SOLDIERS on iTunes!

After 6 weeks of being in the approval queue, SOLDIERS Zero was finally approved for sale on iTunes!  The entire issue of SOLDIERS Zero is now available for download directly to your iphone or ipod touch.

We made SOLDIERS specifically for mobile devices — everything from the aspect ratio to the transitions to the word balloons.  Reading it all at once, on a digital device, is the way it was meant to be seen.  We are extremely proud of the way it turned out — download it now and see for yourself! The total story is over 190 screens and it’s all for the bargain price of 99 cents.

The app for SOLDIERS Zero was created by the extraordinary team at Infurious Republic.  They did a lot of customization to their app for SOLDIERS and I can honestly say it is head and shoulders beyond any other app out there.  The app is made in layers, with the art and letters separate.  Go ahead and hit the “Speech” button on the app menu bar and you can get rid of the word balloons and marvel at Martin and Chris’ incredible artwork.  Want to jump around?  Use the “scrubber” by sliding your finger along the bottom of the screen — with visual scrolling, you get to see each image as you scroll forward and back.  No more guessing — go directly to the scenes you want to see.  Future issues will have extra art layers, “director’s” commentary, and Easter Egg surprises.  No other app has anywhere near the capability of the Infurious Comic Reader.

As our first digital comic, this is a big milestone for Underwater Samurai Studios.  We hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed making it! Rob P.S.  Stay tuned, because we have several more titles in production — SOLDIERS is just the beginning!
