You need to fix the technical problems and take the subscribers consideration
1. Every time I open the app, it shows the guides meant for a first time user. "There's more to explore!..." and opening a comic  "You are in panel-mode" - I just opened the app, and closed it and opened it again, and it happens every time. I have been a user for one and a half years. It's happened for several months now, and each time I have to switch to the one page view I USE EVERY TIME.

2. Why does the app know at which page I'm on, but the webpage doesn't? If I read on webpage to page 10 of issue 3, and later open the comic on the app, it goes to page 10 of issue 3, but when I go back to dektop, it opens issue 1 page 5 or something. Happens every time. It's really annoying.

3. With the wave of paid comics, it's hard to find out what is available for subscribers. There is a filter "Paywall", but when you click "Gold" it shows also all comics you have to buy. You need to make a clear page that isn't cluttered with stuff you have to buy. All "new" catagories are filled with comics you have to buy, but this is supposed to a a subscription service.

4. The search function has gotten worse in the last six months. And when you click on a comic on the search bar, it goes to the comic and only then shows whether you can read it, or have to buy it.

I have forgiven a lot of small problems with the site since I've thought that it was good for indie creators and publishers, but now that it's turning into a web shop for Marvel, DC, Dark Horse and Kodansha, you really need to make the technical stuff work.

Re: New GlobalComix web version - bug reports
I wrote about the following problem on January, and it seemed to get fixed in a day, but it has come back in the last two weeks:
"While reading a comic with Single page/Fit to width settings, when you scroll down the page and move to the next page, the next page starts at the bottom part, and you have to scroll up the page, then back down, and again scroll up. It's really frustrating, and that didn't occur on the old version."
It's one line of code to get it fixed. But I'd appreciate it if I wouldn't have to ask for the same fix every few months.
