Che cos'è un file CBZ?
A CBZ file is a comic book archive saved in the Comic Book Zip (CBZ) format, which is a .ZIP file with a .cbz file extension. It contains multiple images, commonly .PNG or .JPEG files, typically organized into folders that correlate with the pages and chapters of the comic. CBZ files may also store metadata, including a table of contents, story information, and the artists that created the comic book.
