This past weekend at the Lakes International Comic Art Festival, we demoed Comixit! for the very first time!
Chris and Michael brave the elements to bring Comixit! to the Lake District!
And we couldn’t be happier with the incredible feedback from kids and parents alike!
The Comixit! tent was busy with kids and parents checking out the app
If you stopped by our tent to try Comixit! - thank you so much for your time, creativity and ideas. You’re helping us build the best ever comics app for kids!
“This is such a good idea for my son. He won’t read anything other than comics and this would be perfect for getting him to keep reading.”
Kids were very focused on reading, often staying for 30+ minutes to read!
And the Creator Challenges were a huge hit: many Grumpy Cows were brought to life!
“This is amazing! I check the app store every weekend for an app that lets me read and make comics!”
🚀 Start Reading and creating today!
Haven’t signed up for the app yet - or worse, misplaced our beautiful brochure?? Have no fear: for THIS WEEK ONLY you can still use the code LAKES25 to access the Comixit Beta! We’ll be dropping new comics and creator challenges every week - starting with fan-favourite Chrono-Cat, which you can read in FULL today!
But move fast: we will be ending access to the beta at the end of the weekend.
Send in your creations!
If your child (or you!) have created a particularly grumpy cow, especially gassy koala bat or pretty much petrified piranha - take a photo and email it to us at [email protected]! We’ll feature them in the app so you can show off your wonderful creations to friends and family. Include name, age and town so you can get bragging rights for life!
Dropping shortly: Grumpy Cow Remixed - turn that frown upside down by putting Grumpy Cow on a skateboard!
An extremely Grumpy Cow

We’re planning more appearances at events, fairs, and festivals! Stay up to date with our latest movements by following us on Instagram.
We’re building an inclusive community of parents, teachers, and creators who believe in the power of comics to address the literacy crisis - together we can grow Comixit! into something that changes the game for young people.
👉 Know someone who’d love this mission? Please forward this email or share our website (www.comixit.app) with them so they can join our list. And if this really resonates with you please reach out at [email protected] - we are looking for partners!
Let’s turn screen time into story time — and help kids everywhere fall back in love with reading.
With big respect:
Team Comixit!
