Black Friday gift ideas
This Black Friday, give a gift no store can sell
There is still time: a gift link arrives the moment you send it.
Black Friday is when the gift list gets written. This year, put one thing on it that no store has in stock: a comic about someone you love, made by you and sent as a private link. Start now and it is ready long before the holidays.
Signing up is free, and so is making gift links.
Gift ideas better than another gadget
Six gifts you will not find in any Black Friday deal, each one only a few pages long.
-
The inside joke, finally drawn
The wrong train, the ruined cake, the nickname nobody else understands. Three pages and the joke you two still laugh about lasts forever.
-
A comic for your partner
How you met, told from both sides. Or the first apartment, the thermostat wars, the trip that went sideways and became the best story you have.
-
For a long-distance friend
Draw the two of you in the same city again. A link crosses any border in a second, with no shipping costs and no customs forms.
-
Their pet as the hero
The cat who runs the house, the dog who thinks he guards it. A short adventure starring the animal they talk about most.
-
For the person who has everything
They do not need another thing. They have probably never had a story drawn about them.
-
Your list, sorted early
Plan one short comic per person over the long weekend, draw a page or two each evening, and be done before December.
Black Friday, without the doorbusters
The deals are on things anyone could buy, in any color, which is exactly why most of them are forgotten by February.
A comic is the opposite. It is about one person, nobody else can buy it, and the main ingredient is a memory you already have. Make it over a few evenings, then send it whenever the day comes.
From Black Friday to the big day
Start this weekend, and the gift is ready long before the holidays.

Sketch the story over the long weekend: upload pages you drew, or make them with AI in the studio.

Make the link when you are ready
A gift link works for 7, 30 or 90 days from the day you make it, so make it close to the day you give it.

Send it on the day
Nothing to wrap and nothing to ship. Paste the link into a message or a card, with a note they read before the first page.

Questions people ask
How fast does a gift comic arrive?
The moment you send it. A gift link works as soon as you make it, so there are no shipping cutoffs and no delivery windows. If you draw with AI, a page usually takes a minute or two.
If I start on Black Friday, will the link still work for the holidays?
Make the comic now and the link later. A gift link works for 7, 30 or 90 days from the day you make it, so make it the week you give the gift. Pages you add after sending it show up in it too.
What does a gift comic cost?
Making gift links is free, and so is uploading pages you drew. If you make the pages with AI, you pay in credits, and the price shows before each page is drawn. There is nothing to ship.
Can I make gifts for several people on my list?
Yes. Make a comic for each of them, or several links to the same one, one per person. Each link shows how many times it has been opened, so you know whose gift has been read.
Does a friend abroad need to sign up to read it?
No. They tap the link and read the comic in their browser, on a phone or a computer, wherever they live. There is no account to make and no app to install.
