Do You know any comic book readers available? Then please share it!
What is special about a comic book reader? It should help to read the text bubbles in the comic books.
A comic book archive or comic book reader file is a type of archive file for the purpose of sequential viewing of images, especially comic books. (from Wikipedia)

I made the Mieru offline manga and comic book reader for Maemo 5, MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan and BlackBerry 10.
The source code is available from Github under GPLv3:
Currently the GUI is using PySide and Qt4 but I'd like to eventually port it to PyOtherSide and Qt 5 so that it could run on Sailfish OS. But I'm currently rather preoccupied by working on the modRana flexible navigation system, so I can't really give any timeline for the Mieru port. The source code is there, so anyone is free to start on the port or help me with it. :)
Hi, and thanks for the insights. I checked Mieru and it looks like a really nice app. Someone may port it to Sailfish, I hope.

KDE Plasma widget Comic Strip could be used as a starting point: http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdeplasma-addons.git&a=tree&h=2f810f143a791cd24f1f91fe3c35d4559ddf7a2c&hb=869f6ce1c7dd1a4c7de8d7c37eab2e628dd947df&f=applets%2Fcomic
