"Other competing digital comics distributors - including iVerse, Panelfly, and leader comiXology, which hosts more than 2000 comics from 40 publishers and has an exclusive deal with DC Comics - are available only for Apple devices and through web readers. In tailoring his platform to a wider range of devices, Graphic.ly CEO Micah Baldwin says he hopes to bring digital comics to a broader audience. He has said he hopes that DC Comics and other publishers will offer their titles through multiple digital distributors and advocates a standard format - such as the MP3 for music - that would work across all devices and applications, steering away from the Apple-focused app."

I just wanna go on the record as saying that the Graphic.ly guys were my homies before I learned that we shared key philosophies about the direction of digital comics’ future.
Except comiXology are putting more and more comics on the web too. Which is slightly different to “only for Apple devices”.
