Gambit Online Digital

Webcomics will never replace actual, print comic books (hopefully), but things like this are exactly what the major companies need to do with them! While Marvel Digital came under some fire from retailers when it first premiered, I think it has redeemed itself and proven that it can really drive sales, as opposed to stealing them. Subscribers probably buy more comic books than non-subscribers, and Marvel is using the entire model to promote and push its titles.

Long before he joined the ranks of the X-Men, Gambit spent the earlier half of his life as a thief and roamed the world. Now, before Weapon X: First Class #1 bursts into comic shops, X-fans everywhere are in for a special treat! Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited is proud to present an all-new EXCLUSIVE story, shining a new light on the relationship between Gambit and Wolverine, right here!

Get ready to travel back down the dark halls of the Weapon X program, where mutants are held against their will and experiment on and anyone can be turned into the next living weapon!

Subscribers to Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited get to read Weapon X: First Class first and exclusively in a "Sneak Week" peek starting today through Monday, September 22nd after which it will be available for public viewing, for free!

Join Professor Xavier as he ventures deep into the mind of Wolverine, revisiting the first time the ragin' Cajun ever crossed paths with Logan! True Believers, you can't dare to miss this exciting new tale exclusively on Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited right now!
