We are delighted to offer a beta of our upcoming Comic Life Magiq 1.0.3 update.
It has numerous stability and significant performance improvements over 1.0.2.1 - so we would love previous users to download and let us know if you come across any issues.
A free update for Comic Life Magiq is available for all users.
Identical to 1.0.2c in all but version number, which has been changed to ensure 1.0.2 users are made aware of the 1.0.2c update via the menu: Comic Life Magiq > Check for Updates...
This 1.0.2.1 update is recommended for all 1.0.2 users and fixes a serious saving issue introduced in 1.0.2 that caused images to be left out of the document.
If you're already running 1.0.2c (v10939) you can "Skip This Version".
Head to the plasq downloads page to get the 1.0.2.1 update or update from within Comic Life Magiq.
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.
Ever wished you had the fun of Comic Life handy at all times? Ever been out at a party, family gathering or on public transport and wished you could add your 'comic touch' to a photo? Now you can!
We're giggling with glee to announce Comic Touch for iPhone and iPod Touch. Add various speech balloons and captions to your photos. Choose a fun special effect to warp and bend your family and friends, then email the results to them!
Still have to color it, but the workflow from Manga Studio to CL Magiq is as smooth as nicely aged whiskey

First off, last week Smith-Micro (finally) released the update to the mac version of Manga Studio that allows it to be used with the Leopard flava of Mac OS X (10.5).
When sorting though the files and just futzing around, I noticed that the OS could do a quick look at Manga Studio CST files. Neat, I can now quickly look at the stories w/o starting up the program.
Now I'm playing with my fresh copy of Magiq and I dragged the folder that contains all my Manga Studio files. Imagine my surprise when I found out that Magiq can "look" inside the Manga Studio folders and show the individual pages -- which can then be selected, dragged and dropped on the current Page.
I can then add lettering and such. I'm still a bit busy with school and such, but I hope that I'll have some time to muck around with this combo/workflow soon. I attached an image that is more-or-less just a proof of concept. The artwork was imported as described above with just some titles added.
