Comic Life packs a lot of 'Brawn'! |
Cranium Comics has recently launched their first four color comic, Brawn #1.
"I used Comic Life on my Mac exclusively to lay out the storyboards, then later when I created and colored all 24 pages of the issue," recounted Anthony Rezendes, the owner of Cranium Comics and co-creator of Brawn.
The comic 'Brawn' focuses on a dockworker named Sam Ross who was reborn as the hero "Brawn" after he was nearly killed in a drunk driving accident.
"Being an illustrator, it saved me quite a bit of time from having to lay all the text bubbles out manually. It made the process of actually creating the comic that much more enjoyable," Mr. Rezendes added.
We think this comic is great! So check out 'Brawn' on the Cranium Comics site or read the first 5 pages on our Comic Life gallery.

I'm primarily a musician, and I suppose that because of that I have a desire to work with beautiful and well designed things. Computers on the whole are not well designed, and we the public have been fooled into thinking that this is OK. Well, time to make a change. Let's talk haptics, lets talk non-modal designs. Lets talk reliability. Expression and intuition.

I am a software developer who is curious about understanding how things work, and how they should really work. So I am writing AudioUnits (and other stuff too), most of them trying to be different.
One day, I'll be a musician too.

I've been developing software professionally for almost twenty years and I love to combine interesting technologies to create new products. I dabble in music and art - but programming is my life. plasq is a great team to work with to cook up new cool software and freshen up some of my prior projects. Factoid: my first computer was an Atari 400 - loved those sprites, sounds and programming the VBI!
Mark Pearson - Technical Support and Quality Assurance - Tasmania, Australia
With an affinity for computers from a young age (loved the Commodore 64!) and a desire to help create cool software that people actually enjoy using, I joined plasq. I have a background in Marketing and computer technical support plus my enjoyment of using computers has made working with the plasq crew a perfect fit. Plus I get to beta test unreleased software -- sweet! ;)
Ted Slupesky - Portland, Oregon, USA
One of my first real jobs was working for a little company developing software that ran on the NeXT computer. Although my career took me in different directions after that, I never lost my love for the AppKit and Objective-C. Being at plasq lets me work on fun projects with great people and use the best software development environment -- how great is that?
