EDIT: The reddit thread people are similarly confused on whether it's DRM-free files or not.

Thanks for the suggestion! If it requires that app...

Neon Ichiban is a digital comics and manga platform where readers buy, collect, read, and resell issues from every major publisher in one place. Every purchase is a real collectible — not a license you can lose — and you can trade it on a built-in marketplace.
Browse the marketplace

Founded by David Steinberger (co-founder and former CEO of Comixology) and Chip Mosher, veterans of the digital comics industry, with the team behind the DSTLRY publishing imprint.

Buy digital issues from every major publisher, read them on the web or the mobile app, collect variants and signed copies, resell editions you own on the built-in marketplace, and earn rewards for reviewing books you have read.

Btw, it looks like there is a lot of amazing staff on "dstlry", I literally love sites within that fonts' clean style.

I have yet to come across a Humble Bundle that I couldn't buy in Denmark. And I've bought little more than a 100 bundles from them.

Several Fanatical book bundles which may be of interest:

https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/...as-book-bundle 53 Baen and public domain collections. There's only 4 novels I'm interested in; most of the other novels I got off one or other Baen CD-ROM. Sadly, not a build your own bundle. Having said that, I wonder if any are updated editions.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-an...-novels-bundle A build-your-own bundle. Unfortunately, only 2 books seem interesting, and the art isn't great IMO.

https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/...or-book-bundle A better collection, but we have most of the public domain books. The Hardinge and the di Filippo look interesting, as do two of the Kuttner collections and the Leiber collection. Most of the other authors featured I've never heard of, but I wouldn't necessarily as I don't really read horror.

Also there's https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/...lhu-rpg-bundle plus some Traveller bundles.

The Baen bundle is full of books from series with the series being complete.

It doesn't seems the retrieving key from the DSTRLY Humble Bundle requires Neon Ichiban app; I've tried from the browser and it allows a DRM-free download of the comic as a PDF (I haven't tried all the bundle's comics yet).
Thought it will be singular downloads, and probably some comics are not the complete serie, but also those are 3 or 4 issues ones, and if the bundle misses one chapter, imho it's fine anyway and it looks supportive for the authors.
By a first look those works seem very original, glad to have found it.

Why is there a Pac-Man cookbook lol

Pac-man is all about food and eating! There's cherries, strawberries, melons, later ones add cakes and coffees!

I was surprised to see there is a second volume of the FFXIV cookbook. I have the first, it's not horrible IMO, everything I made from it was pretty good.

I've soured on franchise cookbook tie-ins. I had one or two in the past that felt fresh and creative, but they've proliferated so much now that they all feel very low-effort.

(@Dr.Drib, recalling having mentioned the series), there is a bundle for "Creepy & Eerie Archives - The Complete Comic Colection": https://www.fanatical.com/en/bundle/...mic-collection
Some covers are by Franzetta, the previews look well drawn.

It looks like they are 'proper' ebook versions; the ISBNs on mine tend to be the hardback ISBNs - i.e. Baen digitised the print versions for the CD-ROMs.

So probably worth getting; looking at some of mine the layout is better suited to print.
