Mar Hi Everyone – It’s time for the weekly digital comics update for the PSP. As mentioned last week Markosia Enterprises has joined the Digital Comics team. This week they made their debut on the store and brought a house-warming gift for all of our readers, a free comic, Kong: King of Skull Island. Now I’m sure a lot of you have questions after King Kong’s fall from the Empire State Building. Luckily all of your questions and more will be answered in this prequel/sequel based on the book by Joe DeVito.
Also, another highlight of the week comes from IDW as they deliver a new series from the Transformer franchise, Transformers Movie Sequel: The Reign of Starscream. The comic comes with audio commentary. If you have never experienced audio commentary or don’t know how to turn it on, you can enable this sweet feature under the extras tab on the summary screen for titles that support audio commentary.
As always if you need or crave more info go on digital comics go to www.playstationcomics.com.

When is the Canadian store getting Comics?
When is the Canadian store getting a TV/Movie section?
The US is able to download TV shows, movies, and now comics, and the UK/EU stores have a wicked app (imo) called VidZone to watch the latest Music Videos.
What do Canadians get? The bare minimum, that’s what.

@3 TriCykle
There’s the playstation blog share. Someone made it a suggestion to bring the stores over to Canada. Go vote it up! Enough votes and it’ll probably be a lot more productive than comments here. I kind of have my doubts they hardly even read any of the comments for the video/comic/store updates…

I bought my PS3 for games, it is great that you offer different things like these digital comics, however I should think the priority on PS Store Update days should be the Games content before anything else.
Video Store and Comics Updates are consistently posted much earlier than the Games update on a regular basis.

Bring manga to the comic store!!!

@Grace Chen
Please add Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #42 to the store and complete the “One More Day” story arc. Now that the “Brand New Day” arc is on the store I hope this is still being worked on.

For all the guys that want Manga on PSN. Will you guys chill, it takes time to bring it over. I will say this again, Japan’s PSN doesn’t even have Marvel Comic or any western Comic at all on their Digital Comic store. So it looks like as long we don’t have manga on PSN, Japan will not have Marvel Comic on PSN. People in Japan are probably telling Sony “Where’s our Marvel Comic”. I know people in Japan who love Marvel Comic (like Ruroni Kenshin’s creator is a big fan of X-men) and want it badly as much as we want manga in USA. So would you guys just shut up about the manga stuff, this stuff take time for it to come. The day we get manga is the same day Japan get Marvel Comic.

For those who haven’t yet followed Grace’s advice and checked out the playstationcomics.com website, here’s what awaits you when you attempt to pick your region if you’re unfortunate enough to be without said service:
“We’re not quite ready for you yet.
We do plan to launch the service in as many countries as possible, we just can’t be certain when. Please check back here now and then, and who knows…”
Very illuminating.

This is retarded. Both the video store and Comic store get updated on time each week but not the PlayStation Store update.
22
+ Dmon92 on March 25th, 2010 at 3:54 pm said:
Why is that the store is constantly being updated around 9 or 10?
Might as well just do it the next day.

A fine week, but still no update to the comicviewer.

Why!? sony will u stop failing and update at 6pm sharp!?
26
+ Kenophobia on March 25th, 2010 at 4:27 pm said:
Seriously, the store should just say it’s going to update the next day. This whole addition 3 hrs before the next day is stupid, shame on you PSN.
27
+ Dmon92 on March 25th, 2010 at 4:30 pm said:
@#24
Yes they do, and like #26 said, it’s 3 hours before the next day.
Just do it on Friday instead of making some of those who do wait, wait longer.
28
+ mywhitenoise on March 25th, 2010 at 4:31 pm said:
@22 No, they should update it the minute the content is ready. There’s absolutely no reason why we should wait for Thursday updates when both Nintendo and Microsoft put their content up whenever they can. Why do we have to wait 2 days more than the 360 people do?

Why don’t all you people complaining just check the store on Friday. Problem solved.
31
+ mrdeadhead on March 25th, 2010 at 4:43 pm said:
@27, how is delaying the update till friday going to help anything at all? so what if it’s 3 hours away from friday. if they say their going to up date on thursday it’s thursday allllll day. why do people get so worked up about the store updates a few hours is not going to kill you, and a lot of people at playstation are probably a little preoccupied with PAX East, and the playstation.blog meet-up which is happening right now, maybe they want some content from that to post, maybe they’re checking on something, maybe they’re doing whatever, it doesn’t matter you’ll get the update when you get it.

+ BlooodyCow on March 25th, 2010 at 4:48 pm said:
@27 mrdeadhead
You ever heard of something call a schedule and being on time?
Wait never mind. The PlayStation Store doesn’t not have a schedule other than updating on Thursday. Sony seems to favor the Comic and Video store more because those two stores are always being updating on time.

+ Kenophobia on March 25th, 2010 at 4:52 pm said:
Haha, must be a nice job not having any schedule or anything.

+ DiscoJer on March 25th, 2010 at 5:11 pm said:
So how did the PSP lose market share to the iPhone? Lack of timely updates to the PSN was almost certainly a factor.
I mean, who wants dozens of games every day, when you can get them once a week (maybe), late night on a Thursday evening.

+ PUERTO_ROCK24 on March 25th, 2010 at 5:19 pm said:
@40
cant compare iphone games to psp games
how many of those dozen games that come out everyday are actually good?
i agree ps store takes way to long. it feels like there scrabbling to put something up before midnight.

I am not really going to care about this feature until we get Dark Horse and DC comics. I really need my green lantern fix. And with batman being as popular as he is. Also, i want new comics. All the marvel on there is over 2 and 3 years old.
