>What is this thread? Every Wins'day at Win-O'-Clock we gather here and post links to the latest scans and rips of comic books. Most links we uploaded ourselves, others we are sharing from elsewhere. Some comics we've even purchased ourselves (but most we didn't). If you'd like to help out, just ask and we would be delighted to tell you how. Otherwise, be patient, be polite, and understand the simple concept behind these words: Not posted means not available yet.
>Where can I find downloads for other comics? Warez forums/blogs, DDL-indexing search engines (like FileDiva), torrent trackers (like ExtraTorrent) and other P2P networks (like DC++). If a link has been posted on Sup Forums, you can search for it in the Desu archive (add "http*" to searches to return only posts with links). If all else fails, just >buy it.
>Where can I buy comics? comixology.com/ amazon.com/ On the various publishers' webstores, and at your local comics shop.
>How do I download from websites that only give me .exe files? Untick the checkbox under the download button.

They're repackaging comics to make the files 50%+ smaller without compromising image quality.
I don't want to shit on their usp because the site was great as Comix4Free and does good work now too, but it might be something for win o rippers to look into?

If the loss is negligible, why do you care?

Nicholas Brooks
>it might be something for win o rippers to look into Not about to start transcoding JPEGs into lossy WebP, which exclusively uses 4:2:0 color space, resulting in noticeable degradation for most JPEG->lossy WebP conversions. OP of that site (probably (You)) is also too illiterate to tell the difference between containers and raster formats.
"So it’s simply just changing the container.
JPG in general is a heavier container, PNG is a slightly “less clunky” alternative to JPG with some added size savings, but webp easily trumps them all in."
>but muh docs! Converting JPEG to lossless WebP nearly always increases filesize, retard. Run a magick comparison on those repacks to the originals and you'll see it's lossy WebP.

Nice.
Connor Ramirez
>Converting JPEG to lossless WebP nearly always increases filesize I tried this just to see and this wasn't the case ( although the size saving wasn't much ).
>Run a magick comparison on those repacks to the originals and you'll see it's lossy WebP I also tried running lossy just to see and the size drop was pretty huge ( w/o much if any noticeable loss in quality ... but that might just be me ).
Here's the image I started with.
Alexander Hill
That's a bloated JPEG. Was your WebP smaller than this? 12% smaller: i.imgur.com/ajN5k46.jpg (Can't attach b/c dupe file error)
Alexander Taylor

Charles Sullivan
>That's a bloated JPEG Dunno: just something I saw in the last thread that struck me as funny ( AngryAnon's Daddy Issues! ).
>Was your WebP smaller than this? It worked out like this: >convert input.jpg -quality 100 -define webp:lossless=true output.webp
But Sup Forums won't let me attach the webp files ( Error: Corrupted file or unsupported file type ) although they display fine with the imagemagick display command. Mcomix won't display them either even if I zip them into a folder and rename as cbz.
So it's a pretty moot point unless there's something I'm missing ( like the need to specify libvpx and no audio for a webm to work here.

>Mcomix won't display them either even if I zip them into a folder and rename as cbz. Works fine in Okular, however. Go figure.
Nathaniel Ortiz
>So it's a pretty moot point unless there's something I'm missing It's probably just that Chrome is the only major browser natively supporting it and Sup Forums only stores one version of the image + thumbnail, so it'd break compatibility on most things w/out WebPJS bloat.
>technical talk about encoding image files >no actual comics posted.
Samuel Martinez
>so it'd break compatibility on most things Sounds legit.
I just figured since they'd allowed ( a particular flavor of ) webm they'd also allow webp.
Hudson Mitchell
>>no actual comics posted DC doesn't usually start to show up till 2am or so; and everything else shows up much much later. Like: if you're just here for new rips you'd be better off just coming back around Noon-thirty tomorrow, senpai.
I hope someone rip Wings Of Fire Volume 1 The Dragonet Prophecy from GRAPHIX

I hope no one ever rips this.

Wednesday! The only day when Sup Forums deserves to be visited. The only day when you meet tripfags and namefags who do NOT deserve a bullet to the face. The only day when you can unfilter the names of the Big Two in your 4chanX.
Today is Wednesday.
Asher Perez
It's a comic so it can get rips.
Evan Campbell
You're the only one who deserves a bullet for posting this crap weekly.
Michael Torres
>it's an AngryAnon gets triggered episode!
Jayden Brooks
Post some 0-day comic rips instead of this spamming nonsense.
Jayden Morgan
Hope Batman 38 is as good as the reviews are hyping it up to be.
Ryan James
No.
Cooper Cruz
I'm sure BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT BAT CAT will be great
Luis Ramirez
>Hope Batman 38 is as good I was surprised at how not-autistic the dialog was in the annual and the last issue. If they can just keep that up ( and avoid backsliding into shit-tier poser "art" ) they'll be halfway home.
Anthony Hughes
Fuck off doggo-san.
Lucas Baker
Thanks user, I blocked userscloud for good and I didn't want to go to WWT for just one comic
Jackson Jackson
I for one am glad that more people are seriously taking into consideration the usage of the WEBP format.
Cameron Stewart
>DC doesn't usually start to show up till 2am or so It's past 3am here ...
Joshua Carter
That's how it starts. The fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns 0-day waiters... cruel.

LMFAO please educate yourself more before you throw random facts out. With ANY image conversion since the image is being essentially compressed twice you will have a VERY slight loss in image quality but nothing noticeable for how we all read our digital comics unless you want to zoom in and read it pixel by pixel

Okay
