I have only just started to use this application. I like it so far, but I think I'll wait until I have more experience with it before I give it a rating. A few comments though:

1) The interface is, in some little ways, kind of weird. For example, PAGE_UP and PAGE_DOWN should be inverses of each other (I.e., one ought to undo the effect of the other), but in fact PAGE_DOWN goes down a page but PAGE_UP goes up a screen.

2) A nice feature would be for the window to display (when no image is being displayed) the title of the last file opened. For example, I am currently reading The New Avengers with filenames The New Avengers.001.cbr, The New Avengers.002.cbr, etc. When I finish an issue, I haven't necessarily kept mental track of which one I have just finished, so I don't know which one to open next. If the window told me which one I had just finished, I could select the next one.

2a) A *really* nice feature would be to recognize sequences like that and provide a button to open the next issue in the series.

3) "Comic Reader Pro" is a bizarre name for a freeware app.
