Getting Started, any tips for Comic Writing?
Hi! I'm an amateur screenwriter based in California, and I had a story idea that I feel can be better represented through comic book media instead of my usual go-to, which is writing screenplays. I am terribly inexperienced with comic books in general and I'm making a point to get started on more popular titles that I've seen put into shows (i.e. Umbrella Academy, Invincible, Walking Dead, etc.) to expose me to the better comic book format. Browsing through some of the posts, I see a clear line is drawn between comic book writing and screenwriting as more separated (correct me if I'm wrong). With that being said, what lessons from screenwriting can I carry over if I want to try comic book writing and what are some skills as comic book writers I should begin learning now if I want to pursue this story idea I had in mind? Appreciate the feedback!
