A tiny hero has landed.
A personalized new-baby comic starring the new parents and the newest member of the crew. Their faces, the story of the big day, printed for the nursery shelf.
Personalized new baby comic book
A baby gift the parents will love
The parents have enough onesies. They do not have a comic book about the day everything changed: the dash to the hospital drawn as a car chase, the first night home as a superhero training montage, the baby as the tiny hero who landed in a rocket-shaped crib.
Made from the parents' photos (and the newborn's, if you have one), in a soft watercolor style that fits a nursery. It is a gift the parents will read to the child at three and hand to them at thirteen. Order the printed book with your welcome message inside the cover.
Digital comic in minutes. Printed book in about three weeks with free standard shipping, which is usually right when the parents surface for air. Faster delivery is available.

Story ideas
Steal one of these, or tell us yours.
The Arrival: two astronauts welcome a tiny hero who lands in a rocket-shaped crib.
The parents as a superhero duo who gain a sidekick, complete with a training montage of first nights.
The dash to the hospital retold as an action-movie car chase.
A letter to the baby as a comic: everyone who was waiting for them, drawn in.
What to put in it
Four things that make a new baby comic land.
- Use the baby's name on the cover as the title of issue number one.
- Cast the grandparents and siblings; the baby has a whole team waiting.
- Keep it watercolor or classic American: they read well as bedtime books.
- Write the dedication to the baby, not the parents. It will be read to them.
How it works
Three steps to their new baby comic.
Upload their photos
One or two clear shots per person. They become the characters and stay recognizable on every page.
Tell us the story
The arrival, the parents as heroes, or a welcome letter from the whole family. A sentence is enough; we write the script.
Preview free, then print
Read the first pages in minutes. Unlock the rest, redraw anything, and order it printed with a dedication.
Reviews
From people who gave one.
I cannot wait to give this to my husband! He's gonna be so excited to read it to our son at bedtime. Great quality! I love that he gave a preview before printing and shipping. He noticed that my son's hair was different and suggested we update it. He focused on all the little details and did an amazing job. 1000/10 recommend!!

Personalized new baby comic book: the questions people ask.
What is a unique gift for new parents?
A comic book about the arrival, starring them. It is the one baby gift that is also a keepsake for the child.
Can I make it before the baby is born?
Yes. Make the comic about the pregnancy and the waiting, and add the baby later with a photo, or leave the last page as the welcome.
Is it suitable as a baby shower gift?
Yes. Make it from the parents' photos and end on the nursery. Add the baby in a second comic once they arrive.
Can siblings be in it?
Yes. Big brothers and sisters as the welcoming committee is one of our favorite plots.
Prefer to have it made for you?
Our white-glove service on Etsy does the whole thing by hand: send the photos and the story, we write, illustrate and proof it with you before printing. Order on Etsy.
