Do you just love to read comic books? Well, now you can easily manage your stories and magazines on your Windows 8 based device by using a dedicated client which will help you organize and store your favorite comic books, while ensuring the best reading experience you can get.cover windows 8
Reading comic books on a Windows 8 based device should represent an in-built feature, but unfortunately, for being able to properly enjoy an ebook reader-like experience, you first have to download some tools on your handset. In that matter you have to download the comic book you want to read (you can use apps like ComiXology or Barnes & Noble) and then – this is only recommended though – you should also use a dedicated client which can provide you the best reading experience, whether you are using a touch based device, like a laptop or tablet, or a classic desktop or computer.
