### 4/5 — Panel zoom stopped working on this update

*2026-10-27*

I have to manually zoom in and out of each panel on this update, the last update panel zoom worked perfectly.

### 2/5 — Terrible app

*2026-10-15*

While the reading experience of comics you own is fine, if all you’re trying to do is read comics you already own the app makes it as hard as possible, there’s no way to filter to just comics you own, I own 9 volumes of a comic, so I open the series and click start reading, and it dumps me into a comic I could buy, not one I own. I have to scroll through a list of comics in the series I don’t own, find the one I want, and then read it from there, and do this every time. There is no way to filter to things you own, even if you download everything you own locally on your device you still have to wade through what equates to hundreds of ads to open, what I cannot stress enough, I already own and have downloaded.

### 3/5 — meh

*2026-10-11, version 2.2.53*

only got this app to read Something is Killing The Children which isn't even on here anymore, the search bar uses AI, the interface is really annoying and looks bad in terms of UI/UX. Comixology is a dollar cheaper and has a 30 day free trial, this has no free trial unless you do a yearly subscription and its only 7 days free.

Naaah

### 3/5 — Discovery is confusing

*2026-10-09*

Vertical Strips should be a seperate category or tab at the bottom.  No way to filter out just the vertical comics.

Sub got more expensive and they lost boom and image comics.  Doesn't have the value the two main comics publisher's apps have.  I wouldn't sub for marvel and dc, their actual apps have way more content.  They do have some decent indie publishers like DarkHorse and TopCow but the catalog varies.

Wish all purchases allowed for drm-fee export but only certain ones do abd you have to know to do that on the site.

### 4/5 — Good App

*2026-09-23*

I like the app it provides a good reading interface.  

My only complaint is that it does not reopen to the last  comic read or any sort of history to make it easier to return.  Instead I have to search through the comics in my library.  

Further it’s also difficult to read the titles so if looking at the same title it’s sometimes hard to tell which issue number is present.  Maybe a list view or a way to sort might be nice also.

### 4/5 — Removal

*2026-09-03, version 2.2.48*

I got this so that j could read a series I was really looking forward to, and heard about and then about a week later, it got removed as I was In the third book. If you’re wondering, I was reading the series Invincible. And it sadly got removed. I’m not too mad because in return I started reading other lines of comics and found “one world under doom” which I love.

### 2/5 — Poor UX

*2026-09-03*

Team I sincerely appreciate your work but I can’t fathom all the five star ratings.  Your selection of comics is great, but comic management is almost non-existent.

Firstly - my continue reading list is a small bunch of comics I looked at but never started reading.  The actual comics I start reading never show up in this list and I have to add them to a list called ‘reading’, but there’s apparently no way to add that list to my homepage so I have to go find it?  

Secondly, if I leave the app for 5 minutes and return the app reloads itself from scratch so I have to restart this process which wouldn’t matter if the homepage had what I needed but it doesn’t.

Lastly - comics regularly don’t save where I stopped reading, but instead are 100+ pages ahead of where I stopped so I have to go back every time I stop reading for a short moment.

There are other items around being able to filter on complete series available on gold rather than trying to see which are only half free and the rest need to purchase, or searching by genre across all channels - it’s impossible to find comics of interest - but at the very least fix the bugs when I read them.

You have a great collection - I have auto updates on so I’m definitely on your latest version but this app UX sucks - I work in web and mobile app development too so I know these aren’t impossible items to solve.  Please fix them as I want to use you and I’ve paid for a year but I won’t renew

### 4/5 — Needs friend feature!!

*2026-08-31*

I have purchased a year’s worth of gold on this app and feel confident in saying this is a fantastic app either way, lots to choose from! It’s a little sad that as of now Image comics are no longer offered on here, but other than that this is a very good app. HOWEVER, this app would be a no-brainer 5/5star app for me IF it had a friend feature! It would be so much fun to compare stats and lists with your friends, and it seems a bummer to me that you can join chat rooms but can’t have friends on here! If you’re part of the dev team and are reading this, PLEASE consider this!

