I’d like to buy a French comic I can’t find online from any store that sells French Bande dessinée (Amazon, fnac or anything else) and then ask for a refund so I can keep a nice *.cbz or *.cbr file on my hard drive.

Any guide out there on how to properly de-DRM comics? I’d like something easy if possible I’m tech and computer savvy enough but not “coding” savvy

    Do you know what format the comics come from Amazon (and if they actually have DRM)? I’m not sure if I’ve ever done it with comics but ebooks from Amazon usually worked well with DeDRM for Calibre:

    Last time I did it I had to use a Kindle app on Android to get the file which was kind of a hassle but it worked in the end.

    If you get it into Calibre, you can just convert it to zip in Calibre, export the zip, remane the file ending to cbz, done.
