This is easily one of the most popular
comic sites around. It is so popular because not only do the comics look
great, but they are also very easy to create. There are options that
give you enough of a range where both children and adults will be able
to use the site to make comics that are relevant to them. It is also
increasingly popular because it is available in many languages and the
site is always looking to ad new ones as well to their options.
Because it is so easy to use and so
simple in nature, you might find it limiting if you are trying to get
some more abstract idea across, and the colors that are offered are also
fairly limited, especially for the background of your pictures.
is easy enough for children to use, but there are enough options for adults to get a message across, too. Users can choose from 25 characters to fill a two-, three-, or four-paneled comic strip. Currently, the site supports typing in seven different languages. There are plans to add Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters in the future.

2) Pixton
The best part about this site is that
there are three comic-making sections. One is for having fun, one is for
children and educational purposes, and the third is for business needs.
It is very easy to use as well, all you do is drag and drop into the
comic what you want to see there. It is one of the most advanced sites
as far as customization is concerned, and there are literally endless
choices for tweaking your comic and making it come out exactly the way
you envisioned it.
3) MarvelKids
If there is a company that knows
something about comics, then I am pretty sure that this company is
marvel. It’s no surprise that its comic creation site is great as well,
even though it’s simplistic. One thing that is great is that there are
tons of different panels you can use, so you are not constricted to the
usual and boring boxes that most comics use. The characters you can
choose from, of course, are all of the famous Marvel heroes and
villains, including the Incredible Hulk and Wolverine. Also, you can do
fairly interested and in-depth comics at this site, since it offers you
the option of going as long as 22 pages. If you like making comics with
these famed Marvel heroes, you’ll love it, but if you want to do
something more original, then this is not the site you are looking for –
go elsewhere.
4) ToonDoo
This is probably one of the best sites
if you are looking for both versatility and ease of use. It allows you
to be creative and really make the comic original, but it is also very
user friendly as well. There is a huge library of images and characters
that you can use, and the tools are very simple to implement and
navigate. There are two tools of significance at ToonDoo, the TraitR
tool, which helps you to customize your characters, and the DoodlR tool,
which allows you to paint freely within the comic.
There’s no room really at this site to
work on your own style, but the characters that are offered are great to
jot down some quick office humor and share it with your coworkers. One
thing that is great about the site is that you are able to adjust the
frames and make them longer and wider if you need to.
6) Chogger
Chogger is great because it lets you
draw images from scratch if you do not want to use the images that are
already available on the site. Another great feature you get with the
site is that it allows you to connect your webcam and capture pictures
that you can use in your comic strips. The frames at Chogger can also be
customized to suit your needs very easily.
7) Pikistrips
This is one of the more creative sites.
At Pikistrips, you take a photo of yourself or other people and then
turn these photos into comic strips. Just upload the pictures and then
you can mess around with them and decorate the pictures. You can add
different hairstyle, facial hair, scars, hats, and other stuff to your
pictures, and of course, text bubbles for dialogue.
8) Witty Comics
This is a simple comic that is most
often used by people who are more interested in the dialogue than the
actual pictures. The comics are pre-drawn scenes that are fairly simple
and to the point, it is up to you to put some interesting commentary in
there to spice them up. This is perfect for writers that want to
practice their dialogue and story telling – letting the words speak more
than the images.
9) Artisan Cam
Artisan Cam is a very interest site that
has a lot of different art-related online activities, and it’s a great
site for teachers to use in order to get creative with their students.
The comic maker on the site is excellent and allows you to build short
and sweet, six-frame comics with an easy-to-use drag and drop interface.
10) Write Comics
Write Comics is another simple to use
and fun online comic. The process is very logical and simple to follow –
first select a background, then choose characters, and then complete
the story with speech bubbles. It’s biggest shortcoming is that the only
way you can save your work is by copying it to your computer – it does
not have its own online database where you can save your work and share
it with friends instantaneously.
