Money, Money, Money! DC and Marvel Lower their Prices!

Usually when announcements start to come out of one of the major Comic-Cons, it's about an exciting new title, an amazing new creative team on a popular book, or an official announcement of oft-gossiped about upcoming movies.  But the big news to come out of the New York Comic-Con today is that both DC and Marvel are going to reduce their $3.99 ongoing titles back down to a $2.99 price point beginning in January 2011.  The deciding factor is that the two powerhouses of the comic industry plan to recoup the money from digital downloads.  This is fantastic, fantastic news! At this time, when we are all trying to put as much away as possible, it's nice to see a bold move like this.

Now I can buy more comics!
