Comictastic - dedicted comics reader for the Mac
If you're a fan of comics - both the old-school syndicated ones that appear in your local newspaper and the newschool web based comics - you may find it useful to have a dedicated reader for them. And Comictastic may well be the best tool for the job. Not only can it help to keep your feed reader clear of the silliness of comics, Comictastic has some dedicated comic functionality that you won't find anywhere else. Unfortunately, there are some comic publishers that have not see the light with respect to providing RSS feeds. For those comics that you would like to regularly read but don't have a super-convenient feed to subscribe to, Comictastic has a page scraping mechanism that will allow it to attempt to import each new comic image as it appears on the comic's site.
We should warn you that Comictastic is no longer being actively developed, however we've had no issues with the version that is currently available. Comictastic is free Mac application (if you can tolerate a nag screen every time you launch it), and while you can purchase a license to get the nag screen to go away, even the developer acknowledges that you may not wish to do that for an application that is no longer being developed.
