Your anniversary, drawn
Upload a photo of the two of you, tell us how it started, and get your story as a printed comic book
SEE IT FROM THE INSIDE
What an anniversary comic looks like
The gift they read straight through, twice, before they can say anything.
Twenty pages or more, and both of your faces are on every one of them. Real panels, real dialogue, your story — the day you met, the year you got through together, tonight — printed on premium paper and bound like a proper comic book. It ends up on the shelf, not in a drawer.
- Both of you, drawn in
- The story only the two of you know
- A real printed book
Free to start — read every page before you pay a thing.
How it works
Upload a photo
Add a photo of the person you're gifting (and anyone else in the story). We turn them into comic characters that actually look like them.
Choose a style and tell the story
Pick manga, anime, cartoon, 3D, superhero and more, then describe the story: a shared memory, an inside joke, a whole year together.
Read it, then order it in print
See your comic straight away online, edit anything you want, then download the PDF or order a printed copy delivered to their door.

Mindblowing Comics quality
Every couple has its own story. You narrate it, myComics takes care of the rest
Personalized comic books as an anniversary gift
An anniversary comic book turns a photo of the two of you into a printed comic that retells your relationship as a graphic novel. On myComics you upload one clear photo of each of you, choose an art style, and describe the moments you want in it — how you met, the trip, the move, the year just gone. The comic is readable online the same day, and printed A5 copies start at $9.90 with free worldwide shipping.
Why couples give comic books on their anniversary
By the fifth or tenth anniversary the usual categories are exhausted: jewellery, a weekend away, another framed photo. A comic is a different kind of object, because what is being given is the record of the relationship itself rather than a thing bought for it. Your partner opens it and finds the two of you drawn into scenes they lived — which is why it tends to get read aloud on the night and kept on the shelf afterwards.
What to put in an anniversary comic
Choose three or four scenes rather than a full timeline. The first meeting, the moment it became serious, the worst trip that turned into the best story, the flat you could not afford. Specific beats complete every time: one real argument about furniture reads better than a decade summarised. Write them as they happened and let the art carry the rest.
Does a comic fit a paper, first, or tenth anniversary?
A printed comic is literally paper, which makes it an unusually exact fit for a first anniversary. For the later milestones it works for the opposite reason: it is the only gift that can hold ten years of a shared story in one object. It also suits a dating anniversary, where the pressure is on thoughtfulness rather than spend.
FAQ
Anniversary comics — questions
Is a personalized comic a good anniversary gift?
It works because it is built from your own story rather than bought off a shelf — the two of you appear as the characters, and the printed edition becomes a keepsake.
Can both of us be in the comic?
Yes. Upload a photo of each person and both appear as characters throughout the story, not just on the cover.
What if I am not a writer?
You do not need to be. Describe what happened in plain words — the first message, the bad first date, the move — or pick a direction and refine from there.
How many photos do I need?
One clear photo of each person is enough. A well-lit shot where the face is fully visible works best.
How long does delivery take?
The comic is readable online within minutes. Printing takes 7–10 days from order confirmation, plus delivery time — both shown at checkout before you pay.
What does it cost?
Printed comics start from $9.90, A5 format, from 20 pages on premium paper, with free worldwide shipping. A digital copy is included with every order.
Can I see it before I pay?
Yes. Start free and create the whole comic before spending anything, so you know exactly what you are giving.
The anniversary is tomorrow — is it too late?
Not for the digital version. Share the comic as a link or PDF on the day and let the printed copy arrive afterwards; it extends the gift rather than spoiling it.
