Sadly we are unable to provide App support on Amazon devices such as the range of Fire tablets.

If you own such a device you can access our webstore via your web browser at: https://shop.2000ad.com/ and download products in both PDF and CBZ formats.

The vast majority of the issues, graphic novels and specials on the 2000 AD webshop are also available in digital versions. Once purchased these digital editions can be accessed from an internet browser or via our app on both iOS and Android.

 

Subscriptions

A digital subscription entitles you to access issues on release date in digital format.

You can download your issues in the app, or alternatively you can download them in PDF and CBZ formats from the webshop.

Digital subscriptions are available to purchase through the 2000 AD webshop or through the app.

Please note that subscriptions purchased via the app are managed by your device's app store, i.e. Apple or Google Play, rather than by Rebellion. We are able to help with entitlement related issues but refund requests must be directed to your subscription provider.
