There's a reason ComicZeal is the best rated, most popular comic reader on the iPhone.
An interface designed by renowned graphics firm Elixir shows large comic covers presented in beautiful shelves. Bookmarks and bags show you which comics you've started reading and which you've finished. Boxes let you know there's a whole series just a tap away.
You can read your own comics and graphic novels, but you can also use a Wi-Fi connection to download hundreds of Golden Age Comics and Jim Shelley's Flashback Universe for free from our servers.
Reading comics is a breeze, we've got the best zoom implementation of any reader. Use pinching to set the zoom level and ComicZeal remembers it for the rest of the comic, page to page. Double tap to move from page fit to zoomed in view.
Press the arrow watermark to bring up the reading panel, quickly scroll through the comic using the scroller, lock the orientation or take a screenshot of the comic to use as your iPhone wallpaper.
Don't like the arrow watermark? no problem. Turn it off in the Settings app. A long press on the screen will bring up the reading panel instead. Talking of settings, you can turn off the shelves and revert to a text-only view, select if you're left or right handed and choose between western and manga modes.
ComicZeal has been optimized for HOW and WHEN you read comics. We know sometimes you're reading while standing on a train, so the interface can be operated one-handed. We know sometimes you're reading in bed, so you can lock the screen orientation. We know you want to see the detail in the covers, so we worked very hard to ensure we could show you large covers and keep the scrolling smooth.
Shortcuts you need to know:
- Push a comic page left or right to change pages.
- Push a comic page down to return to the shelves.
- Double tap on the bottom-left corner or the area to the left of the watermark to change pages.
- If you press the iPhone's 'Home' button while reading, when you start ComicZeal again, it will automatically load the comic you were at and take you to the right page.
Do you want to read your own comics?
- Use ComicZeal Sync to convert cbr,cbz,pdf,zip and rar files for use in ComicZeal.
- You'll need a Wi-Fi enabled Mac or PC to communicate with ComicZeal. Check out the bitolithic.com website (link below) for the downloads and instructions.
