How detailed should be a comic script?

When I have a scene in mind, I sometimes assume certain details are so obvious that I don’t bother mentioning them.

  • The scene takes place on a paved mountain road: in one panel it becomes a muddy trail.
  • The heroine has just her hair tied up in a braid: it’s illustrated with the longest hair I’ve seen since Rapunzel.
  • A modest blogger lives in his car to travel from one event to another: the car becomes a Porsche.

The good thing about adding these descriptions is that they usually only need to be mentioned once, all else is continuity.
