Pocket Comic is a program for Windows Mobile devices that allows you to read comics or graphic novels on your PDA or phone. It also has the ability to convert and view PowerPoint slide decks in the CBZ file format suitable for viewing with PocketComic.
PocketComic looks good on normal devices and fantastic on VGA devices (640x480 or higher resolutions).
The latest version includes both the mobile device software and the Windows PowerPoint converter tool to create or convert your comics. Only the .cbz file format is supported so you will need to convert you .cbr files before transferring them to your device.This can be done easily wityh free tools such as 7Zip.
Both file formats are simple archives with a .cbz extension if it is a zip file and a .cbr extension if it is a rar file. To convert a .cbr to a.cbz simply extract the .cbr with 7Zip and then recompress it as a zip file. Then rename the .zip to .cbz. You can now copy this to your PocketPC or SmartPhone to view the comic (click on the images to enlarge):
The controls are very simple. From the menu you can activate full screen mode and also choose between actual size, fit width, fit height or fit screen sizes. To navigate through the comic you use the up and down keys on your phone/PDA to move forwards and backwards and the left and right keys control the zoom level. If the page is bigger than the screen you can simply drag the page around the screen using you finger or stylus. Finally, you can jump to specific pages from the Jump To menu option.
