Amazon has revealed five new Kindles, including its first full-color e-ink tablet. The Kindle Colorsoft is a brand-new addition to the lineup, and it's a potential game changer for fans of comic books and graphic novels.

If the Kindle Colorsoft works well, you will be able to read all of your favorite full-color comics, graphic novels, and manga as intended, with the inherit benefits of an e-ink display. It releases October 30 and is available to preorder now for $280. The Kindle Colorsoft sounds even more appealing when you consider Amazon's Comixology Unlimited subscription service. Comixology Unlimited offers over 45,000 comics, graphic novels, and manga for $10 per month (after a free 30-day trial). The catalog includes comics and graphic novels published by Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Image, and other leaders in the visual storytelling medium.

The Kindle Colorsoft releases October 30 and is available to preorder now for $280.
