We Are All Geeks Here, But Anyone Collect Comics?

Featured Replies

Used to collect comics ages ago, now I collect the scanned versions

They have an extension of .cbr or .cbz (just renamed .rar/.zip) , a file is just a collection of image files

Use a proggy called CDisplay, homepage is: http://www.geocities.com/davidayton/CDisplay

Don't think comics would survive in this humid climate for long!

Easy way to while awaythe odd hour.

Don't know CDisplay but it doesn't appear to read pdf files which is essentially what most cartoons are stored in. Try ComicRack.

Phil, I can't comment/explain any further as it would break the rules of this forum. But you are wrong.

I recently got into comic books. I read them using Comic Book Reader on my HTC touch HD phone. They look incredible on WVGA. No need to to zoom. I can see the whole page and read the text. If you don't have a VGA screen, it has a Zoom Lens function which and highly and zoom just the text area. The program supports reading from images or .zip/.cbr etc format. It's free and highly recommended.

The huge bookshop in Siam Paragon has an excellent and very up-to-date selection of graphic novels. The Joker GN arrived here pretty much the same time as it did in the US

I buy many GNs there... current faves are "Walking Dead", "Invincible" and anything by Garth Ennis

Tried getting into digital .cbr and .cbz comics but it hurt my eyes too much so stick to GN from Paragon
