Today we have implemented the "noimageai" meta tag site wide on GlobalComix. This is not a question of opting in or out - we do not want our platform used to source image data for AI models anywhere.
We're thrilled to announce these new partnerships as part of our leadup to the launch of the GlobalComix App. Once the app goes live, you'll be able to enjoy some of the most iconic stories in comics and entertainment history.
CBR EXCLUSIVE: GlobalComix, a platform for digital books, comics and manga reading and distribution, partners with Image Comics, BOOM! Studios, Archie Comics as the company readies to release a new mobile app.
