Guided tour
From idea to an inkable page.
Every screen below is a real page of the kit, exactly as it displays on the tablet.
The journey
Six steps, nothing assumed known
The home page unfolds the six steps of the kit: idea, story, characters, storyboard, craft, finish, plus the layout library. Each step opens on its own contents page, explains every notion with a running example, and ends on a checkpoint. The Home icon always brings you back here.
Page layouts · 84 ready-to-draw pages
From the 9-panel grid to the genkō yōshi
42 layouts, each in two copies: 18 western comics grids, a professional genkō yōshi and 14 manga layouts numbered right to left, webtoon strips, splash page, double-page spread.
- Trim frame and safe margins on every layout
- Duplicate any page: the copy keeps its links
Storyboard · the name
16 linked storyboard sheets
One sheet per comic page: rough panels, balloons and camera, a dialogue margin, a left or right page marker. With the 48-page flatplan, the thumbnail sheets, the 4-koma and the webtoon flow, your whole book is thought at a glance.
Cast · the design
Turnaround, expressions, silhouette
Four lead characters with five linked pages each: profile, a 3-view turnaround with guide lines, a grid of twelve named expressions, dramatic drive, arc. Plus supporting characters, walk-ons, props & costumes.
Craft · the book that teaches
Balloons, transitions, lettering, perspective
The balloon family drawn type by type, the six panel transitions, six lettering rules, a sound-effects practice wall, six pre-drawn perspective grids and an EN-FR glossary with a Japanese lexicon. The reference stays one tap from your pages.
Production
From name to publication
Flatplan, page-by-page production tracker (name, pencils, inks, letters), session log, series bible, continuity log and a publishing checklist that covers exporting to Clip Studio, Procreate and webtoon platforms.

FAQ
The questions we get asked.
How do links work on reMarkable?
They open with a finger tap: the pen is for drawing and writing. That is standard reMarkable behavior (software 2.6 and later, every current tablet has it). No third-party app, no setting.
I own a reMarkable 2: which edition should I pick?
The Paper Pure edition. The reMarkable 2 shares the exact same screen (10.3″, 1872 × 1404 px, 226 PPI): the display is pixel-identical.
Is there a left-handed version?
Yes, and it is included: every purchase delivers two PDFs, the right-handed and the left-handed version (mirrored navigation bar, matching your tablet's handedness setting). Install the one that fits you.
Can I ink and color my comic on the reMarkable?
The reMarkable is a wonderful pre-production studio: script, flatplan, name, penciled pages. For final inks, tones and color, export your pages as PDF or PNG to Clip Studio, Procreate or your usual app. The kit includes a publishing and export checklist, and on Paper Pro color is for annotating your storyboard.
I make manga or webtoons, not western comics: is this for me?
Yes. The kit has three wings: western comics grids, manga pages that read right to left (professional genkō yōshi, name sheets, 4-koma, kishōtenketsu structure) and vertical webtoon strips. Use yours, or mix.
What is the difference between the Pure and Pro editions?
Each is sized exactly for its tablet. The Pure edition is high-contrast grayscale, tested on a non-backlit screen. The Pro edition adds subtle color accents (deep teal, terracotta) for its color screen, on the same layout.
How do I receive the files?
After the PayPal payment you are redirected to your download page and receive a confirmation e-mail with your link. The download is a ZIP containing both PDFs (right and left-handed). Remember to tap "Return to merchant" if PayPal offers it. Lost or expired link? Write to us with your PayPal receipt and we resend it.
What about the Paper Pro Move?
Not yet. Its elongated screen (close to 16:9) deserves a dedicated layout, not a simple resize. It is under consideration: tell us if you want it.
Does handwriting-to-text work?
No, and that is a reMarkable limitation, not the kit's: handwriting conversion does not apply to PDF annotations, whatever the PDF. Your notes stay as ink, exportable as an annotated PDF.
Can I change my mind after buying?
The kit is digital content delivered immediately: the withdrawal right ends when the download begins, with your consent (EU consumer law). A defective file or a failed download, however, can always be fixed: contact us with your PayPal receipt, we fix or resend your file at no cost.
