Comic Life is great for sharing those funny little moments from school, in the office, or while on worldwide progressive-rock-legends tours.
Robert Fripp and Tony Levin have been sharing the day-to-day stories of touring within one of the most influential prog rock bands - on King Crimson’s 40th Anniversary Tour.

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.

Thanks - we are looking how best to add that functionality at the moment.
Once everything is added, yes you will be able to transfer comics between Mac's and Window-based PC's.

I have unistalled and reinstalled but it still happens. Unfortunately it is behind the comic life icon when it comes up so i can't get any more details. After closing the error message in task manager the program opens but then closes automatically... Any thoughts? i would love to get this working on my computer!
Nickv, are any crash.dmp files created in your Comic Life folder?
If so can you please email them to clwinbeta@plasq.com

Text either gets bigger than bubble or bubble reduces in size, cutting off end of sentence. I have noticed this happens in output to image(s) as well. It takes a bit of guess work to get your boxes the right size so that they don't have words cut out off when exported.
Thank you. We will look into making it more WYSIWYG in the next update... Sorry about the inconvenience.News, hints and sock puppet antics - Sign up to our mailing list: http://plasq.com/register

Tracey, does Comic Life crash? If so, can you please email the crash.dmp file located in your Comic Life directory to clwinbeta@plasq.com
Are you trying to print a large document? Are you able to print a one page comic with just a balloon on it okay?
