Take comics everywhere you go

Join the reading revolution with the new Digital Reader on PSP, kicking off with Digital Comics.

A great new service on PSP will revolutionise the way you read and open up a whole range of media to your fingertips - welcome to the Digital Reader.

The Digital Reader service will start with Digital Comics in December 2009, giving you a brand new way to read comic books. Putting you in control of a huge library of digital comics, the service lets you download hundreds of classic and new comics from PlayStation Store to your PSP, which you can read the way you want, wherever you are.

With some of the biggest names in comics, including content from Marvel Entertainment and IDW Publishing, characters and series such as Spider-Man, X-Men, the Fantastic Four, Transformers and Star Trek will be delivered directly to your hands, as well as graphic novels and comics from a variety of local publishers and the latest underground sensations.

More titles will arrive on PlayStation Store with monthly content updates, offering a huge choice of quality titles at your fingertips, allowing you to take your favourite comic characters with you on the move.

"This is a great new service that offers PSP owners even more options for entertainment on the go and makes PSP a must for comics fans," says Isabelle Tomatis, European Marketing Manager, Hardware and Platforms, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.

"Digital Comics will sit alongside the new PlayStation Network video download service as yet another way that PSP offers a whole world of entertainment in your hands."

"PSP's new digital reader offers an unprecedented consumer experience that will extend the world of Marvel from print pages into the hands of fans around the world. We are excited to be part of this launch," says Ira Rubenstein, executive vice president, global digital media group, Marvel Entertainment.
