 +As noted in the [[public:nnels:comics:cbd_terminologytechniquescomics#meta-terminology|Meta-terminology section]], the story of a comic book is broken down into pages, which are further broken down into panels. It is important for the reader to be able to envision the layout of the page and the panels it contains, as this may give the reader a general idea about the time frame, the narrative flow of the page,  or simply an overview of the page. The way the artist has chosen to layout a the panels on a page is part of the storytelling process. The layout controls how someone reads a page, and is another layer we want to include in trying to reproduce an authentic comic book experience.
  
 At the start of every page we give a page description, which will always include the number and layout of the panels, and may include some general information about the setting or actions on the page. Essentially, the information that could be gleaned “at-a-glance”. At the start of every page we give a page description, which will always include the number and layout of the panels, and may include some general information about the setting or actions on the page.
