Both are free to download. Comic Book Studio sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and PixelStitch sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
PixelStitch holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2.
