Digital issues

The digital issues were known as "chapters," which split a full-length physical copy into two. It was supposed to be twelve "chapters" long, but this iteration proved to be short-lived, being cancelled after only four were released. The "chapters" were removed and replaced with the full length versions. The digital "chapters" can still be viewed if you bought them, however.
