I just installed mcomix from Debian Stretch (version 1.2.1) but I cannot load any WEBP picture.
I saw a previous patch that enabled WEBP so I came to ask if I did something wrong maybe.
Thank you very much for your ticket. Apparently, there is a bug that prevents Pillow (the successor of PIL) from being used to load WebP images.
For the time being, you can work around this bug if you can modify the script files MComix consists of and apply the attached patch which enforces using Pillow. (Users of current revisions in the Git repository might also need to disable animations via the Preferences dialog.)

I hope this helps.
You can also get WEBP support by installing the corresponding GDK Pixbuf loader: https://github.com/aruiz/webp-pixbuf-loader.
