Re: The inevitable push-back about these kinds of tips: keep in mind, it's literally my job to know, catch, and correct this stuff. You do whatever you want, but if your script is gonna end up in a mainstream book, chances are good it's gonna be changed to mainstream standards.

Comics writers, if you END a balloon with a ellipsis, and the idea continues into a 2nd balloon, it's standard practice amongst almost all mainstream publishers to BEGIN the 2nd balloon with an ellipsis. Same goes for double dashes. (I end up correcting a million of these.)

This is straight up some of the best Star Trek I've seen in any medium in about a quarter of a century.
It nails the characters' voices and motivations and back stories. It has a philosophical point to make.

And most of all it has something politically relevant to say. It draws blood.

Got a kid in your life in grade K-8 who likes to draw fish (sharks, tunas, billfish & swordfish)? There's a NOAA contest for that, deadline Jan 31, 2025. And check out the winners of NOAA's tuna #art contest (they're delightful!) in a downloadable calendar www.fisheries.noaa.gov/gallery/2025... 🦈🎨

From my experience of drawing sound effects by hand, I realised that you can easily make font-based sound effects more exciting as well—by exercising intentionality and control.

Here's some examples.

Hey #MeettheWebcomic!

I make a supernatural mystery webcomic about Blaze, a gay medium who binds himself to an evil spirit to solve his murder. (And this DEFINITELY won't be an issue for the priest he has a crush on... right?)

This remains one of the coolest things being done in comics spaces.

A wonderful resource put together with great care and consideration.
The Comics Devices Library is a free online educational resource that catalogues and describes all of the visual-literary devices used in comics. comicsdevices.com

I've been doing the research for this library since 2020. It launched to the public in October 2023.
More devices on the way!
