Simple Comic

New Version works Great so far! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/simple-comic/id1497435571

There is a New Version of Simple Comic over at the App Store. It's actually been there for a while. Different/New Icon; The Developer is Nicholas Vance - Not sure if he's the Original. Maybe he's someone who redeveloped it to work Better, and to work with Big Sur, after the Original Developer disappeared. Seems to work the same way, except without all the Bugs it developed over the Years. Recommended! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/simple-comic/id1497435571

Sorry to give such a great client such a crappy review, but the Dev still hasn't fixed the main Problem that his last Update created. I get "multiple validation errors occurred" almost every time I try to open a new file.

Version 1.7 (252) (not R2) has been released!

Great ap... but I'mm assuming since the last update was 2010, it won't work in 54 bit Mojave?

My first-choice app for reading comics.

Simple y muy práctico. Perfecto.

The best stable feature rich simplistic digital comic book reader for the Mac! I bought the Humble Transformers Bundle 2 and was looking for a good comic reader for my Transformers digital comics and found this! I read bad things about ComicBook Lover being unstable and not working with Mac OS X Mavericks -- I am running Mac OS X Yosemite and I found Simple Comic and read good things about this program. Even though it is free, I donated money to support the developer and as a way to say thank you. Please consider donating to the author/programmer of Simple Comic and support good quality software on the Mac.

This is a GREAT comic viewer.I agree with Mutant. It is fantastic and shows the comics you have accurately.

it's one of those programs that you never notice because it always does what it's supposed to, and nothing less, or more.

App is great, I recommend this to anyone who want's to read comics easily. Donate!

is there a way to turn of the mouse icon magnifying feature while in fullscreen mode? Love the app, all help appreciated, thanks :)

Without a doubt in my mind I think this is the finest comic viewer available on a mac. I specifically say VIEWER because that's its job. It doesn't download, manage, ituneify, or promote.. It simply handles the job of viewing comics -- AND MORE -- with ease and simplicity. In PathFinder I can use SimpleView to browse directories of images with a couple of clicks, drag a compressed file onto SimpleCOmic and it will find all the things it can view and you are off. Hats off to this developer for such an amazing free application. Thank you.

Really good viewer. My only complain would be the changed icon. The previous black/white icon was better than this one, maybe it can be optional.. Of course it is only a small point compared to the viewer itself. One of the few programs I keep in dock. :)

I like it a lot! My only suggestion is that when viewing the two page spread, there be a small break between the two pages. Make it easier to distinguish where one page ends and the other begins.

Great app right here! One suggestion: black background on fullscreen view instead of white.

Total newb to e-comics. Just downloaded my first .cbr file and am very pleased with this program. It follows the OSX look and is very simple/elegant. I am hitting the LATER button for now, but will definitely donate if I use it more than a few times. Kudos!

SimpleComics is the best cbr/cbz reader for OS X. It is fast and simple, but there is one thing I need to change: the Default page layaout is two pages and I want it to be just one. Everytime I open SimpleComics 1.6.1 it goes back to "two pages" (so i have tho press Cmd+P). Can I change it permanently? Thanks,
