ComicMint turns your ideas into fully illustrated comic, manga, and manhwa panels using AI — no drawing skills required. Describe a scene, pick an art style, and watch your story come to life panel by panel. KEY FEATURES - AI Comic Panel Generation — Describe a character, moment, or setting in plain words and ComicMint draws it as a finished panel. - Multiple Art Styles — Choose black & white manga, full-color manhwa, vertical webtoon, or classic western comic. - Multi-Character Conversations — Write a back-and-forth dialogue and generate a full sequence of panels, one per line. - Photo-to-Character Avatars — Turn a real photo into a consistent comic-style character that keeps the same look across every panel. - Custom Page Layouts — Automatically compose multiple panels into a complete comic page. - Character Library — Save converted characters and reuse them across projects. - Projects & Library — Every panel and page you generate is saved and organized, ready to revisit, reorganize, or export. - Save & Share — Save finished panels straight to your Photos, or share them to any app. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open New Panel and describe the scene you want, or use the guided Style Builder to pick details step by step. 2. Choose an art style — manga, manhwa, webtoon, or western comic. 3. Optionally add a photo to create a consistent character avatar, or add a conversation with multiple speakers. 4. Tap Generate. Your panel (or full sequence) appears in seconds. 5. Save it to your Library, add it to a Project, save it to your Photos, or share it directly from the app. SUBSCRIPTION PLANS ComicMint offers three auto-renewable subscription plans. Each plan unlocks every feature in the app — every art style, unlimited panel generation within your daily token allowance, character avatars, page layouts, and the full Library/Projects experience. Plans differ only in how ads are shown and in price: - Weekly Plan — All features unlocked. Banner, Interstitial, and App Open ads are shown. - Monthly Plan — All features unlocked. Only App Open ads are shown; no banner or interstitial ads. - Yearly Plan — All features unlocked. Completely ad-free — no ads of any kind. All plans include 3 comic-generation tokens per day, automatically refreshed every 24 hours. Need more in a day? A one-time, non-renewing 3-token top-up pack is available for purchase separately from Settings. Exact pricing for each plan is displayed on the paywall and product page before you subscribe, and may vary by region. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew for the same duration unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period, at the price of the selected plan. You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renewal anytime in your Apple ID Account Settings, under Subscriptions. Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription, where applicable. The one-time token top-up is a non-renewing, non-refundable consumable purchase.
