Has anyone found where we can subscribe to the Skylanders comic book? I am hoping that IDW will send it via USPS to my door.

Any comic shop will do a subscription for you. Just go in and say you would like to buy the Skylanders comic as it comes out and they will set a copy aside for you. There is no additional cost and it will be waiting for you on the day it's released. Not too many companies do direct comic subs anymore as far as I know. There are online subscription sites you can use but they don't generally offer anything all that special.

Yeah I don't believe that they will ship the comic to you, but like IWHBYD said, your local comic shop should be able to help you out.

Comixology has the comic in question, should you be after a virtual one (and moreso for people without access to comic shops like myself).

Same here. Purchased issue# 0 and subscribed, new issues set to begin in the Fall. $3.99 is a little pricey though. The comic was only 16 story pages, although the 4 bios at the end were a nice touch. I'm almost hoping they're monthly or bi-weekly.

Comics are $4 now and 16 pages. Wow. I have physical comics, but I agree digital is the way to go on this one.

RIP GhostRoaster. He's reanimated as TakeYourLemons but occasionally is resurrected from the beyond when needed.

Marvel and DC both still do direct subs. Not sure about the indie companies. And if you are looking to do a subscription through a comic book store, they will typically have a minimum amount you have to have on your pull list, but once you set up a pull list, you will typically get a discount. Mine is at least 5 comics, and I get a 20% discount. You're most likely not gonna be able to just sub to one comic in a comic shop. \

And this seems like a comic that most shops may order the minimum amount, if any. If you have a Hastings nearby, I think they may do single comic subscriptions.

Where do they do subscriptions? I haven't seen an order form in a comic for many years and I don't see subs on the DC website. I've never heard of a comic shop that has a minimum, but I can only speak for my local shops.
