FLUX VERSION
Make your own comic book front page.
The LoRA adds better ’grittyness’, ’vintageness’ and ’pulpyness’ compared to base flux. Trained on 23 pulp style comic book covers from the 40s-50s.
This LoRA likes sci-fi stuff, so feel free to embrace the retro-futuristic aesthetics by using word like: Ray gun, Glass helmet, futuristic, rocket ship, science fiction etcetera If you're not getting the pulp aesthetics right, try prompting 1950s pulp art, pulp novel style, or similar.
’Small callout burst’ is great to use. You can also get more vintage feeling with ’creases’, ’used condition’, ’damaged corner’, ’stains’, but it can easily go overboard.
Happy to see you share your creations in the gallery below! Any buzz-tip goes straight to finetuning more Flux-LoRAs

Latest version is grittier, less pulp and more focused on ink. Inspired by the underground comics of the 50s - 70s and artists like Will Eisner, Robert Crumb and Rand Holmes.
Hopefully you'll notice a better text coherace and better variations on the titles.
Use a 2:3 aspect ratio and keep your prompts simple. To get better titles use this format:

Try different checkpoint models for more or less 'illustrated' look. Recommend PixelWave or PixelWaveTurbo for more illustrated look, and TurboVision for a more detailed and semi-realistic type of illustrations.
