The incomparable Jennifer LaGarde put together a list to make this the best year ever. She designed a great poster from her list in Comic Life. She did a phenomenal job making use of all the different design options available in Comic Life. Check out those drop shadows and the custom style she created for the speech balloons.

World Cup 2014: Brazil!
Here at plasq we are all pretty excited about the FIFA World Cup. It’s crazy. The talk about code and user requests and site updates is paralleled with conversations about the games, what happened with that foul in the opening match, how many goals have already been scored this year. And, of course, we have some good old fashioned rivalries between our little international team. In the end it’s all good fun. So here’s our hat tip to the host country, created in Comic Touch…

Scripting Comics In The Classroom
We’ve been having deep thoughts about script writing and education in our offices lately, and I wanted to reach out to our community with them.

New York Times Comic Life Review!
I’m not sure if you’ve heard of this little publication that’s been around a while, The New York Times. They just put out an article about making your own comics, and guess who is at the top of the heap? That’s right, Comic Life! Yeah, baby!
Here are some excerpts from Kit Eaton’s article, Transforming Your Photos Into Comic Strips:
“Of the comic book apps I’ve used, Comic Life, $5 for an iOS version, has the most features and works best on an iPad because of the bigger screen.”
“Because the app relies on your photos to create stories, you don’t need any drawing skills to get a good result.”
“I love the way the app allows you to edit tiny details, from the shape and style of word bubbles to the size and placement of each story cell.”
