How Do You Design A Comic Book Cover?
The cover of a comic book is more than a pretty picture. On a standard cover the eye-catching graphic has to share space with several other business elements all in 72 square inches–which isn’t as big as it sounds. Whether you want to print up a collection of your webcomic for promotional reasons or sell printed issues for profit–there are things you need to keep in mind that will make your cover a cohesive work of art instead of a mishmash of parts that no one will want to look at–much less read. Your logo is maybe the most important item because it doesn’t change. Each issue may feature different art, but the title or logo-title combination should remain consistent. If you use an outside publisher, they will likely have their own logo that will need to be added, though it’s usually small in comparison to yours. Various other text will be splashed across your cover. In addition to the main title, each issue may have a subtitle or issue number to help readers keep track of the story
