What is Comic Book Writing?

The comic book is a unique storytelling medium – a visual narrative built on sequential images, where words (dialogue, captions) are just as crucial as the artwork. As a comic book writer, you'll be a key architect, blending the roles of screenwriter and director. You'll guide both the artist and letterer (the person who adds the dialogue balloons) ensuring a cohesive and visually engaging story. You'll also be responsible for the logical structure and aesthetic appeal of your comic script.
