A Powers study of Wally Wood’s “22 panels that always work”

Wally Wood’s “22 Panels That Always Work” was a rough guide by Wood to help artists during pages of heavy character dialogue. It has been a classic guide for artists both established and newbies in the industry. Unfortunately, the only copy available is copy of a copy floating around, parts of it barely legible. As I was studying this page again, I decided to do this homage to Wally’s Greatness. We all thank you, Wally, wherever you are.
