If you know of a way to get these scans to work properly on your iPad, please inform me, I have yet to figure out a way to do so. I read a lot of them on my notebook, but I have never read one of them on my iPad. Boox knows, all too well, how much I wish I could do so.

Not optimal but you could convert back to zip or rar and open them to their original jpg and then view those

I am friends with a guy who it the IT professional for a school system that uses Macs exclusively. He described the process the other day.

First off, there are free iComic reader applications that are downloadable from the iTunes store.  Secondly, you need to find a way to get the files onto the iPad hard drive.  This is a loose description, as I do not have an iPad (...yet...), but sound similar to the process of how an iPod works:

You have a Mac (or PC) at your home that has the files that reside on it, and has iTunes as an application.  Your device (iPad or iPod) docks to the home computer, and shows up in iTunes as an attached device. You can drag and drop files back and forth from the collection on your home computer to the device thru the iTunes app.

The last piece is how to have your files show up in the iTunes app. ITunes is designed to be able to scan your computer for music and movies, and show them in your collection.  I haven't tried it, but this is what is biilling itself as that application:  http://www.bitolithic.com/comic-zeal-v4

Give it a try...and let me know how it goes...I am waiting to hear somebody who has it going.

This illustrates something very well. Although I am often considered tech savvy by many people, I am honestly more tech lazy than most of my friends, and family think...
