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.

Re:Panel Layout Scaling w/Custom Layouts - 2008/05/16 15:18 I have an interface problem that I feel is fairly serious.

I investigated places to print the comic and comixpress that you suggested on your website looks very good.

My concern is when selecting the custom layout size "Zine 8 x 10.5" the background of the page is "whited" out as shown in KeynoteKen's screenshot above.

Any suggestions as to how I can correct this in my workflow as I want to position items appropriately using background colours/images etc but I cannot view them when working in the layout I will print in.

Thank you.

Re:Panel Layout Scaling w/Custom Layouts - 2008/05/17 19:59 Hi Russel,

I'm not quite understanding what it is you want to do. But if you want to work with layouts while not seeing any 'white', that is possible.

Re:Panel Layout Scaling w/Custom Layouts - 2008/05/20 12:17 I solved the problem. I turned off the bleed margins (set to 0 pt) and the background theme became viewable again.

Once I am ready for my final export I will turn the bleed margins back on (set to the default 9 pt) and then export.
