ComicScraper

A userscript for readallcomics.com that adds a download UI to series pages, letting you grab any range of issues as CBZ files.

Installation

  1. Install Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey
  2. Create a new script and paste in the contents of .user.js

Usage

Navigate to any series category page, e.g.:

https://readallcomics.com/category/batman-2016/

A download bar appears on the page with three controls:

Control Purpose
Range input Which issues to download. Leave blank for all.
Download CBZ Downloads the selected issues one by one.
Test #1 Fetches issue #1 and logs found image URLs to the console — use this to verify the scraper works before a bulk download.

Range syntax

1        → issue 1 only
1-5      → issues 1 through 5
1-3, 7   → issues 1, 2, 3, and 7

Output

Files are saved to your browser's default download folder and named:

Series (YEAR) NNN.cbz

Examples:

  • Batman (2016) 001.cbz
  • Amazing Spider-Man (2018) 023.cbz

The series name and year are parsed from the category URL slug. If the slug has no year (e.g. /category/amazing-spider-man/), the year is taken from the issue link text if present, otherwise omitted.

CBZ files are standard ZIP archives of numbered page images and can be opened with any comic reader (Komga, Kavita, CDisplayEx, YACReader, etc.).

How it works

  • Fetches each issue page via GM_xmlhttpRequest (bypasses CORS)
  • Tries several CSS selectors to locate comic page images, with lazy-load attribute fallbacks (data-src, data-lazy-src, data-original)
  • Downloads each page as a binary arraybuffer
  • Packages pages into a valid ZIP using a self-contained CRC-32 + ZIP builder (no external libraries)
  • Triggers a browser download of the .cbz file
