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.

G.EEK HAPPENS: a new comic strip! |
|
Launched just over 6 weeks ago, "G.EEK HAPPENS" is a fantastic new web comic that follows the adventures of George Eek and Peter Ebkac. One is a Geek; the other is a PEBKAC. The site currently has English, German, Italian and Russian translations. One of the exciting things - from our perspective - is that they are using Comic Life to put it all together. Ben Fox, the creator and lead writer of "G.EEK HAPPENS" says this about our beloved software, "I would not know what to do without Comic Life. With any other tool it would take me ages to finish the multiple language versions." Thanks Ben! - everyone should go take a look ... really :)
