GARFIELD COMICS by KaBOOM! is free to download through
Apple’s iTunes app marketplace. Digital comics and graphic novels can be
purchased directly through the app using the user’s iTunes account. BOOM!
Studios has a long history of groundbreaking initiatives in the digital comic
space including being the first independent comic publisher to launch its own
branded digital comic app with the PEANUTS COMICS APP which launched early
November 2012. The GARFIELD Comics by KaBOOM! App was developed by Snapplify
(https://www.snapplify.com/), a mobile solutions provider that enables
publishers, authors and content providers to package their books, magazines and
brochures into digital publications for company branded Mobile Apps.
Issue #1 of GARFIELD is free to download in its entirety
through the GARFIELD COMICS by KaBOOM! app and all other singles are at their
usual pricing of $3.99. Four weeks after a new GARFIELD comic is released, the
price of the issue purchased through the app will drop $1.99.
Along with purchasing comics through the app, the app
includes a live feed from the official Garfield Facebook page as well as a link
to the KaBOOM! website. Both features will be accessible directly in the app.
Additional features will be added to the app in the future.
