Here are a few tips for creating comics.
What I like to do is lay down the background for the panel first.
Don’t worry if the elements of the image extend beyond the canvas. Only the content within the canvas frame will be visible in the final output.
I would recommend creating all the background layers in a single layer group.

Using an old classical animation technique, you can find yourself saving time by creating character templates with expressionless faces/extremities.

Then, it’s all a matter of drawing in the appropriate expressions…
…and adding the text for each panel!

Save each of the panels of your comic as a separate Raven .egg. You’ll find all your panels saved in Your Creations page.
I like to assemble the comic in Phoenix. Begin with a canvas size large enough to fit your panels.
Then, import them all into the document by selecting File > Import File, then upload each of your panels through the Aviary Library tab.
Using the Move Tool, assemble the panels on your comic any way you like.
Then, you can add a title and author using the Text Tool in Phoenix.
And your comic is complete!
If you created the background in a single grouped layer, you can easily disable this group…
…and create infinite backgrounds using your comic template as well!
Let’s make some funnies!]]
