Comic Life is great for sharing those funny little moments from school, in the office, or while on worldwide progressive-rock-legends tours.

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.
and then check the Login Item box in the System Preferences Pane.

I've tried the universal beta, but it runs as a PowerPC app according to Activity Monitor
I was ready to pay up (have only had my Intel for 10 days) but when I saw it was still PowerPC . . .
Any news? Do you guys have the rights to this? It is a very useful item.
Hope it comes out for real, soon. I won't like being without it.

hi there...are you guys still working on Peripheral Vision?

Just following up on the login startup issue under Leopard.
You can solve this by manually adding the application hidden inside the prefpane to your login items under System Preferences. The path to the necessary application file is as follows : /Users/YOURNAME/Library/PreferencePanes/Peripheral Vision.prefPane/Contents/Resources/Peripheral Vision.app
To see this application, you need to control click on the prefpane "Peripheral Vision.prefPane", select Show Package Contents and drill down. Note that there are two Peripheral Vision.app files hidden in the prefpane. You need to add the one noted above to the login items.
Works for me from login now without the need to hit "Start" under System Preferences.

Any news on Peripheral Vision. Just installed beta on Intel Leopard and only gripe is that it fails to start up when I log in. This bug already spotted by an earlier poster.
Great utility otherwise

Add my vote for PV!
I'm going to also talk it up at MacWorld San Francisco next month.
