Seriously, I've got, like, gigabytes of comics scanned in, and most readers choke trying to even list the files. This app, "Comic Book Reader (cbz/cbr)", actually handles it. The interface isn't going to win any design awards, but the file management is surprisingly efficient. I can actually rename stuff, sort by series, and generally not feel like I'm back in Excel hell trying to wrangle data. Plus, the rendering is clean, and I haven't had it crash on me *yet* when dealing with large files, which is a statistical anomaly in itself! The developer is Android Tools (ru). I wouldn't say it's beautiful, but it's functional, and sometimes that's all a data analyst like me needs. It's a solid 4.5/5 stars for a reason. Makes reading comics on my commute statistically satisfying. Now, if only it had an API for custom scripts...
