Regenerating images when something looks wrong

AI image generation isn't perfect — sometimes a face is off, a hand is mangled, the composition isn't quite right, or the character looks inconsistent with how they appeared on a different page. You can regenerate.


Tip: if the page is mostly good and you only need to fix specific spots, use the Fix Errors annotation tool instead — circle each issue directly on the page and tell the AI what to change. The first 2 fixes per page are free. See Fixing image errors with annotations.

The pricing rule:


  • Pages, panels, and covers cost the same 50 credits to regenerate as they did to create.
  • Characters, assets, and their avatars are free to dial in — the first 5 generations of each image (its initial image plus 4 regenerations) are free. After that, each regeneration costs 10 credits.
  • Series title images get 3 free generations (initial plus 2 regenerations), then 10 credits each.
  • World images are always free.


There's no hard limit — once you're past the free quota you can keep regenerating for 10 credits each until it looks right.


How to regenerate


In the issue editor:


  • Page: click the page-level regenerate action. Generates a fresh page image from the same synopsis and characters, with whatever changes you've made to dialogue or panel layout.
  • Single panel: click the panel, then the regenerate action. Generates a new image for that panel only — the rest of the page is unchanged.
  • Cover: open the cover and click regenerate. Optionally provide a new cover prompt.
  • Character or asset: open it and click regenerate. Free for the first 5 generations, then 10 credits each — the button shows the cost once you're past the free quota.
  • Title image: open the series title and click regenerate. Free for the first 3, then 10 credits each.


Tips for better regenerations


  • Be specific about what you want different. If the character's face is off, regenerate. If the lighting is wrong, mention "harsh overhead light" or "soft golden hour" in the panel description.
  • Edit the synopsis or panel description first. Regeneration uses the current text. Vague text → similar bad result.
  • Refresh character references. If a character looks inconsistent, regenerate their avatar first (free), then regenerate the page that referenced them — the page now picks up the cleaner avatar.
  • For composition issues, mention camera angle. "Low angle shot from below," "extreme close-up on her eyes," "wide establishing shot" — these direct the AI clearly.


When regenerations don't help


If a panel keeps coming out wrong even after several tries:


  • The synopsis or panel description might be too abstract — try concrete physical details.
  • The character description might be too vague for consistency — make it more specific.
  • The art style might be a poor fit — check choosing an art style.


Failed regeneration


Same as initial generation — if the regeneration fails (content moderation block, timeout, model error), you're refunded automatically and no credits are deducted.


Old versions


When you regenerate, the previous image is replaced. Earlier versions aren't kept in the editor for comparison. If you wanted to keep an earlier version, save the image first (right-click → save image) before regenerating.
