Tears of the Dragon http://www.totdcomic.com A Fantasy Epic by Tyler James, Koko Amboro and Paul Little Wed, 28 Jul 2010 19:38:42 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 Tears of the Dragon on Your iPhone! http://www.totdcomic.com/2010/07/28/tears-of-the-dragon-on-your-iphone/ http://www.totdcomic.com/2010/07/28/tears-of-the-dragon-on-your-iphone/#comments Wed, 28 Jul 2010 19:38:42 +0000 Tyler James http://www.totdcomic.com/?p=214 I’m pleased to announce that my comics are now available for the iPhone and iPad!

Tyler James Comics has partnered with brand spanking new mobile comics publisher Oxicomics to distribute a selection of books in a format tailor made for the iPhone, and sold through the App Store.

Tears of the Dragon #1 is now available for purchase, one of the inaugural handful of comics released during Oxicomics soft-launch kick-off.  (In fact, Oxicomics has been using Tears images in the promotional images of their new app…which is fine by me!)

TOTD #1 is on sale for just $0.99 at the app store, and can be found easily by searching either “Tears of the Dragon” or “Oxicomics” or simply by following THIS LINK.

Also available FOR FREE is Tyler James Comics Presents…Vol. 1.  Yup, that’s right.  FREE!  So, please, download and let me know what you think!

Oxicomics_launch_002

In the coming weeks and months, I’ll be adding new titles to the Oxicomics Catalogue, including Tears of the Dragon #2 and the complete OVER series, with all new, mobile-only covers.

One of my biggest goals of this year was to get my comics on the iPhone and iPad.  Partnering with Oxicomics, a new kid on the block whose comics reader rivals the best apps out there, made a lot of sense, and it will hopefully be a win-win for both of us.  Though I’ve been drooling over the iPhone for a long time, I refused to allow myself to purchase one until I was selling comics through it.

Well, looks like I’ll be hitting the Apple store, soon!

AVAILABLE NOW AT OXICOMICS
