Objective
Create a comics page in a second.
Preface
I am not a comic expert, I am studying techniques with AI, and this is a TEST I did last night.
Environment
For this test I will use:
Stable Diffusion with Automatic1111 (https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui)
To install follow my article: https://civitai.com/articles/3725/stable-diffusion-with-automatic-a1111-how-to-install-and-run-on-your-computerControlNet plug-in (To install follow my article :https://civitai.com/articles/4064/stable-diffusion-installation-and-testing-of-the-controlnet-plug-in-for-image-enhancement )
Regional Prompter (https://github.com/hako-mikan/sd-webui-regional-prompter.git)
Krita (Image Editor : https://krita.org/it/ )
Checkpoint
I will use a checkpoint for generating nice graphics
Aniverse (https://civitai.com/models/107842/aniverse)
Create an example page
After installing Krita.
Run and create a new document with size 512x768
Wih the rectangle tool add some rectangles to generate a comics page.
When you finish save the image in png format (Menu file >> Save )
Attached to this article there is the file MyPage.zip that contains my png .
Generating the comics
Go to stable diffusion

I am using couple of loras that I like:
Add more detail (to improve the details of the picture : https://civitai.com/models/82098?modelVersionId=87153)
People counter slider (to increase the number of people : https://civitai.com/models/114104?modelVersionId=123309)
Other
Steps: 25
Sampler: Euler a
CFG scale: 7
Seed: 725189896
Face restoration: GFPGAN
Size: 512x768 (I use Hires, also to increase the size)
ControlNet
I will add the image that I have generated.
The I enable the component and select SoftEdge.
Generate the image
After few try I got some images
These test were made with other prompts:
This one without details.
This is my finale Image with "Add detail " lora and people.
Check my post for the "Celtic Creation content" : https://civitai.com/images/7470797
Regional prompter
Now let's improve the image using regional prompter
Regional prompter permits to give information for each part of the image.
Check out my article about this: https://civitai.com/articles/3959/stable-diffusion-testing-the-regional-prompter-plug-in-using-break
In this case we will use Columns and lines to cover our comics page.
I set the active flag to on, the I select columcs.
I set the size to 512x768
For the divider radio I use 1,1,1 ; 1,1,1 ; 1 => The ; separate the lines, the , (commas) separate the columns.
some example to give you the idea of how it works.
Now let change the prompt accordingly.

Check also with other checkpoints to see the results:
Checkpoint: Meinamix
Sometimes the result is not as good as expected, in this case there is no beer in the images
Checkpoint : Real Cartoon 3d
Last test
Checkpoint : Camellia Mix.
For the title of this article I created an image 800x400
and generated the comics
I hope you enjoy this article.
