Loading ...Ah, minifigs at the pool. This particular strip marks a slight change in the format for my multi-panel comics. I hadn’t really settled on a “preferred” dimension to do these in until I did a fair amount of research on the topic lately. What I came up with follows the Sunday comic strip standard.
The layout supports up to 4 square boxes across, though here I’ve made sets of 2 that are “2 boxes wide” — mainly because that’s what the story lended itself to. In days to come, when I vary from the 1 panel comics, you should see this width, though there may be one of several combinations of box widths. I can also add a 3rd row and still keep “the Sunday Standard” with a “third page layout” as opposed to this common “quarter page” layout.

Nice to see a variation, instead of the standard one-frame comics. Not that I don’t like the one-framers, it’s just nice to have a different format every once in a while.
