About

ComicVerse

Features
Read full description

You describe a scene. ComicVerse draws it. Say who's in it, where they are and what happens, and you get back a comic page: panels laid out, characters drawn, the words already sitting in the speech bubbles. If a page comes back wrong, change what you told it and run that page again. Do a few of those and you have an issue. The comics you make end up in the same library as the ones you read. MAKING COMICS β€’ Write a scene, get a finished page back. Pick an art style if you have one in mind, or leave it and the app will choose something that suits the story. β€’ Any page you don't like, rewrite and regenerate. You're never stuck with the first attempt. β€’ Easier to show than explain? Sketch the layout on the canvas and generate from your sketch. β€’ Put a cover and interior pages together as one issue. Your characters keep the same face throughout. β€’ Export a finished comic and do what you like with it. READING COMICS β€’ Reading is free: no ads, no subscription. Credits are only for making comics. β€’ CBR, CBZ, CB7, CBT, PDF and EPUB files, read properly: smooth page turns, a panel-by-panel mode that finds the panels for you, and a scrubber for skipping ahead. β€’ Single page, continuous scroll or two-page spreads, and right-to-left for manga. β€’ Big files open quickly and stay that way. β€’ Your library sorts itself into series, so issue 4 sits next to issue 3. β€’ Point it at your Komga or Kavita server, or any OPDS catalogue, and read straight from there, or download first for somewhere with no signal. β€’ Bring in files from the Files app or from Dropbox. WORTH KNOWING β€’ On iPad you get a sidebar and a reader built for the bigger screen, not a stretched phone app. β€’ The Home screen keeps track of what you've been reading and what you've been making. β€’ Sign in with Apple and your place in every comic follows you between devices. β€’ Nib, our mascot, turns up here and there. Needs iOS 17 or iPadOS 17, on iPhone or iPad.
