Part 1. How to Write Midjourney Comic Book Prompts
Step 1. Prepare your comic book prompts and generate images in Midjourney.
Basic structure: Setting, characters, poses and actions, props and objects, specific comic book elements and styles.
For comic book styles, you can use some of the following descriptions:
- -Comic book cover art
- -Comic book page with multiple panels
- -Comic book, 6 panels
- -Comic book splash pages
- -Comic book strips
Prompt: A futuristic alien medical lab with many people. There is an enormous creature inside the tank that has tentacles and eyes on its body. Blue lighting illuminates everything in the scene. In the style of {artist} comic books.
You don't necessarily need to include all the components. For instance, if you start with "1970s dark fantasy, DnD art of…" Midjourney models already knew what color schemes would look like.
Step 2. Inspect the details and enhance the image.
Since we might want to print out the comic book or display the images on a large screen, it's important to make sure the image stays clean and clear in close examination.
The base resolution of Midjourney is around 1K. We can go with the subtle or creative upscale option in Midjourney, but it's topped at 2K only for in v6.
For batch upscaling to higher resolutions, it is better to use a standalone AI image upscaling and enhancing software – Aiarty Image Enhancer. Its AI models are trained with 6.78 million dataset, and are efficient to automatically infer and upscale image to 4K, 8K, 16K with details generated properly (and faithfully).
As you can see from above, the source image becomes blurry when zoomed in. After 1-click processing in Aiarty Image Enhancer, the lines and pixels are clearer and cleaner, with new details properly generated.
