in both ie10 and chrome I get "spread sheet is too large download or edit in google sheets".

It does neither.

Than after page 9, judge dread child 5, it just lists stripxxx, the xxx being a number.

Don't click the Download link in that actual message, use the Download option in the Google Doc "File" menu that's at the top-right and that works fine.

That's because the Judge Child Quest set I've got there is only five issues long. The stripxxx stuff you see is the next set which is a dump of an old webcomic called Life of Riley.

Hmmm. Might pick that up.

I have The Walking Dead massive thing made of paper, so wouldn't be getting it for that (plus, quite disappointed with it). Also, Invincible is a bit 'meh' and was the weakest of the previous bundle I've read.

There's actually another two tiers on top of that:

Pay $40 or more to unlock:
The Walking Dead T-Shirt
The Walking Dead, Vol. 20

Pay $65 or more to unlock:
Limited edition Negan action figure

That penultimate one there is odd; why go from volume 5 right up to 20?

There's also an offer below that on the page to just get the first three issues of The Walking Dead for free (in exchange for your email address) so anyone wanting a taster of The Walking Dead and electronic comics in general could do worse than that.

I haven't read Ghosted but did enjoy Witch Doctor and it's certainly worth $1.

Why read a comic on a tablet when you can read the real thing...here's one that up for sale. Price is a bit steep though.

I finished going through the Image Comics bundle. Almost all of them were really good. The more recent bundle (Oni, was it?) I've read a couple and they were okay.
