Marvel Pulls the Plug on Marvel Unlimited as Webtoon Takes Over Its Digital Comics Library

Marvel is shutting down Marvel Unlimited, the digital comics subscription app it has run for nearly two decades, and handing its library over to a brand-new reading experience built with WEBTOON. The companies confirmed the partnership heading into NYCC season, with the resulting app — simply called the Marvel Comics app — set to go live on November 16, 2026.

Marvel Unlimited won't disappear overnight. Marvel is giving subscribers a transition window, with the legacy app staying online through December 7 before it's retired for good. That overlap gives longtime readers time to migrate their accounts and get familiar with WEBTOON's reading interface before the old service goes dark.

The move folds Marvel's digital back catalog into the same WEBTOON infrastructure that already powers the publisher's Infinity Comics line, pointing toward a more mobile-first, vertical-scroll-friendly reading experience going forward. Marvel hasn't detailed pricing or confirmed whether every Marvel Unlimited perk carries over, so expect more specifics as the November launch gets closer.
