+## How Does This Compare to Rarebit?
+
+[Rarebit](https://rarebit.neocities.org/) is an excellent static webcomic template that inspired this project. Sunday Comics offers a different approach with its own strengths:
+
+**Sunday Comics:**
+- Server-side application (Flask/Python) that runs on a web server
+- Comics stored in a Python file - edit text to add comics
+- Includes an RSS feed generator and helper scripts
+- API endpoints for programmatic access
+- Markdown support for rich-formatted content
+- More flexibility for custom features and integrations
+- Requires Python installation and basic server setup
+
+**Rarebit:**
+- Purely static HTML/CSS/JavaScript files
+- Comics are inferred from static images upload - edit a JS to customize
+- Can be hosted for free on GitHub Pages, Neocities, etc.
+- No server or programming language required
+- Simpler deployment - just upload files
+
+**Which should you choose?**
+- Choose **Rarebit** if you want the simplest possible setup and free hosting
+- Choose **Sunday Comics** if you want server-side features, plan to add custom functionality, or prefer working with Python
+- Both are great options - it depends on your technical comfort level and hosting preferences
+
+Sunday Comics is meant as another option in the webcomic toolkit, not a replacement for Rarebit. Many creators might even use both for different projects!
