TechRadar UK: ‘Digital comic’ iPhone app banned

TechRadar UK have a short interview with PJ where they examine the ratings system on the Apple iTunes App Store that we’re keen on having implemented for content other than games.

TR: Were you shocked that it was banned?

PJH: After we’d seen the other apps that were banned it wasn’t a massive surprise, no. Unfortunately, we were too far ahead in development to stop and start with something new.

TR: Do you think Apple were right to take this decision, given that the comic is, obviously, centred round comic-book violence?

PJH: I think Apple is right to do everything in it’s power to make the iPhone / iPod touch a mass market item, I think they’re wrong in allowing games in the App store to have ratings and not books or comics.

    He should have just uploaded the Comic Reader app WITHOUT Murderdrome. The Murderdrome comic is not very good. The Comic Reader IS a good idea. iPhones could be another outlet for comics.
