Make cool comic strips with Comic Life

To get started, simply decide how many panels you want, drag and drop pictures from your computer into each field, add a speech balloon, and there you have it. Once you get used to the basic features, move on to the included tools that let you filter your pictures to look hand-drawn, painted, and more.

There's a Mac version available for $24.95 and new beta version for Windows that's free while under development. If you download Comic Life now, you'll have plenty of time to make a few strips to upload at Zuda, the new DC Comics website that will host amateur comics beginning in October.
