and almost half the books are bi-monthly. Even the books that are monthy now are changed to bi-monthly.

I really appreciate DC right now. Their release schedule is consistent and in order. Marvel is a total clutter.

If people jump ship now I wouldn't judge them. Alonso is doing a crappy job directing these things.
How is this a good business decision? People don't have the money in this kind of economy to spend so wildly on comics. Maybe their capitalist greed has caused them to think they can make a short term profit forcing people who want the complete story to shell out cash.
Yeah i can see it adding to more pirating. Not good for the industry.

you do realize, people actually buy them before uploading, they don't just come from nowhere.

and that means to me? Somebody somewhere will buy them and torrent them. On release as they get money from it.. they dont just upload it for nothing. I was reading a thor torrented comic, and bloody Coca cola and Toyota had ads placed, talk about sponsoring piracy. They act like the dont like pircay, but big company's fund it.

You do realize that you fancy books about heroes fighting crime and then steal from the companies releasing those, right? If really you HAVE to download, which I can understand, then keep it at least acceptable: do it as if you were borrowing a book from a friend and keep on buying some series once in a while. Marvel is not poor, of course, but stealing is never good for your self esteem. Not all the comics are good, just try to keep on buying the good ones, it helps the people writing those to keep on writing those.

I do buy the comics I really want, but things like this piss me off and I dont waste my money when they dont accommodate the readers in a time like this. I recently purchased thor/ironman god complex.
@Pyrogram: NO, they do it for free out of good well. Users upload those things, the adds give money to the people who run the site, they don't care or check what people upload. Companies don't really know care or check where there adds go either, any body can put adds by copying a link, with out asking anyone. Also, I guess the people seeding the torrent also get paid.. wait I never received the check hmm. with-out any seeders it will NOT download as well. That's why it's called piracy.

Why on everyother page was their ad placement in the actual comic then?

Toyota and Coca Cola sponsor Marvel sometimes. the ads were there in the first place. Marvel and Toyota are practically team-mates in advertisements
toyota ads are all over the Marvel iphone app

of course someone has to buy it but not the seeders(only the uploader)! like you said, someone somewhere will be kind enough to put it online[even tough illegally] for you. I fail to see any point in this discussion.
