What to make

Use Story Mode before you generate final art

The best AI comic results usually start with a clear page plan. Story Mode helps turn written material into visual structure so every panel has a job.

Novel chapters

Condense a chapter into the key moments that deserve panels, captions, and page turns.

Webtoon episodes

Plan scroll-friendly beats with room for reaction shots, cliffhangers, and dialogue pauses.

Pitch storyboards

Turn a rough synopsis into a readable visual plan for collaborators, clients, or production notes.

Character moments

Extract emotional beats so expressions, poses, and recurring cast details stay intentional.

Storyboard logic

How Story Mode thinks about a comic page

A comic is not just illustrated prose. It needs pacing, visual contrast, readable bubbles, and clear transitions between moments.

1

One clear beat per panel

Strong panels usually show one action, one reaction, or one reveal. Story Mode separates dense prose into visual moments.

2

Camera variety

Mix establishing shots, close-ups, over-the-shoulder views, and detail shots so the page does not feel flat.

3

Dialogue space

Shorter lines leave room for speech bubbles and make the final comic easier to letter and read.

Input examples

Start with the story material you already have

You do not need a finished screenplay. A clean scene premise, synopsis, or chapter summary is enough to draft a usable comic plan.

Short scene

A detective follows a glowing paper crane through a rainy night market and finds a hidden message.

Chapter summary

Two rivals train for the same tournament, discover a shared mentor, and must choose between revenge and teamwork.

Webtoon hook

A student wakes up with tomorrow's memories and uses them to stop a confession from becoming a disaster.

FAQ

Story Mode FAQ

What is Story Mode?+

Story Mode is a ComicsAI workflow that turns prose, outlines, or scene summaries into a comic storyboard with pages, panels, visual descriptions, dialogue, and captions.

How long should my story be?+

A short scene, chapter summary, or focused excerpt works best. If you paste a very long chapter, choose more pages or split the story into smaller scenes for cleaner pacing.

Does Story Mode generate the final comic images?+

Story Mode first creates an editable storyboard. After reviewing the panel plan, you can move into the comic editor and generate images from the prepared visual prompts.

Can I edit the AI storyboard?+

Yes. After the storyboard is created, you can adjust panel visuals, dialogue, and captions before continuing to image generation.

Which comic styles work with Story Mode?+

You can plan manga, webtoon, western comic, watercolor, cyberpunk, and noir directions. The chosen style guides the storyboard language and the prompts you carry into generation.

Does planning a storyboard use image credits?+

Story Mode is designed to help you plan before image generation. Final image creation happens after you move into the editor and choose which panels to generate.

Will Story Mode keep characters consistent?+

It helps by repeating character names, roles, costumes, and scene context in the storyboard. For stronger visual consistency, pair the plan with character references in the editor.

Can I use Story Mode in different languages?+

Yes. The Story Mode interface is localized, and you can write story material in the language that fits your comic workflow.
