What's new in CLZ Comics Mobile? (page 2)
The CLZ developer team (Sven, Pim, Bernard and AJ) is currently working on a major v10.0 upgrade for your CLZ Comics mobile app. Early versions are already being tested by AJ, Justin and Taco.
ETA still unknown, but my best guess is “within 2 weeks”.
This update will bring ONE huge new feature, something that currently is THE number one request from our users.
Can you guess what the big new feature will be?
Let us know your guesses:
Happy New Comic Book Day everyone! This week we prepared 218 new issues with 474 releases overall.
This week DC Comics gives us #1 of the brand new series The Question: All Along the Watchtower and it stars former Gotham detective Renee Montoya as The Question. There’s no question this will be spectacular, so be sure to watch out for this one.
If you like your comics spooky and mysterious, then I would advice to check out #1 of Barstow, a new mini-series published by Dark Horse Comics. Barstow is the name of a town located in the middle of the Mojave Desert. Expect possessed locals and demonic battles in agent Miranda Diaz’ battle to find a missing colleague.
And finally, do you want to know the secret past of Minnie Mouse? If so, then be sure to check out What If…? Minnie Became Captain Marvel, published by Marvel Comics.
Happy Reading!
