Glad to help, it sounds like a great idea as long as you're not on company time! :)

However I have not found a good comics reader for my own Kindle and I have been reduced to moving my collection to pdf: comics in pdf format are perfect for my 8.9" screen, but most of my collection is in cbr/cbz files, so that's a bummer.

Unless... do you have any rec for a good free cbr reader on the Kindle?

Hrm not sure. Check back here tomorrow? I am about to go to bed so I will look then. :)

Okay, I forgot what I did to read CBR files on my kindle but now I remember. I would use Calibre (a free program) and convert the CBR files to MOBI files (which can be read on a kindle). I think I tried PDF but MOBI looks better overall.

I did try some apps that would read CBR but they were all terrible. :|

Is the order the comics are in (in the torrent), the order to read them in?

Thanks!

Oh, I'll try that, thank you so much... I am a big fan of Calibre, but I never thought of trying the mobi format for comics, even though it's what I use for books! And yes, all the cbr apps are terrible which is why I avoid them too. I suspect it's because they are not really cbr reading apps as much as targeted at people who want to buy/subscribe to current comics.

About order, the naming convention (the filename) indeed indicates the reading order and complete collections usually break down whole runs in sub-folders as appropriate. These are can often be numbered so you know in which order you should read these series.

Deadpool by himself is often a fun read, but the whole madcap and crazy Cable & Deadpool 50-issues run was the pinnacle of both characters in my opinion.
