How to make a 8 panel comic

  1. Panels 1 and 2 · Beginning. Place, characters and the normal situation.
  2. Panels 3 to 5 · Middle. The problem grows: each panel makes it a bit harder.
  3. Panels 6 and 7 · Climax. The most tense moment; use the biggest panel.
  4. Panel 8 · Ending. How things end up and what the character learned.

With 8 panels there is room for a problem and its solution; alternate wide shots and close-ups so it doesn't look repetitive.
