Wonder Reader Description
Although Hollywood-produced superhero movies are arguably one of the most successful genres nowadays, comic books still have a lot going for them as they offer a very rewarding visual and reading experience, besides a lot of other advantages.
This said, getting your hands on your favorite or even some of the rarest comic books out there might actually mean that you have to sell your house or even some organs but, fortunately, the Internet can deliver an impressive diversity of comic books, some at decent prices and other even free of charge.
With that sorted, all you need now in order to peacefully read your comic books with the help of your computer is, of course, a specialized reader application, for example, Wonder Reader.
Read comic books on your computer with the help of this funky app
Simply put, Wonder Reader is a no-frills, modern Electron-based piece of software that allows you to read your favorite CBZ and CBRĀ format comic books within a distraction-free environment.
The application does not require installation, therefore, you just need to download it, unzip its package and launch it via the designated executable file. Although the utility sports a simplistic user interface, it’s quite clear that we have a modern application on our hands.
Stylish interface that sports easily accessible controls
The layout is clean, the fonts are well chosen, and the few features are easily accessible. In addition, it also comes with two retractable panels, that make it as comfortable as possible for you to manage your library of comic books.
As expected, you can change the zoom levels using the slider, switch between the one-page or two-page view modes, turn the previous or the next page and load new comic books from their location, all with the help of the buttons on the top toolbar.
Quite good, as it stands, but it could do with a few more features
Of course, especially now, there’s still a lot of room for improvement, for example, more keyboard controls and extra zoom functions would be nice to have in the future.
Furthermore, and this is only a suggestion, a straightforward screen capturing feature with instant social media sharing capabilities might make every reader even happier since we all know how awesome is to lose yourself in endless discussions with other people that share your passions.
An honest, lightweight and modern comic book reader
Yes, although the application is not what you would call riddled with features, the app works and looks nice and if you are not a nitpicker, you should be able to get along with it just fine.
