A comic panel (or just a panel) is an individual drawing area delimited by a border.
Comic panels are often rectangular or square, bordered by a line of varying thickness, drawn freehand or with a ruler.
More rarely, it may have a more varied shape (round, star-shaped...), or even no visible border.
When multiple panels are present, they are often - though not always - separated by an amount of space called a gutter.
Many things can be drawn in these areas: characters, speech bubbles, text, symbols, etc...
When these zones are read in the right direction - top to bottom, left to right or the other way round - they form a story.
Numbers, directional arrows or other indications can be placed on these zones to help the reader read in the right direction.
