Comic Zeal Updates with Retina Graphics on the iPad

From the App Store:

Hi all, do we have retina for you! CZ 5 looks wonderful with retina graphics on the new iPad. Hope you all enjoy. Also added auto sorting and the ability to put comics in the home page. Turn both of those on if you’re after the ‘ol CZ 4 experience.

- Added option to auto-sort a series when new comics are added to it on import.
- Added option to auto-sort the home page after an import.
- Retina graphics throughout.
- Comic Zeal will generate high resolution thumbnails when the device has a retina display.
- Comic Zeal will now try harder to find thumbnails to represent a series if there are dividers present in the series.
- Comics downloaded from bitolithic are no longer backed up.
- The ‘new comics are western/manga’ is infinitely more reliable.

I don’t read too many comics, but when I do, I always use Comic Zeal. I’m very happy to see this much awaited update finally happen for the 3rd generation iPad — comics have always showed up fine but the pixelated interface was a letdown when we last checked out a group of comic apps in May. Bitolithic’s blog post discussed the update on May 3rd in anticipation for its eventual release — Comic Zeal 5.1.4 was finally made available on June 3rd. Comic Zeal is available on the App Store for $4.99.
