http://magazines.com offers $10 off the price of any subscription with the gift card code of BAC243EE8E37E14B . Most of the DC titles are 24.99 regular price. Ten off gets you down to 14.99 or $1.25 per issue.

I just added Aquaman to my sub list.

Please Note: I just got my confirmation e-mail which states they will automatically renew the subscription unless I call and tell them otherwise. Guess I'm on the phone first thing monday morning.
I tired the code and got the following message: "Gift card has no balance."

http://www.tanga.com/ has Batman & Robin subscription for $11.99 today.

That price may be for returning customers. I'm not sure what the code is to get the reduced price if you are a new customer, sorry.

Interesting. I cannot get that price to appear and have been unsuccessful in finding a coupon code. Already getting the book via a previous tanga subscription but was still hoping to post w/code.

Anyone else seeing that price ? ?

The following 10 for $1 or less

Superman
Batman
Batman & Robin
Batman Dark Knight
Green Lantern
Justice League
SWAMP THing
Cat Woman
Batgirl
Hawkman

Plus the following 4 for about $1.25 (or less).

Detective
Action Comics
Aquaman
DC universe Presents

I'll pretty much buy any book at the dollar entry point. And most of these I'll probably be buying in Trade or Hard cover when they come out. The comics are pretty much acting as advertisements for the trades. :-)

Okay, this is a roundabout way to get a DC subscription for $1 per issue.

NOTE: The Offer ends at 6PM EST or while supplies last.
NOTE: I did an online chat with the magazines.com site to verify offer was actually legit from them.

The link below SHOULD take you to site to buy a $25 dollar gift card for the http://www.magazines.com site. You're buying the $25 gift card for $11.99. MOST of the DC comic subscriptions on the site are $24.99. So using your gift card you'll get the subscription for $1 per issue.

They also have marvel comics as well but as with all things Marvel, they cost a bit more. Still a good deal.

I just added Birds of Prey to my subscription list.

NOTE (yeah, another one): Magazines.com has an automatic renewal service which they use unless otherwise indicated. It was not applied to this purchase with the gift card but has been set on other comic purchases I have made through them. So PLEASE, read the confirmation notice if/when you receive it.

First, I have bought Magazines from this site before without problem.

Second, I did just place an order with them for Action and Detective Comics. Receipt says I should expect them around the beginning of the New year.

Third, the images they use are out of date and some of the comics they advertise have already been cancelled.

If you're willing to overlook all of that, here's the deal. Discountmags offers a number of comic subscriptions. The best deals are For ACTION COMICS, DETECTIVE COMICS, and JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA. They are offered at 17.99 for a 12 month subscription. Use the COUPON CODE WOOT when checking out and you'll save an additional 20% off your order. This brings a 12 month subscription to $14.40 or $1.20 an issue. Not as inexpensive as the occasional Tanga offering but better than half off.

Once I actually start receiving the books I'll make a post to confirm receipt. However, this might be a nice christmas gift for the niece or nephew you want to get into comics.

This link takes you directly to the comic selection.

Just wanted to update this. I've started receiving both of these books as of this month. The WOOT discount code is still working as well.
