Thanks for the patch!

I'm yet to actually test running the application. Will do so and get
back in a while. Meanwhile, other changes.

You can remove the comment. It's more or less obvious from the
'arguments' section that mcomix needs python 2.

These are inputs not propagated-inputs. propagated-inputs are only
required for python libraries. For python applications such as mcomix,
the executable gets wrapped in a script which sets the correct
PYTHONPATH variable. Look at $out/bin/mcomix and $out/bin/.mcomix-real

Also, is the gtk+ dependency required? mcomix seems to build and run
fine on my system without it.

Please make this "MComix is a ... ". See

This should be license:gpl2+. When no license version is explicitly
specified in the source headers, it is of the "or later" variant. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-02/msg00026.html

Also, add a copyright header for yourself at the top of the source file
(gnu/packages/image-viewers.scm in this case).
