I hope I don't detail the thread too badly here.
I know you mentioned you use an iPad, which has a 4:3 ratio. Have you ever read comics on a 16:9 ratio screen?
I'd heard 4:3 was closer to the true ratio of a comic, but now that I have tablets in both ratios, that's simply not true.
On my 4:3 Windows tablet, there are bars on the sides of the screen. On my 16:9 Android tablet there are bars on the top and bottom. But if I open the same comic on both devices and lay the two screens on top of each other, the page on the Android tablet is bigger.
I know manga is closer to 4:3 and so are British comics. But for American comics from the '70's through now, the Android tablet gives a bigger image on the same-ish size screen.
Sorry for the diversion.
