Comics Educate: Strips Vs pages

^misskittyoooo:iconmisskittyoooo: reports, November 6, 2007


For comics education week, here's another educational article!
This article was originally posted in the Comics and Cartoons Mini Newsletter

First difference you can tell is by the name, a comic page, is simply that, a page from a comic [book]. Comic pages don't often stand alone as they are part of a larger sequence of pages contained in a book or published online.
Pages can be done in a variety of ways as single pages, 2 page spreads as well as in a variety of panel layouts. Pages are typically done on 11X17 sized paper and so would typically fit those dimensions as a computer file, though there are exceptions to every rule of course.
Examples of pages on Deviantart are:


In order to read some comic pages you typically need to actually buy comic books to read any commercially done work. You can however read some independent/ Alternative (Indy) comics online. A good place to find some is on Onlinecomics.net.

A strip is a strip of sequential images usually humorous (exceptions to every rule) and tell a complete story on their own and may or may not be part of a larger story. Such as Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley, where each strip contains a complete gag or joke, however if you read them weekly, you can see the story moves along as though part of a greater whole. Comic strips are 1 or more panels long, but generally not longer than half a page. On deviantART there are some much longer strips that can be identified as strips by the fact that they complete a gag at the end of the strip and are generally setup as a large strip (IE 1-2 panels per row).
Strips are the types of comics you would typically find in the newspapers in either the sunday funnies or as political cartoons.
Some examples of Strips are:

A great place to read a nice variety of comic strips is Comics.com. Some great titles included in there are Get Fuzzy, Pearls before Swine, Rudy Park, Peanuts, Rose is Rose as well as many many others.
