How’s Your Webcomic? #645

Rise and shine, folks. This squid is going to get at least one whole and decent thread to its name, so help me God.

Question: How thoughtful are you about your panels: the number, the shape, the size, etc?

I'm new to webcomics. I made character designs already and I have the main plot ready for the most part. But I don't know how to get started. I'm trying my hand at storyboarding but I can't come up with a way to start it. I feel like I really need strong first pages to get anyone interested enough to start/keep reading, but with world building and character introductions in the beginning it's already pretty boring.

eeeeEEEEEEEE there she is! It’s she! Thank you, Gus!!

I'm going to have a similar issue with my next comic - the beggining is way too linear. Maybe scramble things a bit or have the antagonists strike a move right at the start. That usually works for most stories.

Or make the character introductions really interesting, not just a name and a face.

Sounds like you know what to not do. That's great.

I love her.

>Maybe scramble things a bit or have the antagonists strike a move right at the start
My comic is about skateboarding so I'm not too sure if I can apply this idea here, but maybe I can try something else along these lines.
>Or make the character introductions really interesting
I wanna try this. Do you have any tips on how I can go about this, given that it's a more of a sol style comic?

Question for the group, how long does it typically take you to do a page?
