>Good paneling in comics


They aren't a exception right? Let's have thread about it.

They are definitely the exception.

I admit I haven't read an awful lot of either but from what I have seen the standard manga tends to be more creative with panels (or lack thereof) than a typical western comic.

I did read Watchmen recently and it's definitely one of the better examples in the medium, in paneling and everything else. Not exactly very creative or unusual with the layouts but still very effectively presented, which is more important.

Read some European comics if you want some interesting panelling.

Wonder Woman: Earth One did a lot of interesting stuff with paneling.

I would say Quitely is the current master of paneling.

Huh, literally a manga version of Heavy Metal.

Brandon Graham is pretty great.

Uhhh, no not really. The -standard- manga is pretty repatative with panels. There's like, four common sets they repeat using.

What YOU'RE using there is Berserk, which is the exception to the rule and is beyond both Sup Forums and Sup Forums.

It's fucking amazing as balls. Ballmazing.

I feel like almost everything in this thread is just goodlooking art with interesting backgrounds then good paneling. Or it’s inventive paneling.

Inventive doesn’t mean good.

Such a shame Ferreyra leaves GA along with Percy

I really like subtle and instantly understood stuff like this, or the way Aja puts panels inside other panels as a way of controlling the readers perception of time and space.

>you know the artist is bad with paneling when you are confused when reading a two page spread.
not this one though

yeah the paneling in american comics is shit. it lacks dynamics and simplifies the pace of reading.

Alrighty

This is cool idea but i don't like the execution at all
the poses and objects needed to make the face shape is weird and unnatural

this is actually pretty good but you know its rare

Usually I dislike Booth, but that first arc of Titans was alright.

Odd since his Flash with Vendetti looked consistently awful.

Posting fucking Moebius like he's an average Eurocomics guy is so retarded, like posting Muira as an average mangaka At least we can acknowledge that sturgeon's law applies to American comics, but this board has such a fucking boner for calling all non american comics god tier while posting the best ones that even American fans have likely read.

>Manga
No.
That's from Arzach by Jean "Moebius" Giraud. He's French and a great artist and a writer.

to be fair this paneling of berserk isnt so special. its actually average in manga

>sturgeon's law applies to American comics
Don't know about european comics, but it's applies to manga as well.

Muira does have a lot of amazing paneling especially in fights. His page was a terrible example agreed.

Left is from Arzach, right is from Dragon's Heaven.
I didn't meant that as "Eurocomics are superior" or something, just as an invitation to discover something they might not know.

Is this one dude punching at nothing or seven identical guys fighting each other? Seriously what is going on here? It looks like the guy's swinging wildly at an invisible opponent as he falls and every time he's going through a floor it's head-first.

I know who Moebius is--kinda obvious if I know what Heavy Metal is--but I didn't recognize the specific image so I dragged it into image search and it said it was Dragon's Heaven, a manga done in the same style.
