It ’s a huge blessing to DCU ’s comics corner — the service launched last twelvemonth witha limited selectionof titles that were curated and swapped out regularly , before expanding to encompass a larger library of comics in January of this twelvemonth . This current expansion brings the service ’s funnies library in - line of descent with others like Marvel Unlimited ; it ’s by no agency a complete collection , but still incredibly extensive . Enough that you ’ve got book to learn for a damn long time .
But study it ’s all that , and accession to shows like Doom Patrol , Titans , andYoung Justice , as well as back archives for things likeBatman : The Animated Series ’ HD remaster ? It makes the service even more tempting than it is … and also a deal more frustrating that it ’s U.S. only . Hopefully , as it ’s cipher out ways to wreak the Universe - sole show beyond U.S. shores over the past few months ( still wait on that Doom Patrol Netflix announcement , DC , any day now please ! ) , it ’ll find a way to propose the comics library that ’s now part of Universe as a standalone thing internationally .
No specific date have been given for just when DC Universe will add these raw comics to its depository library beyond April , so for now … just sit tight and hold back for your digital recitation pile to suddenly get a lot larger .
