Actually I’m not sure. Usually a beat panel is the second to last with no action in it at all. But in this one both middle panels have an action (the car going by and then Calvin & Hobbs running) but the framing with action outside the window isolates us just the right amount to still feel like a beat is being taken between the action of the car disaster and moms realisation.I imagine if I was drawing this I’d have had the car and Calvin both go by in the second panel and the third just being mom thinking. But Watterson such a great artist he can create that feeling of a moment of stillness without it really being there.

Showerthoughts @lemmy.world I can't believe nobody in the LA protests hasn't already started a big sing along of "Do You Hear the People Sing?" Yet.
Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world How many languages can you say Please and Thank You in?
I was thinking the same thing. It’s the window frame I think, it’s like strip inside the strip.
