Not one but *two* binge-reading bonanzas have recently made their debut. First, [*The New Yorker*](http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/07/28/note-readers) announced that it is opening the entirety of its archives to all, free of charge, for the entire summer, to celebrate the makeover of its website. (Normally, much of the archive is accessible only for paid subscribers.) Then, in a deal coinciding with this week's [Comic-Con International](http://www.comic-con.org/) in San Diego, [Marvel Comics](http://marvel.com/mu) is offering a special "Marvel Unlimited" package, with one month's access to more than 15,000 digital comics for just 99¢. (New subscribers must use the promo code SDCC14 when signing up for the service, which usually runs $9.99 per month or $69 per year.) What might you read? [*Wired*](http://www.wired.com/2014/07/marvel-comics-unlimited/) suggests that Marvel subscribers should check out some of the Infinite Comics that have been specially designed for the digital experience, such as the six-issue *Captain America: The Winter Soldier* (inspiration for the recent film). Meanwhile, [BuzzFeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/isaacfitzgerald/eustace-tilleys-goodreads-account), [Vox](http://www.vox.com/2014/7/21/5922727/12-new-yorker-education-articles-to-read-while-the-archives-are-free), [Digg](http://digg.com/2014/digg-picks-new-yorker), and [Slate](http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2014/07/22/new_yorker_online_free_for_three_months_what_should_you_read.html) are among the many publications that have weighed in with recommendations for *New Yorker* reading while the archive door is wide open. The suggested free *New Yorker* readings from [Business Insider](http://www.businessinsider.com/8-new-yorker-stories-you-should-read-2014-7) are heavy on gripping but grisly tales of war, genocide, and evil, such as [Seymour Hersh's "Torture at Abu Ghraib"](http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2004/05/10/torture-at-abu-ghraib) and Hannah Arendt's ["Eichmann in Jerusalem,"](http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1963/02/16/eichmann-in-jerusalem-I) the latter about the trial of the infamous Nazi officer Adolph Eichmann. After reading some of these stories, it might be time to turn one's attention back over to Captain America. ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/marvel-comics-new-yorker-free-unlimited-deal/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Shopping", "item": "https://money.com/shopping/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Deals", "item": "https://money.com/deals/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "Marvel Comics or The New Yorker: Choose Your Binge-Reading Bargain" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/marvel-comics-new-yorker-free-unlimited-deal/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/marvel-comics-new-yorker-free-unlimited-deal/", "name": "Marvel Comics or The New Yorker: Choose Your Binge-Reading Bargain", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2014-07-24T22:14:58.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/marvel-comics-new-yorker-free-unlimited-deal/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/marvel-comics-new-yorker-free-unlimited-deal/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2014-07-24T22:14:58.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "Marvel Comics or The New Yorker: Choose Your Binge-Reading Bargain", "articleSection": "Shopping", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://money.com/img/logo-social.png", "width": 300, "height": 300 } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Brad Tuttle", "url": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/#author", "description": "Brad Tuttle is a former senior editor at Money with over 10 years’ experience covering a vast number of personal finance topics, including careers, cars, travel, budgeting, investing, insurance, credit cards, consumer psychology, real estate, banking, and shopping and deals.\r\n\r\n", "image": "https://img.money.com/2014/01/Brad-Tuttle.png?w=226&h=247&crop=1", "alumniOf": "Columbia University School of Journalism, MS", "sameAs": [ "https://twitter.com/bradrtuttle", "https://linkedin.com/in/brad-tuttle-834b225" ] } ], "publisher": "https://money.com/#organization", "datePublished": "2014-07-24T22:14:58.000Z", "description": "To celebrate Comic-Con and the makeover of a literary journal's website, fans can binge on cheap (or free!) all-you-can-read deals.
