Your first comic, step by step

The studio has four tabs, and they are the four stages of making a comic. You can move between them freely, but there is a reason for the order.

1. Cast

Describe each character once and lock them. A locked character carries a model sheet into every panel that includes them. Without one, faces drift from panel to panel — this is the single biggest difference between a comic that looks made and one that looks generated.

2. Pages

Say what happens on the page. Komiks scripts it into panels — shots, framing, dialogue — and then draws them. Panels appear one at a time as they finish rather than all at the end.

3. Cover

Generate covers and choose one. The cover is drawn separately from the interior pages, because it is the only thing a reader sees before deciding to read.

4. Publish

Put the issue on your public page, or export a CBZ or print-ready PDF. Both are free on every plan.
