TwoMorrows’ older Digital Editions increase by $1 on June 1 – stock up now!
Stock up on TwoMorrows’ older digital editions before June 1, and beat the price increase!
Older PDF Digital Editions (more than a year old) ordered from www.twomorrows.com increase by $1 on JUNE 1. So older $3.95 digital back issues will now be $4.95, just like new issues.
We wanted to give you fair warning, rather than sneak in a price increase unexpectedly. A lot of internal business concerns went into this decision, and it’s one we didn’t make lightly. After years at our current prices, this will keep them more in line with our print versions and in-app pricing (but downloading digital books and mags directly from us still costs less than app purchases, since Apple and Google don’t get a cut of our webstore sales). So if you missed any digital back issues, get ’em now and save $1 each!

A “banner” day: RetroFan #1 goes to press (did you pre-order yours?)
It’s a “banner” day for Back Issue editor Michael Eury, as he unpacks some of our marketing materials he’ll be using to promote TwoMorrows new pop culture magazine RetroFan, which he’s also editing!
RetroFan #1 is literally going to press today, and strong orders mean a sell-out is likely once it ships in late June. To insure you get a copy, preview and pre-order it from us at http://bit.ly/RetroFan1, ask your local comic book shop to get it using Diamond Order Code MAR181967, or try your luck getting it on Barnes & Noble‘s magazine racks in July!
And Michael Eury?’s first stop is at the Charlotte Comicon (at the Concord NC Convention Center) this Sunday, April 15! Go see ‘em!
