I bought one digital Comic ( Batman #251, the Joker story). I only got it that way because it was too pricey to get the physical copy. Digital is great for reading, but not much else IMHO. I don't think you can "own" a digital copy of anything. That's funny because the only digital comic I purchased was also Batman #251. This was my test run and I did not purchase any other comics because you cannot download to your desktop or read offline... If I have no control I do not feel it is justified or worth spending my money on. I do however have a large collection of digital comics I obtained from torrent sites, but before you lecture me on piracy keep in mind that due to obtaining these digital copies it has inspired me to buy several hundred back issues and collected editions which I would't have done if it Weren't for digital making me want physical media as well. In fact before digital came along I had stopped collecting for close to 15 years. One thing: Just to make it clear you can download some publishers/series to your dektop and read it offline. Comics from the big two no, but if you buy various other publishers' comics, most promintly a lot from Image, from comixology you can.

If your only or main read is marvel or dc then yes that will be a problem for you but if you enjoy other publisher or comics then you can do exactly what you are asking for. I just wanted to make that clear. For someone like me who buys mainly non big two when it comes to new comics, mostly at 0,99$ sales, its a fine enough deal.
