GrabCartoons is a comic-summarizing utility. GrabCartoons is modular, and it is very easy to write modules for new comics.

Note: To avoid depriving free comic web sites of their well-deserved traffic, grabcartoons does not download the comics to the local machine. Instead, it creates a page with links to the comics at their original locations. Therefore, when a page generated by grabcartoons is viewed, the comics are downloaded from their original pages and not from local copies. Furthermore, the link to the graphics are extracted from the comics' web pages, which grabcartoons downloads when it runs. Finally, each comic in a grabcartoons-generated page is a link to the original web page.
