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.
This 1.3.5 update changes where default temp files are saved, to reflect the recommended guidelines; resolving some issues affecting some schools. This update also includes several other fixes.
This is a free update for all users and can be downloaded from our Downloads page.
@cesare - double page spreads will be in Comic Life Magiq!

In some rare circumstances the preferences file can get corrupted; this may be the problem.
Try trashing this file (you will need to reset your Comic Life preferences again).
1. Make sure you are not running Comic Life
2. Find the file ~/Library/Preferences/com.plasq.ComicLife.plist
(~ is the users directory)
10.4 users can just search for com.plasq.ComicLife.plist
Use show all
3. trash this file
4. restart comic life.
Does that fix it?
Please let me know how you go.

This update seems to have killed my Comic Life! It automatically downloaded but now I'm left with no Comic Life icon and any comics I created previously can no longer be accessed. Any ideas? I'd prefer to avoid buying the program again - mine came preinstalled on an iMac purchased about a year ago.

Just downloaded a copy of Comic Life and just feeling my way round it at the moment. One thing I would find very useful is the ability to have a double spread page so if I place a template on the left side it fills only the left side and not the hole page. As an example, I want a page to be A4 (portrait) in size, so as a double spread page I would make it an A3 (landscape) and use left or right part independent of each other
Many thanks
