Create Your Own Custom Comic Book
If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable gift, a custom comic book is one of the most personal ways to tell a story.
At Make Me A Comic, we turn real memories, fictional adventures, and relationship milestones into fully illustrated, hand-drawn comic books. Whether you want to celebrate your love story, transform someone into a superhero, or create an original comic world from scratch, every book is created just for you.
This isn’t a template. It isn’t AI-generated. It’s a professionally written and illustrated comic book designed around your story.
What Is a Custom Comic Book?
A custom comic book is a multi-page, professionally structured comic created from your ideas.
It can be:
-
A personalised love story
-
A fictional superhero adventure
-
A fantasy or sci-fi epic
-
A meaningful life tribute
-
A fun, dramatic or emotional narrative
A custom comic book allows a story to unfold as the pages are turned. We develop characters. We build scenes. We shape the pacing. We create a beginning, middle and powerful ending.
It reads like a real comic book — because it is one.
Fully Personalised – From Story to Artwork
You don’t need to write a script. You don’t need to understand panels or pacing. You simply tell us your story in your own words.
From there we:
-
Develop the storyline
-
Structure the panels
-
Write the dialogue
-
Design characters with full likeness
-
Illustrate every page by hand
We recreate meaningful places, pets, personal details and inside jokes. The result is a personalised comic book that feels intimate, cinematic and completely unique.
A Gift That Feels Different
Most gifts are opened, admired, and eventually forgotten.
A custom comic book becomes something else entirely. It’s re-read. Displayed. Shared with friends. Passed down. It grows in sentimental value over time.
Popular reasons customers create a custom comic book include:
-
Milestone birthdays
-
Anniversaries
-
Marriage proposals
-
Retirement tributes
-
Relationship celebrations
-
Passion projects for comic fans
But ultimately, it’s about creating something meaningful — not just buying something.
Hand-Drawn. No AI. Real Artists.
Every custom comic book is illustrated by professional artists using traditional techniques.
We do not use AI.
We do not use pre-made templates.
That means your comic has depth, detail and personality that automated systems simply cannot replicate.
Each page is carefully crafted to feel authentic and professionally finished — like something you’d find on a comic store shelf.

Ready to Create Your Own Custom Comic Book?
Whether your story is romantic, heroic, funny or deeply sentimental, we’ll help you turn it into a professionally written and illustrated comic book that lasts a lifetime.
Your story deserves to be told properly.
And this time, it can be told in panels.
If you know how much you want to spend then place your order and we will request your story ideas. Don’t worry if you don’t have any ideas, we will have plenty for you.
If your budget is flexible, then perhaps place an order for 8 pages with 11 panels, let us know you are flexible and we will factor that in when brainstorming the story with you.
Some customers like to chat about the story first, so shoot us a message and let’s chat! We will advise you on how many pages and panels we think you need.
The minimum number of pages for a custom comic book is 8 and the total page number must be divisible by 4. So you can opt for 12, 16, 20, 24 pages and so forth. You can opt for any amount of panels there are no limits. So send us a message with your request.
We write the comic story but we work with you to create it. You might have some basic initial ideas or sometimes no ideas. Whichever it is we ask all the right questions to ensure we create a comic story that you love and which is highly personal to the recipient.
Alternatively you might know exactly what story you want and have the comic story ready - if you do we ask that you are open to us making some suggested edits.
Once we decide what the story is, we will ask you many questions to find out the smaller details, and we will also request photos. It’s a really fun and easy process, even the creatively challenged love it!
Your custom comic book is drawn by hand, digitally. We first create a rough draft which we share with you, this shows you how we plan to tell your story. We email this to you for feedback where you can request edits.
We then complete the custom comic book artwork and when complete we again send it to you for feedback. At this later stage it’s usually smaller edits like colors and text.
All people, places and specific objects are drawn from photos that you supply, so everything and everyone looks like they do in real life.
This varies from comic to comic, we will request all the photos we need, they will be of people, places and specific objects which are relevant to your comic story.
Yes you can, but there are some guidelines. When we send you the draft ANY edits can be requested, whole panels can be changed. It’s really easy to make edits at this stage.
Once we complete the artwork you can’t then change whole panels without incurring a fee - but because our process is so thorough this never happens. At this later stage it’s usually things like text, colors and likeness to people.
As long as you follow these guidelines then you can request any amount of edits until you are happy.
This depends on how long your comic is, for instance a 3 panel comic can be completed in 4-6 days, a 10 panel comic can be completed in 7-9 days. But this also depends on our work load, remember everything is created from scratch, by hand…there are no robots on our team.
But we do meet 99.9% of deadlines, if you need it quickly, message us and we will see what we can do. A rush fee may apply.
Absolutely anything! Our most popular story is how people met and got married, but we can literally draw anything. We have created many fictional superhero comics, fantasy comics, even Halloween comics.
Once complete we will give you a high resolution digital file of your custom comic book. We will print 3 hard copies for you and mail them to your home. Hold on to the digital file and you can print more copies if you need them.
Any local printer can print the artwork and we will help you find one. You must print the artwork at the size we create it at.
In all the years we have been in business no one has not liked their comic artwork. Our process is very thorough, we understand and communicate with our customers very well. Every single comic job requires some editing, this is normal, and we will edit it until you are happy. But remember we are comic artist professionals, you are in safe hands, we know what we are doing.
