About

The Focal Comic Reader

Ours. Not a plugin, not a licensed viewer, not a PDF in a frame — a proprietary reader built for these books, on Materia.

• A real cameraEvery beat is a rectangle in page space, eased into the next. The first beat of a page is the whole page, so you always see the composition before it pulls you through it.
• Drawn, not embeddedThe page is painted to a canvas. There is no image in the document to drag out, no source in the inspector, and the focus falloff needs pixel work anyway.
• It remembersWhere you stopped and every option you chose, per issue, in your own browser. Nothing about it reaches us.
• Everything is optionalFocus, the camera, two-page view, commentary, power chrome, the mirror. All of it switches off.
