Quite a few references to the “22 panels that always work” over the past couple of days. Looking them over, you know you’ve seen them.
WALLY WOOD’S 22 PANELS THAT ALWAYS WORK. A cheat sheet from the great comic book/strip artist, Wally Wood.
Story of how Larry Hama, one of Wood’s eight billion assistants over the decades, created the original. Via Mark Evanier.
I’d like to see someone do some pages just using these panels.
Did I mention I am taking a drawing class this fall, at the repeated urgings of my family? Not sure if they think I could be good at it or if they hope it will be less an obsession/less expensive than photography, but who knows. I drew a lot as a kid (spoiled paper, mostly) but have gotten more disciplined with the help of my kids and their repeated borrowings of the “Draw 50 _______” series of books.
