Currently owned by the Walt Disney Company, Marvel is one of the "Big Two" comic publishers along with DC Comics.
honestly ive always used marvel.com to check whats coming out and when. since they updated the site, its become a pain in the ass just to check whats coming out this week, let alone use half of the other things the site offers
Hate it. New releases sections aren't as clean or easy to navigate. Also, when the switch happened, it deleted all of my must reads from the digital comics section.
I only used to go there for advance solicitations, but it doesn't seem to have February's when a bunch of other sites do. I don't like the new design. I like things simple.
The design is worse than the previous when it concerns usability. And Marvel's database is fraked up being anything I've ever seen. The release dates are wrong. Some series aren't even to be found anymore starting a certain number ( for example, you can't find anything after Deadpool Corps 6 - which I don't know if it's the case, but it's just an example ) and there are just simply too many bugs for an important website like Marvel's. The whole look of the thing lacks attraction as well, but I won't even start about that at all.
First things first: They must have a decent database and decent usability, so when I want to know when my comics on my pull list come out, that I can actually find them and the correct release dates. Now I simply rely on Diamond's list every week.
I whish I could check the old design... speaking about new..it is awesome, I think. This site always help me to find some helpful info about my favorite heroes)) once I was searching about Elektra and managed to find a game - http://webslotcasino.com/elektra - turned out that marvel gave rights to create such games=) it was interesting news for me.
