# Marvel Unlimited Now on iOS

A few years ago before I started regularly blogging when I had first picked up my iPad, I started reading comic books on the iPad.  I had never read a lot of comic books. But I love the story lines that I new from cartoons and movies.

What kept me from really getting into comic books at the time was the fact that I could get Marvel Unlimited on my computer for $60 a year, but I had to purchase individual comics on the iPad.  It has taken nearly 3 years, but it appears that Marvel believes that the iPad is here to stay.  [Marvel Unlimited for iPad](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/marvel-unlimited/id607205403?mt=8) is now available.

The subscription is $9.99 a month, or $119.88 a year (twice as much as the computer only Marvel Unlimited), but right now it is 50% off, or $59.88.  CNet says it is a very [1.0 experience](http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-31747_7-57573269-243/read-unlimited-comics-on-your-iphone-or-ipad/).  You cannot try the unlimited for free.  But there are several free comics that you can read to get a sense of the experience.  Zooming and page turns are a bit clunky, but the visuals are very good.

Right now there are about 13000 comic books available, but they are all at least 6 months old.  There is a limit to only 6 comics that can be downloaded for offline reading at a time.
