SHAKE THINGS UP
Variety is key to comic
book storytelling. Vary panel
sizes, shapes, camera angles, use
of blacks, compositions and figure
size as much as possible within the
script’s parameters. Constantly step
back and review the layouts to
make sure there’s not a sameness
from page to page. Comic book
visuals should be dynamic and
change throughout the book to
reflect the story’s tone, atmosphere,
locations and action.
