Super simple and easy to setup. It does only use GetComics and ComicVine but it’s reliable. It also supports mega login well. The UI feels a little off compared to other starr apps but still familiar.

I chose to try Kapowarr because Mylar failed to get Venom comics from GetComics repeatedly. I suggest giving it a try though, and development is active, altho it’s not “stable” it’s worked perfectly well thus far.

Only issue is when I put it thru nginx styling is lost? idk probably a me issue really

    It’s an *arr app without usenet/torrent support? Seems like an odd choice.

    But at least it looks like they haven’t ruled it out in their github as a feature request.

      Yeaa not ruled out as it is in super early stages, I would like to have torznab support to make more use of my Trackers honestly.

      We’ll see :)

      Usenet doesn’t have much from what I can see relating to books and comics. I’m part of I think 8 or 9 indexers and I’ve had to find alt sources.

        Perhaps, I’ve never really kept track of that content on usenet. But without usenet/torrent support that does make this *arr app kind of incompatible with the rest of the *arr ecosystem, just seems like an odd design choice.

        I don’t look for that type of content too much but usually I’d just download packs from public torrent indexers e.g. Nemesis43 / Nem43 still uploads to 1337x and Demonoid. Those torrents often get mirrored to TorrentGalaxy too.

    I tried it a month or so back when it was first released. Seemed really basic, which I guess is fine for an initial release.

    My issue with it at the time was there wasn’t any way to import any existing comics I already had.

    I’ll need to spin it up again and see what has changed since I last looked at it.
