The irony is that Hetalia is a webcomic intended to be available for free.

The printed version contains a lot of stuff that isnt part of the webcomic; for example the entire first chapter is redrawn/redone, and some other strips too. Plus there's the colour pages and stuff.

All fine and good, but what about the rest of the manga out there?

Indeed, this is a great first step (ComiXology's Comics App is WONDERFUL) but now the floodgates must be opened. I dream of the day all of VIZ's back catalog and new releases are available to me on my mobile device.

The fact that the fate of E-Manga rests on a fanbase full of disrespectful psychotic hambeasts is a scary thought.

Spoken like a true godless communist who hates the free market. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow?! Twisted Evil