### 3/5 — Confused

*2026-08-28*

i'm having a hard time understanding that if I'm paying for a gold membership, I should be able to binge the entire collection, but you give me access to one volume and then I have to pay for the remainder of the volumes, especially with Absolute Batman. If I have a gold membership, I should be able to read all of it. You only let me read all of volume 1, then try to make me pay for volume 2? It doesn't really make sense. Any comic book that isn't a big titled comic, I get free access to; I can read all of it. But stuff like Absolute Batman, Ultimate Spider-Man, stuff like that, you put up paywalls. So what's the purpose of having a subscription if then you're telling me I have to pay out of pocket to continue reading the rest of the series?

### 2/5 — Image

*2026-08-25*

Don’t get wrong this app is awesome but since the departure of Image Comics books I can’t really recommend the gold subscription. Dark Horse and IDW stuff is cool to have but I use both the Marvel and DC apps so those being on here don’t entice me.

### 1/5 — You have to pay to read

*2026-08-23, version 2.2.47*

You can only read one page then you have to play to see the rest

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Same price, less content.

*2026-10-17, version 2.2.54*

GlobalComix lost the ENTIRETY of Image Comics content, and every DCU comic is now behind a paywall, yet GlobalComix feels they are worth the same as they were before they lost this MASSIVE amount of content. Go check out SweetShop and get rid of this garbage app from these garbage creators.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-10-12*

Horrible needs money to keep reading like what? Member ship pop ups every second takes forever to load make it cost money Dissapointed. 1 Star

### 1/5 — Unbelievably bad app, 5 star reviews are bots

*2026-10-08, version 2.2.53*

I don’t understand how it has such high reviews. My continue reading constantly takes me to comics I don’t own for a preview, and completely forgets where I left off. Also the UI for your owned comics can’t be sorted or grouped into folders, so it’s just a dump of them.

### 1/5 — Why

*2026-10-04, version 2.2.52*

I like the app but the problem is that they dont have all of the comics and i really want them to add more interesting comics 😮‍💨😣

### 1/5 — Gold membership is useless

*2026-09-30, version 2.2.52*

I love the app, but there’s no point to having gold membership anymore. I was reading watchmen but now i can’t because it’s behind a paywall now. I’m essentially paying extra for what I would have without gold membership. Cancelling that subscription because what’s the point.

### 1/5 — oh COME ON!!!!

*2026-09-19, version 2.2.50*

So let me get this straight. I just wanna read some spiderman but it’s saying that I need to buy a subscription. I DONT NEED A DAMN SUBSCRIPTION TO READ THE FRICKING AVENGERS!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t actually own or download your comic files

*2026-09-19, version 2.2.50*

title says it all. No ownership just a license

### 1/5 — Vaudrait mieux speak english

*2026-09-10*

..

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-09-10, version 2.2.49*

You have to purchase every comic and book full price inside the app and pay for a subscription.

### 1/5 — Heck Naa

*2026-09-08, version 2.2.48*

It was flash bang give a warning

*2026-10-03, version 2.2.52*

### 5/5 — the best comic app

*2026-09-08, version 2.2.48*

half the price of stuff like dc and marvel who only have their brand. global has alot and its getting more all the time. 6 free comics a month. ultra has tons of comics and i cant say enough half the price of other apps. unless you count shonen and viz but they are anime only. this if deff the app you want for comics. as long as price stays the same i am in it for the long haul.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-09-06, version 2.2.48*

Good app

### 5/5 — I love it.

*2026-09-04*

I've subscribed since april and this app just has so many comics I wasn't able to find in the past. I've never spent 10$ a month that was this worth it.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear you’ve been enjoying GlobalComix. We really appreciate your support!

### 5/5 — This app has so many unique titles and art variety

*2026-09-03, version 2.2.48*

The optimization and differentiation of manga and manwha and comics
Well, as professional and truly indie titles such as personal favorites BLACKBLAZE and GRAVITY 6IX

### 5/5 — I don’t need to collect comics anymore

*2026-08-31, version 2.2.47*

This has so many titles that you can read with a subscription

### 5/5 — Ill give a 5 star but..

*2026-08-27*

I just downloaded the app. But before i get to sign up/login it keeps taking me to this page, where it says “make you experience even better” and a button that says “continue”. I try to press the continue button, but it doesn’t do anything. And there isn’t any other button. I might be doing something wrong but please fix this!!!!

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-07-20, version 2.2.44*

This has so many titles that you can read with a subscription
