Simple yet robust application for reading Comic Book Archive files. You can download comic books directly from Mobile Safari, or from other file handling apps like Filer and Drop Box, and view them in Comic Book Reader without using a computer or any special software. Or, you can copy your entire collection from your computer using iTunes and organize them visually using simple collection filters.

The comic books are loaded directly, with no conversion, and displayed fullscreen. You can swipe from page to page, pinch to zoom and pan seamlessly. Tap on the margins to quickly switch pages, and tap in the middle to bring up more controls, including a quick page selection slider. You can also set an individual collection to be read right to left, for a more authentic Manga reading experience.

Collections are simply named filters that will automatically organize your comics. Type the name of a series that you wish to organize, and any files matching that name will be put together on your bookshelf, automatically including any matching files you add later. When you open a collection, you will see a coverflow of all its files. Your reading history will also be remembered, so you can quickly get back to where you left off.

However, if you wish, you may use another app to organize your comics, and use Comic Book Reader as a simple viewer. Supports CBR, CBZ, RAR, and ZIP archives, containing images of several possible formats. Any application that supports document handling can use Comic Book Reader to view these files.

This app does not provide any source for downloading comic books, please supply your own files.
