Comics Crash Course
Comic Building Blocks
Comics are much more than drawings. Like a bicycle, they have many parts working in harmony. You have seen these parts in comics before, but probably never knew their names. For instance, what do you call those little bubbles that contain the words characters say? Understanding the parts of your comics and how to make them work in harmony will lead to better stories. By the end of the day, you'll be constructing comics like a pro!
