Overview

This skill creates original knowledge and educational comics with configurable art styles, tones, layouts, and aspect ratios. It produces structured output: content analysis, storyboard, character sheets, generation prompts, page images, and a merged PDF for distribution. The tool enforces a stepwise workflow that guarantees visual consistency and reproducibility.

How this skill works

The skill analyzes source text to auto-select suitable art, tone, and layout or accepts explicit flags (--art, --tone, --layout, --aspect, --lang). It generates a detailed storyboard and character definitions, produces character reference art first, then generates each page using prompts that include the reference. Outputs are organized under comic/{topic-slug}/ with analysis, storyboard, prompts, images, and a final PDF.

When to use it

Create educational comics (tutorials, how-to guides, classroom materials)
Produce biography or historical comics with period-appropriate tone
Make sequential explainer comics for technical or scientific concepts
Generate Logicomix-style or ligne-claire biography comics
Convert articles or markdown sources into multi-page comics
Regenerate or update specific pages without redoing the whole project

Best practices

Complete first-time setup (EXTEND.md) before any other step; preferences and watermark settings are blocking
Generate and approve the character reference sheet first — every page must reference it for consistent visuals
Use presets (ohmsha, wuxia, shoujo) for specialized rules and visual metaphors
Edit prompt files before regenerating pages; always back up existing prompts and images when modifying
Choose compatible art+tone combinations from the compatibility matrix for best results
Enable review steps (outline/prompts) during confirmation when collaborating with clients or educators

Example use cases

Turn a programming tutorial into a step-by-step ohmsha-style comic for classroom handouts
Create a compact biography of a scientist in ligne-claire+neutral for museum panels
Produce a manga-style romanticized mentor story for youth outreach using shoujo preset
Make a wuxia-flavored historical vignette using ink-brush+action for cultural exhibitions
Update a single page after feedback using --regenerate N to preserve the rest of the comic

FAQ

First-time setup is required and blocking. Complete preferences and save EXTEND.md before analysis or style selection.

How do I ensure characters stay consistent across pages?

Generate characters/characters.png first and pass it with --ref to every page generation. If --ref is not supported, prepend character descriptions to every prompt file.

Can I regenerate only specific pages?

Yes. Use --regenerate N (or comma list) to regenerate chosen pages. Update prompt files first and back up existing images.
