So I'm asking for lists of all the comics that you guys read, so I can look at them and add support for them to the program. The more comics it can read out of the box the better the program gets. That and I might find some more good comics to add to my personal list. 
However, there's a few things that don't work yet/ever:
* Use Javascript to display their images (example: www.wtfcomics.com)
* Are shockwave/flash comics (I'm not writing a shockwave player)
* Don't have the images inline, but as seperate links (example: www.angryflower.com)
* Require logins or cookies to browse through (example: Warpkeen)
* Don't have a static front page URL, or use 3xx redirects from this
page (example: Life of Riley) (I'll probably fix this eventually, it shouldn't be too terribly hard)
If you're curious about the program itself, you can find it here.
Couldn't find a list, so I'm going to assume 8-bit Theater isn't on it.

I can't think of any others right now.

It automatically snags new comics and lets you easily view them! Though I never used the program so lack specifics.

So it is the same kind of program as is being talked about here?

Not exactly. It's not automated like how he's talking about, it's more like a minimalist web browser. It only downloads the images it cares about (ie no ads), but there's no way to just 'one click' the entire website.
As for the rest of these comics listed, I'll look at them after I get back from my evening History class.

Works
Least I Could Do - Added
Striptease - Added
Ghastly's Ghastly Comic (NSFW) - Added
TA Vision (NSFW) - Added
Magical Adventures... IN SPACE - Added
Achewood - Added
Mostly Works
Foxtrot - Added (No Archive Browsing, Uses META Refreshes)
Bob and George - Added (Some of the comics are flash comics and won't work)
Real Life Comics - Front Page Works, but I'm waiting for site to settle before I fix it completely
Order of the Stick - Mostly works, but I need to fix an internal program problem to get it perfect (should be transparent to users)
Camelot Addict - Mostly works, slight problem with some extra newlines confusing the tag parser (thought I fixed this, but I guess not) so archives only sporadically work
Overcompensating - Added (No Archive Navigation, no easily predictable links)
Doesn't Work
WTF comics - Won't work, uses Javascript to display images (see first post)
Alpha Shade (flash comic) - I said no Flash comics!

I guess that's fine, though. Just as long as we understand each other.
Arcana (arcana.keenspace.com) is a beautiful epic comic, I think. The plot and art start out a little sloppy as its her first comic, but if you keep reading, I'm sure you'll find it as rewarding as I did. I should warn you, half of it is a love story and that love story is a yaoi between a weak-willed boy and a vampire, so if any of those things offend you, then obviously you wouldn't want to read it.
That's about all...forgive me for the intrusion...
