I strongly prefer the screen on the new basic Kindle where text feels strong and bold. While the light is nice, I never liked the way that text looks on the Paperwhite. It feels hazy and washed out to me. I know that speaking technically the Paperwhite screen should be the clear winner, but to my eyes with their astigmatism the basic Kindle screen looks much better.
Magazines and especially comics are terrible on a 6 inch e-ink screen. If those are a high priority, you definitely need a tablet (at least 7", but preferably something at least 8.9", without question bigger is better for magazines and comic books).
Magazines that are primarily text based like Lightspeed Magazine work fine on an e-ink e-reader.
