Create Your Comic Books
Here you may select the desired type of binding for your calendars.
The ring binding, also called spiral or wire-O bond, is a classic and popular book binding method which is used for presentations in particular. With a metal wire, a twin spiral is formed, which runs through previously perforated sheets of paper. This is a cheap but also stable binding type. Depending on the book thickness or number of sheets, different spiral diameters are used. This enables the best possible turning over of your printed information.
Size is measured in inches (except for Banners).
Your artwork must be submitted in this size plus bleed. For more information please go to Bleed & Safe Area.
If your product includes folding, this is the size before folding.
Catalogs/Magazines and Calendars are not considered folded products. Their size refers to one page.
For catalogs and saddle stitched calendars, pages are available in multiples of 4 because sheets are folded over and bound in the middle, resulting in 4 pages per sheet.
For wire-o calendars, 13 or 14 pages are available.
One way or another, please always set up your print files as single pages and send them in multi-page PDFs.

Top Tips for Creating and Printing Custom Comic Books
How to Create Visually Stunning Comic Books
- Plan Your Layout: Ensure your comic flows seamlessly by designing clear panel layouts that guide the reader’s eye.
- Focus on Vibrant Colors: Use a mix of bold and subtle tones to bring your illustrations to life and make characters stand out.
- Choose the Right Typography: Select fonts that match your comic’s tone and style. Ensure text is legible and doesn't overcrowd the panels.
- Include Detailed Artwork: High-quality illustrations with sharp details and depth will make your comic book stand out.
- Utilize Negative Space: Balance detailed artwork with empty areas to prevent the pages from feeling overcrowded and overwhelming.
Best Practices for Storytelling and Content
- Craft a Compelling Storyline: Ensure your narrative is engaging, coherent, and flows smoothly from start to finish.
- Match Text to Artwork: Ensure your dialogue and narration complement the visuals, maintaining balance and avoiding overcrowding.
- Keep Your Audience in Mind: Tailor the content, language, and style to resonate with your target readers, whether they’re kids, adults, or collectors.
- Don’t Overload with Details: Leave room for the artwork to shine while keeping text concise and impactful.
Creating Inexpensive Comic Books Without Compromising Quality
- Choose Standard Sizes: Stick to standard comic book dimensions to save on custom cutting and reduce printing costs.
- Limit the Number of Pages: Focus on concise storytelling to create shorter comics that require fewer pages and reduce printing expenses.
- Order in Bulk: Larger print orders often result in lower costs per unit, making bulk printing a smart choice if you anticipate high demand.
- Print in Black and White: Black-and-white comics can be just as engaging as full-color versions and are significantly cheaper to produce.
