If you're looking to get your kids or grandchildren started in comics, Comic Creator Studio is a good option.
It mostly uses pre-made characters and backgrounds, so you don't need to worry about making your own assets. This also makes it really easy to use, and kids will have fun dragging and dropping art into all the pre-designed backdrops.
Adjusting text and thought bubbles is easy, as is dropping words into them. There are more than props to use in your creations, and a vast number of backgrounds to set the scene. You can buy expansion packs too, like superheroes, to give more variety to comics. It doesn't quite have the same variety as ComiPo! You can even upload photos, so your kids can put themselves into the comic.
While the creation tools are simple, you can adjust layers individually, offering deep levels of control over your creation. Advanced users should stay away - there are so few drawing options, and the simple style of the comics won't be for everyone. Younger users and families, however, will love this. If you love manga, but you don't feel you have the skill to draw all the wide-eyed characters and backgrounds yourself, then Manga Maker ComiPo!
It deals mainly with pre-made character models and scenes although you can import your own if you feel up to it , allowing you to simply drop characters into cels, manipulate their pose using the software's impressive 3D models, and add text. It's a simple and effective way to create manga. And if you don't like manga, well, why are you even reading this far? You don't get a vast amount of scenes and characters in the base version of this software, and it's only compatible with PC, so Mac users are excluded.
Because there are no real drawing tools, it's tough to create much variety or unique feels for your comics. We do like the fact that comics are layered, so you can make changes to specific elements without resetting the whole cel, and there are even sound effects to help enhance your creations. It's perfect for newbies and youngsters, but more serious artists will find it restrictive.
Comic Draw is an easy-to-use comic making app that is exclusively for the iPad. That's great value. Comic Draw is perfect for beginning artists and professionals alike. You'll appreciate being able to find brushes, ink colors and other tools easily, and if you're using a digital pen which you really should be you can create illustrations on a par with most home computer programs.
It also includes many advanced tools such as perspective guides to help you accurately draw landscapes and buildings. This means it is designed for the comic book artist who loves to draw scenes, opposed to the storytellers who love to create plots. We also like the script maker, which helps you create and format your dialogue. We recommend the iPad Pro. You'll also really need a digital pen to make the most of it, especially as you can accidentally add marks when you're using fingers to zoom and rotate.
Comic Life 3 is a little different to other comic creators on this list. You can make comics here by importing images and photos, which are then treated with a stylized filter to make them look and feel like comics.
This is a really neat way to show off your narrative skills, even if you don't have any aptitude for drawing and illustrating. You can add a variety of speech bubbles to create dialogue, and there are plenty of pre-made background to choose from to add variety to your scenarios. Comic Life 3 draws on the fonts already available on your computer, and it has a built-in spell checker, which is a rarity among comic makers. You can even set sound effects to play when you're both reading your comic and creating it, which will delight younger creatives.
The downside is that there are no layer options, and you don't have a choice when it comes to adding a comic filter to anything you upload. So if you want to add something that's already comic styled, it will still get an extra comic filter added to it.
It's a simple program to use, relatively cheap, and it gets great results - especially for those who don't have the art skills to create their own comics from scratch.
If you're looking for something truly simple then Pixton is ideal. It's perfect for kids, family, and educational use, and you can get various versions of Pixton based on what you'll primarily be using it for.
You get a free trial too, so you can play around with the basic version before you commit to buying. Pixton uses all pre-made assets, and there are plenty available, although you are restricted to quite young-looking comics here.
Ideal for the target audience.
