dang beat me to it! there are some nice titles in here. a great price to check in on titles you may not have tried otherwise. if you pay over average ($15 at the moment) you also get manhattan projects, fuse, sex criminals, wicked and divine and velvet. I'm thinking I need to nab it...

I've got a few questions about this. I'm not really familiar with Humble Bundle, so i checked it out, and it says on the site that for 18 dollars or more you also get Saga Book 1, Walking Dead Compendium 1(48 issues!)and East of West the World.And from what i understand you can download all of that to your computer or tablet after you paid, right?And i assume it also works outside of the US? Sounds too good to be true, so is there a catch?Or is it as good as it sounds? Sorry if these are stupid questions, but i live under a rock sometimes  , and i'm pretty interested in this. |

From my knowledge of other Humble Bundles it is as good as it sounds. I don't know where you are, but they have worked for me in the UK.
If you're going to be reading on a tablet it's probably worth bearing in mind that this will be quite a lot of data, so you'll most likely want some cloud storage or similar to store the ones you aren't reading at the moment.

yeah they send you a link with download buttons for all the books. I already downloaded all mine this morning. I spent 15.25 US and got all of it except the 18+ stuff (I already have some of it, and didn'twant the walking dead stuff)
its all drm free, and you can get epub, pdf, some other format (crz?) or high definition pdf.

Thank you very much for the information, now i feel confident enough to spend some of my money on this.
I already read some stuff that's included, like Saga and Deadly Class, but there is so much in that bundle that i haven't read yet, so i'm definitely gonna do this.

yeah I was in the same boat. I had read some, didn't care about others, but there were like a half dozen titles I'd been meaning to at least check out that it made it well worth the money |

I just purchased the $18 bundle and it is sooooo worth it. I've never read Saga, Alex + Ada, Deadly Class or Velvet. Definitely excited to finally dive into them. Woohoo.

I just finished Alex and ada vol 1 and I am such a happy camper right now. It is so refreshing to get a story told in this straight forward fashion, that doesn't start out with the end and fill in blanks as we go. That last page has me so missed that it's 11 at night and I can't go buy the physical copies. I'll finish it digitally but I need to own this. It's my favorite new book.

So far i have read Shutter Vol 1, God Hates Astronauts Vol 1, Nailbiter Vol 1, and Alex and Ada Vol 1, and those are series that i definitely want to keep reading.Good stuff!
I have also read almost all of the Walking Dead compendium, but i don't know if i'll continue with that series.
