I'd have expected the opposite, with all that empty space and one line per panel.<br /><br />I wonder who's to blame for this? The writer or the artist? I think it's the writer; I suspect most of those guys no longer care about writing panel descriptions and pointing out angles and perspective - they just write "Tony Start and two dues are standing in the middle of a rom" and just leave the design to the artist. And people being lazy, the artist will go for the laziest angle possible - medium shots and bland backgrounds. If the writer doesn't tell him WHAT to fill the background with, the artist is being paid to come up with it. He's not the one writing the story.<br /><br />That's my opinion - it's indeed an annoying trend and I think it's mainstream comics horrible.Miguel Rosahttp://comicswithoutfrontiers.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
