The only formats I use are CBZ and CBR. Though the PDF plug-in is easy enough to install.

OK I bought PV and it looks good. I misread the PDF plugin earlier as costing another $3 - that's why I asked about it. Since it's actually free I went ahead and got it too. So I should be all set.

(I also installed Firefox on my HD10 so I can now play poker on my HD10 and start getting some real use out of it).

Thanks for the help...

Anyone know how to get Arca-Max to deliver? Or another source for daily comics that actually works?

CBZ and CBR formats work like a dream in Perfect Viewer, right from the start. The .pdf plug-in is free, and it works really well also.

In the Google Play store Perfect Viewer is free. But I've been using it to read digital comics since I bought my first Andoid tablet in early 2011. Since it is free, there are donation versions and I've bought several over the years.

The options can be daunting and confusing, but once you have everything set, it's a great program.

53 item collection ($25), I think with little or no overlap with the July bundle. Includes part of East of West.

I can't get the Humble link to work for some reason...

If anyone is interested, here's a list of the 88 volumes in this bundle. The PDFs add up to 37GB; the EPUB and CBZ are 23GB each so it's one of the largest so far by that measure. There's about a week left on it...

Any thoughts on the latest Humble deals?

Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's epic Jack the Ripper story From Hell is on sale for 12.50 at Amazon US or ComiXology. This is the Master Edition, which has been colorized. It's a giant of a comic at 582 pages with meticulous notes at the end where Moore goes occasionally panel by panel explaining the research he did.

If you are only familiar with From Hell via the Johnny Depp movie (which I did like), the graphic novel is a whole different and much better thing.

Quote:

Jack is back—and this time, the blood is red. The award-winning bestseller FROM HELL—often ranked among the greatest graphic novels of all time—takes on haunting new dimensions in FROM HELL: Master Edition, enhanced by impressionistic hues and revisions by Eddie Campbell himself, along with all the original annotations by Alan Moore.

The $18 and $25 levels overlap heavily with the deal last May, but the 50 volumes of new content for $10 looks pretty tempting.

Abbott by Saladin Ahmed, Sami Kivela, and Jason Wordie is $2.99 on Amazon.com

Quote:

ard-nosed, chain-smoking tabloid reporter Elena Abbott investigates a series of grisly crimes that the police have ignored. Crimes she knows to be the work of dark occult forces. Forces that took her husband from her. Forces she has sworn to destroy.

The four current volumes of Resident Alien by Peter Hogan and Steven Parkhouse are $3.99 each on Amazon.com
The first volume's description:

Quote:

A stranded alien seeks refuge in the small town of Patience, USA, where he hides undercover as a retired doctor. All the alien wants is to be left alone until he's rescued. However, when the town's real doctor dies, "Dr. Harry" is pulled into medical service,and finds himself smack dab in the middle of a murder mystery!

There's a Humble Bundle of Dungeons and Dragons comics. This includes the late '80's D&D comics from DC (well, most of them*), which makes me happy. I really liked their Advanced Dungeons and Dragons and Forgotten Realms series.

I also liked IDW's Dungeons and Dragons and Dark Sun series (you have to pay $25 to get all of those though).

Anyway, lots of good comics here if you like fantasy, wizards and monsters. Comics that aren't about superheroes. How novel.

*I wish they would republish Spelljammer and Gammarauders, but those were weird comics that never sold well.
