Frequently asked questions
How does it work?
Upload a clear photo of the person who becomes the hero and answer a few fun questions about them: their job, hobbies, a catchphrase, a funny habit. We write three story ideas from your answers, you pick one, and we draw the cover and the first page so you can see it for free. If you like it, pick a printed format (softcover, hardcover or lay-flat hardcover) and order it, with the digital copy as an optional extra. We draw the rest of the comic right after you order, you check and approve every page, and then we print it.
When will my comic arrive?
We draw the rest of your comic right after you order, in about 15 to 25 minutes, and you read it online. Once you have approved every page, printing takes 3 to 10 working days, plus shipping to your country. Standard shipping is free; expedited shipping gets it to you sooner.
How big is the printed comic, and how many pages does it have?
Every format is A4 portrait (8.3 x 11.7 in) with 34 printed pages: a title page, a cast page or your own dedication, 26 full comic pages with 3 to 5 panels each, and The End. Pick a softcover with a laminated cover, a hardcover with a matte laminated cover, or a lay-flat hardcover whose pages open completely flat. The digital copy has the same comic pages.
Can I talk to a person if something goes wrong?
Of course. Email hello@personalizedcomicbook.com and a real person answers, whether a photo did not work or a parcel is taking its time.
Can I return or cancel my comic?
Every comic is made for the one person in it, so there is no right of return once we have started making it (our terms explain the details). You can cancel a print order for 2 hours after paying, on the Orders page. If a printed comic arrives faulty or damaged, send a photo to hello@personalizedcomicbook.com and we reprint it or refund you. If your comic is not drawn within a reasonable time, we make it again or refund your payment.
Can I use the comic commercially?
No. Your comic is made as a personal gift and for fun: to give, to laugh at and to keep on the shelf, not for resale or advertising. The story is fiction, so it is not a source of facts about anyone either.
