Comic Touch ($4.99)

From the makers of Comic Life comes Comic Touch, porting some of the best features of Comic Life to surprising effect for a mobile device. Just like Comic Life, you can easily add dialogue balloons to pictures, as well as captions and even some Core Image effects. Unlike Comic Life, you do this on a 3.5-inch screen. The application is so well designed that manipulating photos and text with this app feels completely natural. Kudos to the designers for creating an interface that uses the iPhone’s capabilities without adding clutter.

When you first launch Comic Life, you’re prompted for an image source. After selecting your photo from the Photo Library or Camera, you can then add dialogue balloons, captions and familiar Core Image effects like budge and squeeze. Once done, you can share the results with friends via e-mail, or save the image directly to your Photo Library.

Fans of Comic Life will be fans of Comic Touch, and this application may bring in new fans of Comic Life. If you like to manipulate photos of your friends and want to do so on the go, this is certainly the perfect solution.
