This could have come with a manual but apart from that it is a great piece of software that once you get used to it allows you to create some really interesting comic book pages.
I have mainly been using my own images but the software allows you to either use their own templates for comic pages or allows you to cut up your own shapes to create some variety.
There are also some other useful tools such as various tones which you can add to your comic or some 'magic' shapes which you can paint on (such as flowers or stars).
It can be complicated at first and I downloaded a manual off the internet to help me get used to it, but I generally prefer to have a copy of a manual in my hands as it is easier to multi-task with it. So I would say that is its only flaw.
Also note this is the Debut version so you cannot export the files as PDFs without a separate program.

The manga phenomenon is growing worldwide, and Manga Studio Debut and EX (the premium version) are leading the way for artists and hobbyists to create ready to print, professional looking comics and print cartoons. This software will help you from start to finish.
This item, the debut version is for novice users like myself. It has a beginner's assistant, and dynamic help to get your started quickly. The EX version is for professional artists who want to publish comics, and contains all the bells and whistles they need.
I took a look at some older versions, and found that in 4.0 there are several improvements and upgrades. A new colour set lets you choose from literally millions of colours and sets. And you can easily switch for effects such as dodge and burn (should be familiar to Photoshop and GIMP users). You can also blend colours. It comes pre-loaded with over 160 built-in page templates, 2,300 screen tones, and over 80 customizable pattern brushes.
This update has so many pre-loaded templates and features, it will quickly let you design your prints, it offers advanced tools, but also everything a novice needs with step by step tutorials.
A really good buy, recommend the debut version for hobbyists who like manga.
But, the EX version is definitley needed if you want to go professional.

Once you've installed it you know you've bought something worth while. Manga studiois a fantastic way to create manga. it gives you loads of panels to choose from, with a simple drag onto the page. You can choose from pens, effects, backgrounds, colours,bubbles and much more. At first I had lower expections because I had been disappointed with anime debut 7 also by smith micro.bbut once I saw this, all my doubts were gone. It's amazingly easy to work most of this and has fantastic results. It would work well for any professional mangaka because of it's professional results. I recommend it to anyone, whether amateur or professional.
