Keeps saying I am not connected to the Internet when trying to browse the store. Too many nerds downloading free stuff.

Edit: Can't even hit their website to register, they were not prepared for the work load this deal would create.

Update: To anyone who cares, I was able to finally register but the site is going really slow and comics are taking awhile to load into my cart, if at all. Still trying though!

Update 2: Have been able to get 9 comics so far, taking forever but getting there.

A Message From The CEO

Posted on March 11th, 2013 - 16:07 PM by David SteinbergerTo our customers:
It’s been a whirlwind weekend, and we’re fresh from SXSW where Marvel Comics launched their Marvel #1 promotion featuring over 700 free comics distributed via our platform.
We expected a high degree of excitement for the Marvel initiative – and had believed ourselves prepared – but unfortunately we became overwhelmed by the immense response. We’re still struggling to keep our systems up.
The result is that you aren’t getting your comics when and where you want.
We don’t like letting you down. Our teams are working around the clock to resolve these issues so that you can have the experience you’ve come to expect.
To that end, we’re pausing the Marvel Comics #1 promotion for the time being. For those of you that want to take advantage of the offer – you will get your comics! Until we are able to reinstate this program in our systems, please click here and fill out this simple form, so you can be informed as soon as there is an update.
We’ll be communicating with you as often as we can and deeply appreciate the outpouring of support we’ve seen from our customers while we right the ship.
David Steinberger
CEO and co-founder

I was finally able to navigate the up and down time of the servers and get about 30 comics. Will check back later tomorrow when it calms down and make sure I didn't miss any ones I wanted.

I can't log into the app to see my comics, keeps saying my user name and password are invalid. Logging into the site works fine. Anyone else see this problem?

It is official, their servers are down, and the promotion
will be held at another time. Their servers just crashed, complete overload.
