(A tener en cuenta antes de crear el boceto:
- Historia: es como el guion de una película, ¿qué ocurre? ¿cuáles son la introducción, el nudo y desenlace? ¿necesitaré 6 viñetas o más?
- Protagonista/s: diseño de un personaje protagonista que será el/la superhéroe/superheroína, ¿hay un antagonista? ¿hay más personajes secundarios? ¿serán humanos, animales, monstruos, objetos...?
- Escenografía: ¿en qué lugar ocurren los hechos? ¿es un paisaje natural o artificial?
- Planos y angulaciones: para crear dinamismo en cada viñeta, como si fueran fotos.
- Viñetas: ¿todas iguales? ¿se superpondrán? ¿horizontales, verticales o una mezcla?
- Textos: ¿se entiende con el dibujo o necesito agregar bocadillos o explicaciones? ¿hay onomatopeyas?
- Gestos, líneas de movimiento, detalles...: ¿los personajes reflejan lo que sienten a través de sus gestos y movimientos? ¿necesito agregar líneas de expresión o movimiento?)
