Naturally they clash and we find ourselves telling the story of the aftermath of this clash some 500 years later. Where we follow the journey of The Old Lady and the young boy, Jakob.

Our Process
Comic Design Process Overview
The Web of Ideas
We kick off the process by creating a character description document, which includes personality type, wants, needs and fears and anxieties. We then create a story beat-sheet which is an outline of the story – we’ll visit this again in the script writing stage.
Drawing Outside the Box
Our team of artists will develop the visual style and direction for the comic book, we create character designs, environment concepts and agree on a colour palette for the book too.
The Write Stuff
Our writers revisit the story beat-sheet and develop this into a detailed script that outlines the story, dialogue, and narration of the story. The script can include panel descriptions, page layouts and reference material.
The Red Pen of Doom
Once we have client sign off, our artists create a storyboard of the comic from start to finish so we can review the visual delivery of the story in entirety
Pencil Me In
Using the storyboard, our artists create detailed pencil sketches that lay out the composition and detail of each panel of the comic.
The Fine Line
Our artists then ink each of the sketched panels, creating the final line art.
Colour Me Impressed
We apply colour to the line art, either digitally or by hand, to bring the comic to life based on the previously agreed colour palette.
Let's Get Typographical
Our team adds dialogue, captions, and sound effects to the comic pages.
The Final Countdown
Finally, we send the completed comic to our printers for production and agree delivery and distribution with our client.
Case Studies
We produce original stories for the Comicspiration Universe, as well as comic content for our clients.
