The dashboard tour

When you log in to comicink.ai, you land on the dashboard. Here's what's where.

The top bar

A single bar runs across the top of every dashboard page:

• ComicInk logo (left) — click it any time to return to the dashboard home.
• My Stores — your creator storefront, with a count of how many are live. (On a phone this moves into the avatar menu to save space.)
• Credits remaining — your current credit balance. Click it to buy more.
• Avatar menu (right) — your profile, plus Refer a Friend, Help, Billing, Settings, Print Orders, language, and Sign out.

The Shelf — your Comics and Videos

The main area is The Shelf, with two tabs:

• Comics — everything you've made as a comic.
• Videos — your Story Videos (if video is enabled for your account).

Under the tabs you'll find:

• Filter chips — All, Drafts, Live, Singles, Series, Recent. Singles are standalone one-off comics; Series are multi-issue. Filter the shelf to just what you want.
• Search — type to find a comic by title (⌘K / Ctrl-K focuses it).
• Grid / list toggle and Select (for bulk actions).

Each comic shows as a cover tile — click one to open it.

Creating something new

From the Shelf header:

• New Comic — start a comic. You'll pick a title, genre, art style, and language. See series and issues.
• New Video — start a Story Video.

On a phone these live under a compact + New menu on the Shelf toolbar.

Inside a comic

Opening a comic takes you into the flipbook editor:

• Each page renders as a flipbook page in the main preview.
• Tabs across the top switch between Issue, Characters, and Assets; a Turn into Video button sits on that same row.
• A tools rail runs down the left side. When expanded it lists every action — Generate All, Edit Script, Regenerate Cover, Translate, Export, Publish, and more — grouped into Issue and Page actions. Collapse it to a slim icon strip (click the toggle at the top) to give the preview more room; on a phone it stays collapsed and the expanded panel floats over the preview.
• A search box at the top of the expanded rail lets you type to find an action — including by what it does. For example, searching "upscale" or "high resolution" surfaces Export (print-quality upscaling lives there).

See generating pages for the full editing flow.

Characters, worlds, and assets

Reusable across a series:

• Characters — people in your story. The AI keeps them looking the same across pages.
• Worlds — settings and locations.
• Assets — props, vehicles, key objects.
