Describe the bug
When using this tool to download more than 2 comics at a time from readcomicsonline.il
The files are downloaded too fast and I suspect I'm getting blocked from readcomicsonline. As all files start coming as size 1Kb
Adding a delay does not seem to resolve the issue.

To Reproduce

used F:\Download\Windows 10\ComicDownloader>comic-dl.exe -all -format cbr -timeout 3000 -url https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/Nova-2017
After a few seconds I get a "file correctly saved". All files show 1Kb in size

This seems to happen at random since sometimes I get the capcha request on the browser and it works.. but again only downloads 2-3 files before getting 1Kb files.
NOTE, I also tried PDF and other formats, the result is the same.

Expected behavior
A few MB worth of cbr or PDF comics.

Additional context
Trying this comic downloader since the other I used to use is riddled with bugs and hasn't worked in windows for 2 years now.

Hey @Tamalero,

are you still facing this issue? I tried this morning and everything was fine.

Yeah, delay is not intended to be used in that way, it works only when the downloader run as daemon, I have to improve the readme and the help text because it is misleading.

Heya!
Still having some problem with some files. In this case Strange Academy 1 to 4. I still get a comic with the file size of 1Kb. The rest download fine (5-11)
I'm not sure if it has to do with my internet speed (200Mbps fiber ) or the cookies.. or what..

URL to comics: https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/Strange-Academy

After that...I tried with https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/Rocket-Raccoon-2016 and all failed with 1 1KB sized files. No error reported in the program.

F:\Download\Windows 10\ComicDownloader>comic-dl.exe -all -format cbr -url https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/Rocket-Raccoon-2016

edit
I forced reload my screen, later I got the capcha protection... and the files downloaded. I think comicdl has a protection to prevent mass download.

Ok I'll try to provide a workaround
