Do you reckon you've got what it takes to be a comic creator? If so, we've got some advice for you from the professionals - yep, that's right, the actual brains behind the brilliant things that happen at Beano!

In fact, Beano have teamed up with BBC Teach to bring you some awesome 'how to' videos that will show you how to create and draw comic characters, use words and language to bring your characters to life and also advice on ways to structure storylines so you can create epic adventures for your comic characters to go on!

Sounds awesome, right?

We've got some sneak peek clips of what to expect below but if you can't wait to get going, then head over to BBC Teach where you can start learning everything you need to give your comic career a kick-start!

Creating comic characters

Join 'Director of Mischief' Mike and comic artist Ed as they demonstrate how to create your own comic character.

With help from these two, you'll learn how to create your very own character from just about anything!

Constructing comic worlds

You'll learn how to create a map and name streets, shops and schools, with a suggestion of using real life as inspiration for the map, then exaggerating details in order to create a comic world!
