Meant to post this a while back, but I guess I got busy!
2000AD’s online archive is up and doing quite well, it seems.

This part really caught my eye:
Although the digital initiative was initially aimed at the international fans instead of those who reside in the UK, Demeter said that the online initiative to release each new weekly edition a week after the print edition was sold in shops in the UK has not affected sales of 2000AD progs at all. In fact, the publisher has seen an increase in the sales of the print edition.
Ha! As the first poster says, “RUN PROG DC_MARVEL_GETACLUE.” Obviously there’s no guarantee 2000AD’s model would work for Marvel’s Digital Comics Unlimited or whatever DC comes up with some day, but’s it’s still something to take note of.
