I've found this software to be incredible and easy to use and I love it, I ask this because there are some comics that require you to be logged in in a website in order the view the pages and webcomix can't download the comic for this reason. I was thinking that maybe using the browser cookies of the logged in website would solve this problem.

This could be done, although it would also depend on the kind of cookies, since some might not easily be changed since session tokens are handled differently by every website. I could potentially check if we can add a specific cookie name/value entry to handle login if possible. Do you have an example of the kind of site that would require log-in?

yes, for example https://www.theduckwebcomics.com/ is such a site, some comics can't be accessed if you're not logged in.

I just added a new feature that allows people to pass cookies by adding --cookie <key> <value> to a webcomix custom command with webcomix 3.11.0. Let me know if it works well for your use case!
