    Hi guys, I’m trying to get back into reading regular comics and have been looking on the marvel site for release dates and I was just wondering if they are the same dates in Ireland or are the ones on their page just for the states? Also are the prices the same?
    Thanks

    Technically they are, though you'll need to find a retailer who has an account with Diamond (the distributor for most US comics).

    If you want to get an idea of what's coming out in a given week, you can check out Previews - look for "New Releases" and you'll see a page with everything listed for a given week.

    As for pricing - you'll likely be paying more than just the Euro-exchange of the cover price to account for things like shipping. It varies from shop to shop, and can also depend on whether you've got a standing order (eg some shops will give you a discount if you're ordering at least X monthly comics).

    Thanks Fysh that link is handy.
    I’m guessing it would work out at about 5 euro per book would I be right?
    Would it be cheaper to buy online and is so how fast would you get comics?
