Wednesdays are special for comic book fans.  It’s the day when new comics hit the shelves of our favorite stores.  It’s only appropriate that SONY has decided to officially launch their Comic Book Store.

The comic store goes live at 5PM GMT in Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. North America will get noon West Coast time.  Here’s a list of some of the comics you can expect to find:

• 2000AD – Featuring Judge Dredd, Durham Red…
• Disney – Follow the adventures of Mickey Mouse, Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck….
• IDW – Astro Boy, Transformers, Star Trek, Wormwood…
• Insomnia – Burke & Hare, Cages, Cancer Town… Insomnia and Geek Syndicate are also running a competition
• iVerse – Who bring us content from Ape Entertainment, Archie Comics, Dabel Brothers, Image & Red 5.
• Marvel – Astonishing X-Men, Captain America, Fantastic Four, Iron Man, The Amazing Spider-Man
• Titan – Wallace & Gromit

I expected an announcement before launch that DC comics would be added to the line but that’s just not the case (DC get with the times!).
