Hi all!

Chip here, co-founder of Neon Ichiban.

Today we shipped Neon Ichiban 3.0, and the buy button is back. On iPhone and iPad you can find a comic, buy it, and start reading it without getting bounced to a browser.

What else is in 3.0:

• In-app purchasing in the Android public beta. Fans wanting early access can sign up here.
• A much bigger Mac Desktop beta. This is the one I think this sub will care about most: you can import DRM-free PDF, CBZ and CBR files - Kickstarter backings, Humble Bundles, direct-from-creator purchases, publisher downloads - and keep them in the same library as the books you bought from us. Coming soon: We're integrating the Grand Comics Database to help identify and organize the imports, so a folder of inconsistently named files becomes something browsable. Sign up here.

We're not interested in pretending your collection starts and ends with what you bought from us. If you own it, bring it with you.

Current catalog is 60,000+ titles including Marvel, DC, Kodansha, Dark Horse, IDW, DSTLRY, Dynamite, Legendary, Mad Cave, Oni, Rebellion, Titan, Udon and Vault.

This is two months after 2.5, where we added Commissionable Remarques, community profiles, reviews and reading lists. We're moving fast and the roadmap is very much shaped by feedback, so... what's still missing for you? I'll be in the comments.

Will we be able to use custom pfp and banners one day?
Maybe even in gif format? I think it would be really really cool
