Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Random Comics at 100% against Game Emulator's 41%. Random Comics also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Game Emulator's advantage is ratings volume (109 vs 1) and device support. On price there is nothing between them.
