2-084 Good things in life

Finally, something positive might be coming up 🙂

 

Story pacing

One of the things i find difficult is keeping the correct pace in this story. On the one hand I don’t want it moving too fast, and of course I don’t want to drag it. There are (Lego) comics out there whose authors drag every little thing for a complete episode. Whilst this might work for that particular comic, it probably wouldn’t work for this one. The first comic, in hindsight moved a little too fast. That was because I had no idea where I was going. This one, in my personal opinion, is moving slower, but at a descent pace (with only a few redundant episodes I believe). And talking about pace; take for example today’s last panel. I could’ve easily made a complete episode of that one panel, each panel displaying one of the text-balloons while zooming in on her face. That would’ve achieved some tension maybe. Tension that I feel is not necessary for fear of a letdown in the reveal of the next episode. The cliffhanger is enough this time. A reveal that might already been known to you as a regular reader of this comic 😉 . So… what good thing might have happened to her you think?
