Whether you purchase the GitCorp DVD Marvel comic book collections, or you (cough cough) Torrent the files, the reality is that the pdf files used for these collections are a user-unfriendly format by which to view comic books. Especially if you want to view them on a tablet.

I recommend downloading Jonty Lovell's Comic Converter (just google it) and using it to convert the pdfs to the cbz files compatible with dedicated comic viewers like CDisplay Ex, Android Comics Viewer, or Perfect Viewer.

Depending on the horsepower of your PC, converting a full year's worth of issues files - say, around 125 MB of pdf files - to cbz files compatible with dedicated comic book viewer software takes less than 5 mins. You can use Comic Converter to customize a number of details about the conversion process; it's a very user-friendly app.

Do keep in mind that the converted files are many times larger than the pdf originals; so 12 issues of pdf files that take up 125 MB will balloon to 300 MB when converted to cbz format.

I used Comic Converter to convert the pdfs from `SpiderMan Unmasked' to cbz files and was quite pleased with the results on my Acer Iconia A500 10" tablet.

Because GitCorp uses a double-page, landscape orientation to display the original comic book pages, I had to spend 5 minutes or so tinkering with the settings in Perfect Viewer, after which I was able to view the comic in a single page, full-screen, portrait orientation.

Viewing the cbz files on your PC desktop monitor, laptop, or on a tablet, is markedly superior to the native pdf system.

LOVE this!
I can put the PDF files on my iPad and read them when I travel!
