The end has come for the PSP Digital Comics service announced Sony, who says that the last batch to go up will be the last update for the service.

The Digital Comics on PlayStation Portable allowed comicbook fans to download digital copies of their favorite comics to read on the go. The last update included issues of Batman Beyond, Transformers, Ender’s Game, B.C. collections and a Suicide Girls comic among others.

The service will end with over 4,000 comics available for you to download and peruse! Quite a nice collection!

Sony further states that the Digital Comics service will probably be revived later down the road, such as for the PlayStation Vita, but the end has come for the service on the regular ol’ PSP.

“The Digital Comics Team will continue to work on bringing the comic service to other Sony devices.”

Have you ever downloaded a digital comic on the PSP before?
