but I'll stick with the European ones (if they have them).
I'm interested, but it wants payment before showing me the selection of comics available. I want to know what I'm paying for.
Free trial please! As smug as I was about physical comics, I wouldn’t mind checking this out. I just remember not enjoying them on my phone.
All digi-comic subscriptions should be jumping on this idea. I'd get something like this if it meant every Dark Horse and Image comic I could ever want to read. Would sign up for life.
After hearing u can’t preview or even see what your subscribing for - Not a chance
I subscribed after reading it is a European company (Norway) with the hope I'll find European comics as well. Fortunately, there are (started with Smurfs)
Is there anyone who has this that could comment on the library? (Maybe a NL review?) I haven't really dived into comics at all, but this could be a service I would start through.
Um, don't care too much about comics but I could stand to read The Walking Dead comics. Doubt they come included for $8 tho
Also, can it read Cbr/Cbz if you already have them? Again, I doubt it. But at least that would be something.
Its eeally kind of weird for them asking your creditcard information for payment without showing what your paying for in more detail. Jeez, what great mind at the development/marketing team came up with this amazing plan......
If you’ve not done it (and let’s be honest, who does!) check out the Terms and Conditions page of InkyPen.
