A simple app for illustrated stories
Comics is a digital comic service from Comixology. You can search for, purchase, and read plenty of tales using the app. You can access the comics in several ways, but the offline reading option is the one that stands out most.
Tons of popular heroes
With this application, you can carry the world of illustrated novels in your back pocket.
The obvious attraction of Comics is the variety of visual stories that it has in its collection of over 100,000 digital comics. Along with a manga selection, you can choose from individual series from DC, Marvel, and other publishers.
When you navigate the Comics menu, it’s easy to find what you’re looking for and start reading. The viewing experience is pleasant, and the swap from panel to panel is smooth.
With the Comixology Unlimited subscription, you can borrow up to 50 titles at a time and download them for offline reading, which is great if you like to take some reading with you on a trip. You can also sync your purchases and downloads across devices, so you can pick up your reading on a tablet screen if your phone doesn’t cut it.
Unlike other reading apps, like Kindle, there’s no function to start off from when you last finished when you come back to the app. You can expect to lose a lot of time when you return and have to find your spot all over again. While the app is smooth to use, there are a few issues, including errors when you sign in to an account and slow downloads that tend to restart.
Where can you run this program?
This app runs on Android 6.0 and later. It’s also available for iOS.
Is there a better alternative?
No. It offers a great choice of comics in a readable format. Other choices include Comicat and Challenger, but they don’t match the level of quality of this app.
Our take
Comics is almost a dream come true for comic fans. Apart from the faulty resume function and the odd error here and there, the app delivers in terms of variety, content, and ease of use.
Should you download it?
Yes. If you want to find your favorite comics or try some new ones, this app is a good way to do it.
