SuperFX is available on devices with A12 and M1 and later processors as an in-app purchase with a free 2-week trial.
Compared to our previous ComicBook! effects, SuperFX is a game-changer. It offers significant visual enhancements and improved resolution, and the SuperFX styles are fully automatic. They optionally have three different detail options, each with three different halftone types, including CMYK and an all-new line screen.
Our SuperFX effects are high-definition and generated directly on the user's device, ensuring complete privacy and the ability to use them without an internet connection.
At our core, we believe in preserving the original traits of a photo while adding cutting-edge effects. Unlike other generative AI, our models do not alter personalities or hallucinate objects. Additionally, we trained our models on ethically sourced and homemade datasets.
*The one and only Joanna Mulder lovingly drew the vast majority of our 374 included stickers
**PDF files are only editable in external applications such as Adobe Illustrator and Inkscape.
We commit to continuously improving ComicBook! 2, and we encourage everyone to suggest ideas for future updates free of charge!

Super handy app! 5 star for sure. But at the same time I have a few suggestions for some features that maybe developers can make them better in the next version. 1. Photos cannot be cropped in this app. We have to crop and adjust them before we add them into comic blocks. 2. I guess the developer designed this app for mostly English users, because the Captions are weird in sizes if I type in Chinese or Japanese characters. Also the Chinese characters font type are not adjustable. Title caption can only use in English. If developers can fix it that will be wonderful. 3. Captions have only one direction (left to right). If you can provide a top to bottom directions, that’ll be great. 4. Captions cannot be tilted or rotate. 5. Only one font type can be selected in one caption, which means I can’t highlight one or several words within a sentence. 6. Stickers can be vertically flipped but not horizontally. Overall, this is a great app. I really hope developers can fix the Chinese and Japanese characters problem soon, because I know that not only myself but many people like to type characters in the comics and make it cooler. Thanks!Lincoln
Solid: Used for over 10 years!

I have used this app for over years to create posts for social media, make cards for friends, etc. I’ve never had any technical issues. This is a solid app for making easy comic book style images. There may be Canva, AI and other apps, but I live the hands on control of resizing/opacity change/ placement of “stickers”. I love this app so much- great job on design guys!
Basic with notable issues
Woodx5501
A bug has been introduced which makes this unusable. The circles used to manipulate the caption tails now export with both pdf and images making the output flawed. You can do basic layouts with this app and it’s fairly useful for that. However it can’t do the one thing you think it might: make a book. The only way to create a book is in app. You can’t view it outside. To do that you have to export pdfs or images and build it yourself with other software. Which is now broken due to the caption tail issue. Caption types are limited. Only one form allows you to size the box. No typical “radio” message type caption bubble. In your saved pages, there is no obvious order. It seems like last update sorted them by regency of edit but there is no way to sort by name for instance which is hugely inconvenient. Pictures also can’t be locked in place unless you apply the comic book filter appearance to them. Overall it’s ok for a quick layout but it quickly runs into usability problems.
Developer Response
In our testing, caption hints are not saved with images or PDFs. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with support@3dtopo.com so we may troubleshoot the issue you seem to be experiencing. Actually, all captions can be manually resized; please contact us for usage hints. Pages are sorted by modification date. You can apply an effect that doesn't make any changes to lock the images if you like (for example, Classic->Adjust Image), but we will consider adding a lock option. Thanks for your suggestion.
Good Tool - UI Could Improve

You can realize your quick comic book ideas with this app.The layouts, bubbles, and stickers are great.There are a two focus areas that would make this app more enjoyable to work with.Saving, organizing, and navigating your work is confusing and scary. When I create a book, how do I navigate to and edit the next page? Why am I getting a message that my work may be lost when I had just saved?And positioning items is scary. Sometimes, the 'Lock Button' for a panel image is hidden by speech bubbles.I would love to see a menu that shows me where I am and allows me to navigate elsewhere. Am I editing a singular page? Am I viewing a book? Am I editing a page within a book? There should probably be a main menu.The tools are there, and they are great tools. The interface just makes me nervous that I'm going to lose or mess up my creations.
Developer Response
ComicBook! always works on a single page. If you just saved then your work is saved. It asks if you want to keep elements for possible reuse (for example you want to change the layout but keep the captions and stickers you have). Any pages saved are really saved, you don't have to worry about that. The book feature is independent of any pages you've created and just allows you to add existing pages to a book. Deleting the book does not delete your saved pages. Only deleting saved pages will delete them. If we put the lock buttons above everything else, it would interfere with the content. The only time you are viewing a book is when you view a book. Anytime you create a book you are using the current version of the page. If the page changes, it will not change in the book. The book is a simple feature that allows you to combine pages and save it as a multi-page PDF or view it as a book.
Two new speech bubble background colors: gray and black (user request)
Two new text colors: gray and white (user request)
Fixes a potential issue that could cause locked images to become unlocked
