In our country, comic stores are very few and far from our house that's why I intend to buy comic books digitally. However, I do not have a credit or debit card. Are there other ways to buy digital comics?
Digital Comics
Buy gift cards like comixology
eGift Cards - Comics by comiXology
Otherwise, see they accept pre-paid visa.
I used to live one block away from a comic book store, and drove past another every time I went to work. I still chose to purchase all of my comics digitally, partially for convenience, but far more so for quality. I've been reading comic books for over a quarter of a century, since I was a toddler, but the first time I read one on a tablet with an ultra-high resolution screen (I personally use an iPad with retina display), that immediately became the definitive version of comic reading for me. I haven't bought a physical comic book in years, and proudly so.
@rideaspacecowboy: what app do you use?
You know you could just torrent
Do not do that. The gross immorality of theft aside, the comics industry is an endangered medium and any comic worth reading deserves the full patronage of its readership. Not to mention the hypocrisy of reading, presumably, a superhero comic depicting a paragon a virtue in such an un-virtuous manner, i.e. if you're stealing a Superman comic, you're missing the point of Superman.
@rideaspacecowboy: But what if you are downloading a comic on a villain . Is it okay then?
@rideaspacecowboy: will trade waiting instead of buying monthlies endanger ongoing series?

nope
It doesn't matter if you read in print, digital, or trade. If you're paying for the book, then you're supporting it.

Then people wonder why their favourite series get cancelled.

If you're goal in life is to be a villain, then congratulations, stealing a comic book, whether a physical copy from a comic book store or a digital copy that you torrent, is a villainous act.
@rideaspacecowboy: bro it was a joke
