yoink
A CLI tool for downloading comics from readallcomics.com and packaging them as .cbz archives.
How it works
- Fetches the comic page and extracts the title and image links
- Downloads all pages concurrently with Cloudflare bypass
- Packages the images into a
.cbz(Comic Book Zip) archive - Cleans up downloaded images, keeping only the cover (
001)
