how to make a comic strip

Making a comic strip is very easy and fun to do. Get a piece of paper and think about who or what your cartoon is going to be about. When you have figured that out, you may want to write that as the title of your cartoon. Perhaps your main character is going to be an animal.

google_ad_format = '250x250_as';

google_protectAndRun("render_ads.js::google_render_ad", google_handleError, google_render_ad);

2Draw a box with the props, setting, characters etc. of the story. If you want your characters to talk, draw a circle with a curved triangle pointing out of the circle, directed to the character that is talking. If you want them to be thinking, draw two or three little clouds coming from them with the last (top) cloud being large enough for what you are writing. An even better method is to write the text that will be in the thought bubble or speech box before drawing the box or bubble itself. This way, there is no way you can make the bubble too small.
3You may need to use more boxes called panels to tell your story/cartoon. Cartoons are usually funny, so try to make your cartoon have at least one joke.

edit Tips
You should have a good story.
You should start with an easy comic character, like a stickman.
You may want to make a sequel to your cartoon. If you make a cartoon, and plan to make a sequel, you may want to say 'To be continued' at the end of the comic strip.

When a character is speaking, you may want to write what they are saying (or thinking) before you draw the speech bubble or thought cloud.
If you want to make an animated cartoon, comic cartoons are a good storyboard.
Try reading and looking through your favorite comics. Pick out some of the things the writer does that you like and use them in your own comics.
