Back in the day, before ebook readers were common, you could buy an CDrom of comic collections of Fantastic Four, Marvel Greats, Star Trek, Archie and his Friends, Dark Shadows and even magazines like M.A.D. and Rolling Stone. You can still get them. Some are just for viewing on the PC but many are just CBR/CBZ or PDF files of scanned comics done by the publisher, not 'stolen copies'. You can still find the in electronics stores that have CDrom displays, Amazon and ebay. Most are done by GIT Corp.

Also DCM is of old Public Domain comics.
