Halftone Print Effect Template

This isn’t just a halftone — this is pure comic book Americana, pixel by pixel. The dotted print photo effect captures the look of vintage pulp covers and mid-century commercial art, with all the imperfections that make it real: paper grain, ink bleed, and off-register texture. Set up for vertical and horizontal formats, the PSD is fully layered with Smart Objects, giving you control over grain, density, and hue. Whether you’re channeling retro manga covers, bootleg gig posters, or lo-fi editorial layouts, the effect does its job perfectly.
