Sorry, I don't understand your question. Could you rephrase it?

You want a comic processor running on an android device? Some image processing ops are rather heavy, not to mention you would probably want to sync back processed images in case of data loss (I've had to resync my processed comic collection to my iPad a bunch of times since sometimes my comic viewer required a reinstall which would wipe out all the comics). I would love to write my own viewer app though.

I view GUI the same way. I think if I make one it will be separate from the main app and will simply act like it is making a command line call. You could still handle multiple calls using a queue that could be saved (similar to a shell/batch script).
