i have sideburns like logan
Not even movies do that.
It's because the people who wanted to make comics like movies don't seem to understand either medium that well
what happened to colossus? Why did he stop dating kitty?
I didn't read it because Marc Guggenheim is a bad writer but she left him at the altar
she's a bawd
Kitty became too old
Lol holy crap I forgot all about this game! And I owned it!

Examples?
NTA, comics prior to 2000, with some exceptions of course, like Buisicks Avengers which managed to be loaded with text, had 36 panels on every page and still managed to drag one mediocre ass story on for years
like bendis?
Bendis, the writer?
No, it’s its own special hell. It’s got every single 90’s color and font excess too- just with Iron Man. He’s a fricking eyesore every time he shows up. Continuity wonks love it, though, because it fixed some shit or whatever.
>Examples?
Basically everything up until the early 200's. OP's example is something that should only been 1 or 2 panels, but was made to take up the page with a bunch of pointless copying and pasting.
No, most movies have far better pacing. TV on the other hand now suffers a similar problem, but instead use camera tricks to make it look like more is happening than actually is. Subplots that don't add anything significant, mostly just characters standing around talking about something that doesn't matter at all to the main plot are commonly added so actors who get paid less are given more screen time, both to ensure more episodes are needed to resolve the overarching soap opera plot, and keep costs down.
I mean, Wolverine is like 5'3" and Colossus is 6'6". Both of their heights seem perfectly fine.
TV shows are also written like long movies now.
Yeah, that’s why TV now has prestige instead of being looked down upon as b-list shit where every episode is the same.
Yeah, I've seen that pic before. It's really, painfully true.
No, it "has prestige" because movie theaters are finally dying out, and most TV shows are starting to have the production value that rival movies.
Then go read old comics. There’s 90 years worth of material to comb through.
Never realized Logan was a midget. I knew he was short but not like this.
I'm really interested in the subject: what current comics have a full story's worth of content every issue?
The only one that comes to mind is The Goon, but it's recently ended it's latest run.
Copra
Supposedly Red Room
2014 Moon Knight comic
Batman Adventures
Top 10
These are the first that come to mind for me.
It works for that page because it's for a joke.
Ok then, this is a question for you and OP and everyone else. What happens if it was like this, would it still have worked? And if not, why not?
Remove panels 2 & 3.
Then rewrite it to be 1 panel.
Then make the plot about action, not breakfast.
The size and placement of panels subconsciously informs the reader how much time is going from one panel to the other. By putting Wolverine's two panels looking at Kitty and Piotr on one row, it makes it seem like he's looking at both of them faster. By having each panel take their own row, it tells you that he looks at one for a second and then looks at the other for a second. More panels on the same row will make it seem more rapid. I forget which book went over this but it had a couple good examples.
The joke is that he's processing it slowly and calmly, through scent and sight and gives a calm confirmation that he knows.
I'm just not into the whole beat panels thing. The humor comes off as childish,
Legitimately, Logan's like 4 feet tall in that image, light switches are never up too high and doorways are generally around 6 feet tall
Isn't he sitting?
Yes he is.
