Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: COMICTRADERS at none against CaptCan Comics's shown. COMICTRADERS also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and device support (3 vs 1). CaptCan Comics's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 11 months). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
