💡 Inspiration
I always wanted to make comics that can capture my chaotic imaginations - but the drawing, erasing, starting again is 👀 such a drag!
Also, AI didn't help much - create - frustrate - regenerate - repeat and yet couldn't get my vibe 🌈 ... 👀 even more drag!
Well that was until ✨ Gemini nano banana gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview!
I am so blown by its editing capabilities specially working with multi-image, multi-modal inputs that I couldn't allow my lazy self to procrastinate anymore !
So, here's (quick links)
✨ Multimodal capabilities I implemented
What I built
SONICS.ai 🪄 is a Google-AI ✨ powered creative suite 🧠 🎬 📚 🎞️ that transforms a user's simple idea into a fully-realized, multi-sensory, character-consistent comic book experience with podcast playbacks.It allows users to add their flavours/ vibes 🌈 to every aspect, of comic - from storyline to characters to scenes to dialogues to text styles
all in natural language.
The best part?
You dont need to be good at drawing! AI solves it for you.You can bring your creativity, imagination - your stories your style - to life without losing your patience with back-n-forth regeneration to get that perfect shot!
Create full-comics that match your vibe within ⚡minutes instead of months without lifting a pencil !!For lazy fellas 👀, you can hear your generated comics !

How I Used Google AI Studio
This app was entirely built on Google AI studio ⚡vibe-coded from scratch
👀 as you could have guessed by now for my lazy vibes !
I started with a simple idea prompt and kept on adding features by guiding the AI through pain-points I have faced when vibe-creating comics with my flavour.

Multimodal Features
The specific Multimodal functionalities 🚀 I built and why it enhances the user experience 👤 (UX)...
Composite scene panels 🎞️
✨imagengemini-2.5-flash-image-previewgemini-2.5-flash
🚀 The comic panels are created through an intelligent composition logic combining the multimodal capabilities of the models to create final panel images from the inputs - scene background, character images, scripts that were themsleves generated by using either of these.
👤 This ensures character consistency, dialogue accuracy as well as scene quality across comic scenes.
Flavour edits 🌈
✨gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview
🚀 It is used for enabling precise surgical edits of scenes, characters, dialogues, styles leveraging masking.
Users can simply explain their edits in natural language for feature changes (with / without masking).
👤 This helps users avoid regenerating back-and-forth images from scratch which was really frustrating when we need to make a small style/ error correction. And users can add their vibes/ flavours/ styles to the scene in natural language

Acknowledgement
Google AI studio ⚡ is phenomenal at vibe-coding. I was able to generate and finish a well-working prototype in less that 6 hrs.
But as you could have guessed 👀 Parkinson's law took most time !
gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview✨ (Gemini nano-banana) is the star of my whole idea. Due to nano banana, I was able to successfully create a consistent character comic experience, and solve the back-and-forth regeneration & vibe-check problem for vibe-comic enthusiasts.
imagen✨ helped me create beautiful backgrounds for the comic scenes which were then fully realised using composite logic.
gemini-2.5-flash✨ has been used for prompt engineering for inputs to other models, for auto-updating descriptions and also for optimising the deliverables.
Thank you!
It was a fun and great experience!

What Definitely Not a drag!
