Been saying this on and off for over a year but Kindle has reached new levels of disconcerting and frustrating - most recent issue being that it overheats my tablets/phone to the point it becomes too hot to touch and drains the battery. “Loving” the Comixology integration

If you're delivering art to typical USA mainstream publishers (Marvel, DC, DH, Image, etc.), the generally accepted dimensions for print are below. At the very least, make sure your proportions can be scaled to these measurements without chopping out chunks of art. Memorize, pls

Looks like Kindle is buggered again when reading comics on iOS. Hefty page/app freezes and crashes. Even on a fairly recent device. Several years in and still a mess. If only I could download my purchased comics and read them on a third party reader. I miss Comixology

There have been a fair few patches rolled out since then. But Kindle remains broken/unusable on iPad Mini (2024). Weeks ago customer support told me they are working on a fix and they would update me. No update. I wonder how many former Comixology customers affected.

There are hundreds of TV apocalypses to choose from, but The Eternaut, a fresh and compelling adaptation of a classic Argentinian comic book series, is the one to pick, says Bethan Ackerley newscientist.com/article/mg2663…
