What's New
Version 3.2.3 (Apr 18, 2013)
Let's talk turkey.
There was a super annoying bug that went out in the last release that may have caused the app to crash when you were downloading a handful of books. Not only that, but it may have forced you to re-install the app to fix those crashes.
We're *very* sorry. The last thing we want to do is inconvenience you while trying to read some comics. As soon as we spotted this bug we submitted this version so we're very glad it's now in your hands.
