Marvel Wants to Give You $5 in Comics (KINDA)!!!

Marvel.com wants to give you free money! No, seriously they do. Starting at 12:01 AM Eastern on (tomorrow) March 25 and ending at 11:59 pm (Sunday) March 31, when you purchase select Avengers or X-Men comics using the Marvel Comics app you will be e-mailed a coupon on April 1 valued at five dollars good towards any Marvel comic at your local comic shop.

The promotion comes just a weak prior to the launch of Avengers Vs. X-Men and you can bet Marvel is hoping this will help what is an already eagerly anticipated book. Marvel, first tried this promotion back in January and after getting feedback from local comic shops and geeks-alike, they found that the promotion helps bring in new geeks AKA customers. In this ever-growing digital age, it’s nice to see that Marvel, while pushing the digital form, is still dedicated to not only maintaining the customer base for shops but help get them new customers. Smart tactic, Marvel…now let’s see DC try it!
