The answer

It is permissible to draw animate beings in their complete form for the purpose of producing purposeful comic stories, prioritizing the prevailing benefit, and some scholars consider it to be dislikable (makrooh tanzeehan).

As for introducing imaginative power into stories, there is no harm in it as long as it does not contradict the Islamic creed, such as claiming any of the characteristics of Lordship (Rububiyyah) or Divinity (Uluhiyyah) for the characters in the story.
