Since I started my Oscar Wilde comics project last year, I've been working with the script format used by on Skullkickers ( on the Comic Book Script Archive). But yesterday, Jim tweeted that he'd switched to script format. I updated my comic scripting tutorial with 's classy script template and examples: — Jim Zub (@JimZub) I think I might make the switch-over too. Van Lente's format is good and clean, you can fit more information onto a single document page without it getting cluttered, and it even has the thumbs up from letterer extraordinaire. Fred Van Lente's excellent comics script format. It looks great, but it could be easier to use. The only problem is, I've already got my script template set up how I like it with Word's Multilevel Lists function. OK, I've probably lost most of you right there. Why should you care about Multilevel Lists? Because they save you time and they make formatting your script a breeze, that's why! (Don't worry, you won't need to learn how Multilevel Lists work to take advantage of them). A Multilevel List is a way of automatically numbering sections in a document. A comics script has many numbered pages, panels, and word balloons. Typing numbers is boring, and there’s always a chance you’ll make a mistake. ![]() ![]() ![]()
