answer:you could just DL trial versions of each and see. I have used an old version of Comic Life and a recent demo version of Comic Life Magiq, both for Mac’s, and, unless they have updated regular Comic Life, Magiq has additional image editing features so that you can distort them, underexposure, overexposure, cut and paste parts, etc. like I said, though, you can DL trial versions and see for yourself.
