Unlimited Extras: What’s Coming To Comixology Unlimited in Late June?

It was only last month that Comixology launched Comixology Unlimited, a new subscription-base service with a Netflix-style model that gives access to a library of titles to read for a flat monthly fee. Since then, there's been one major question among readers: What exactly are we going to get on there?

Now, a month after the launch with titles from Image, Dark Horse, Valiant and IDW, the digital comics platform has announced the first wave of additions, set to hit Unlimited on June 27 --- including the first three issues of Afterlife With Archie, the first five of Ryan Browne's God Hates Astronauts, and the first eight issues of Matt Wagner's Mage: The Hero Discovered.

Mage in particular is worth noting, if only because it's exactly the kind of amazing comic that's been out of the spotlight for a while that Unlimited could deliver to a whole new generation of fans. Created by Matt Wagner in 1984, it's one of the standout books of the '80s black-and-white independent boom, telling the story of Kevin Matchstick, a reluctant hero with anger management issues who finds himself battling against supernatural enemies and eventually discovers that he's the reincarnation of King Arthur, with a magical baseball bat in place of Excalbur.

As rough as it is around its edges --- and as much as Wagner refined his story when it returned ten years later for the second volume, Mage: The Hero Defined --- it stands out as one of the high points of the decade, and is absolutely worth reading.
