A blank comic book page with nine panels

Nine small panels make a fast story. Lots happens, one little bit at a time. It's the page for chases, races and anything that zooms.

A free printable blank comic book page template with nine panels, three across and three down, and a title line. Letter or A4, black on white. Free, nothing to sign up for, and nothing you draw ever leaves the paper.

Letter is the US and Canada size; A4 is the size nearly everywhere else. It prints on one page.

How to use it

  1. Print the page tall, at 100% size.
  2. Write the title and your name on the top line.
  3. Read it like a book: the top row left to right, then the next row down.
  4. Keep each drawing simple: one thing happening in each small box.

Peabody's tips

  • Stick figures are fine in small panels. Speed lines make them zoom.
  • Draw the same thing getting closer in three panels in a row, and it feels like it's coming at you.
  • Short words only: a small panel holds about five words.

Printing it right

Pick the button for your paper. In the print box, keep the size at 100% (sometimes called β€œActual size”), not β€œFit to page”, so the panels come out the size they were drawn. The page is black lines on white, so a black-and-white printer is all you need, and it uses very little ink. Every line sits at least 0.4 inches from the edge, inside the part of the page that home printers can reach.
