Marvel’s Comic Book Creator Is $&@#ing Brilliant

Marvel’s Create Your Own Comic service is designed for kids, but that shouldn’t stop you.

The free online app allows you to select between a slew of page layouts, then drag and drop your favourite (mini) Marvel heroes into each panel. Of course it can also add text, sound effects, objects — whatever you need to flesh out that 4-part series you’ve always wanted to see in which a prepubescent Wolverine struggles to uncover the roots of his inexplicably persistent five o’clock shadow.

But the best part is that the whole system is vector based, meaning that you can enlarge any element (like characters) as much as you’d like before exporting your comic to a fairly high res PDF (that’s free from watermarks or any other stuff that could sour the experience).

Though, I must admit, I fear to see what your minds come up with in the comments. Please keep in mind that none of these superheroes are of age. [Marvel via GeekDad]
