ComiXology has expanded its presence in French language comics with the launch Wednesday of over 400 titles and a new version of its iOS apps that offers navigation in French. The new titles are from 14 publishers, including Delcourt, Glenat, Soleil, and Panini, which together represent over 40% of the French language market for bandes dessinees, comics, and manga. A subset of the titles will also be available worldwide, including the U.S.
ComiXology launched in France with
