Comic books have come a long way since The Adventures of Mr. Obadiah Oldbuck. If you know who Obadiah Oldbuck is, then you are either over 175 years old, or you know your comic book history. Kudos either way!
While they’ve changed throughout the years, comics still tell stories through picture panels accompanied by text above, inside or underneath. Millions of people collect and read comics every day, and now they have the option of reading them on their BlackBerry ® PlayBook ™ tablets.
I’ve put together a few classic comic books along with a popular reader specifically designed for your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, plus a shopper app that gives you an advanced list of pop-culture related merchandise released each week.
- Archie Strips Pack 1 Comic by ZERO-SUM, LTD.: This app includes 75 classic Archie Comics from one of the longest running comic strips appearing since the winter of 1942.
