InkyPen Comics Subscription App Heads to Nintendo Switch in November

InkyPen, a new comic book subscription service, will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop come November, making it the marketplace’s first international non-game item.

This all-you-can-read program will launch simultaneously in the United States, Canada, Europe, Mexico, Russia, Africa and Australia for the price of $7.99 / €7.99 (or local equivalent.) This fee will grant users access to the entire InkyPen catalog, which includes over 10,000 titles from such publishers as IDW, Dynamite, Valiant, Les Humanoïdes Associés and Andrews McMeel.

The official InkyPen fact sheet details some of the features readers can expect from the service:

All your comics, anywhere you go on Nintendo Switch. Read on Nintendo Switch in handheld mode or in TV mode. Comics, French BD, Manga: international products for international viewers. All you can read, subscription based, no need to buy individual issues. Over 10,000 comic books for every style and taste. An intuitive touch interface allows you to read and browse with ease.

InkyPen will also feature a mascot named Inky, who will act as the service’s newscaster, providing readers with information related to new releases, InkyPen-related announcements and special events. Inky has already made a few appearances on the official InkyPen Twitter page to help keep potential users informed as the service heads towards launch.

“We have no intention of selling content piecemeal, there are other places for that,” said InkyPen CEO Ronan Huggard. “We’re bringing an all-you-can-read model to the international community.”

Huggard went on to explain his own personal reasons for founding InkyPen.

“I could never afford to truly explore comics growing up, or even at university. Not because I didn’t have enough money, but because they were just too expensive for a student to justify buying,” said Huggard. “InkyPen solves this.”

InkyPen will launch on the Nintendo eShop sometime in November. An official release date has not yet been set.
