Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Saga at 5.0 against Official Comic's 3.1. Saga also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Official Comic's advantage is ratings volume (459 vs 3) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
