You may have heard us talk about Mark Waid's IRREDEEMABLE. If you haven't read it, you really should. Now if you have an iPhone, you have a chance to check out the first four issues. Boom! Studios and Comixology have announced that the multiple sell-out book will be available starting today. Using Comixology's Comics App , you can download the issues for $1.99 each.
IRREDEEMABLE #1 sold out on the day it was released. Issue #2 sold out through Diamond before it was even released. That was followed by a second printing which also sold out. In August, Boom! Studios released the IRREDEEMABLE Volume 1 TPB collecting the first four issues for $9.99 along with issue #5 at .99 cents. Check out what everyone's saying:"In superhero comics, pretty much everyone who's called upon to put on a cape is, at heart, emotionally equipped for the job. I reject that premise," said series writer and BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief Mark Waid. "IRREDEEMABLE is, in a way, my third and most complex chapter on the cost of superheroics - a pulp adventure tale of horror exploring how the lessons we learn about right and wrong as children can become warped and twisted when challenged by the realities of the adult world."
