Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: cukoo at 75% against The 616 Comics's 33%. cukoo also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 9 months). The 616 Comics's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (120 vs 15). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
The 616 Comics holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The 616 Comics has 120 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of The 616 Comics's written reviews are positive against 75% of cukoo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
The 616 Comics ships an update every 9 months, cukoo every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
