Ever since the 1940's, cartoonists and legendary comic-book artists such as Jim Steranko and Jack Kirby have been cutting and pasting, photocopying and making collages in their work. In the wrong hands, this technique can leave comic strips loooking repetitive and dull. However, with the advent of image-manipulation software, "found" images and stock poses can be used creatively in numerous different ways.

The Computer Cartoon Kit CD includes over 100 cartoon images of people, places and objects - with a selection of word balloons and blank comic-strip panels - that can be resized, manipulated and coloured quickly and easily to suit a multitude of purposes.

If you can't draw, and don't have time to learn, you'll soon be able to produce professional looking cartoons. If you can draw, this book will teach you how to use the computer to further enhance your work.

Whether you are producing comic strips for your own amusement, to add graphics to a website or to publish or share with friends, The Computer Cartoon Kit is an invaluable resource and a lot of fun.
