I usually download from libgen and read on Panels on my iPad, but often issues of the same series use different naming conventions and they all get mixed up. Is there any way to semi-automatically rename and organize comics?

Comicrack is really the best. It's amazing for wireless sync. The software was abandoned by the dev but there's actually a pretty great community on Reddit for it. Theres a workflow there someone made that essentially you can dump all your comics into a folder, and (you do have to do some of the input) within 5 minutes you'll have all the comics tagged, labeled, organized into appropriate folders, all the metadata, and ready to sync to your external tablet. I just synced 8000+ comics last night with it

I would love to figure it out, I'm afraid there are some roadblocks I'm figuring out the right method of getting it to work properly.

This is the workflow I used. I did have to do a decent amount of customizing to get it right, changing folders, adding publishers, but now its really easy. I can dump 300+ comics into a folder and have them organized in a really short time. Getting it started did take some time, but once the work flow was setup it is actually really great
