cbxv – high fidelity comic book viewer

cbxv is a native, desktop application for viewing comic book and manga (.cbz and .cbr) files.

It stays lean and fast by eschewing any sort of extraneous web technologies or library management features. It distinguishes itself by focusing on features for manipulating the layout, so that the art and story can be appreciated closer to the original intent.

• Layout Persistence.
• 2-Page, 1-Page and Strip Layouts.
• Page hiding.

• Unique HUD Interface.
• Drag and Drop File Opening.
