    "Don't let your dreams... yea."
    That's some solid advice right there

    Technically you can do nothing but tell in a comic by covering everything in a single textbox, but that's called a novel. :/

    I get told this a lot by the more experienced writers in the writing workshop I attend once a month. I have gotten better

    i started working on my comic recently and i decided to introduce one of my main characters with a nightmare
    showing her fears and hints to her backstory without really explaining what any of it means
    this actually really worked out for me to learn how to use “show don’t tell” in a cool way!
    i have really strange nonsensical dreams in real life that i usually write down and tell to my friends since they can be pretty entertaining. i realized that they were so entertaining to my friends because they took strange turns out of no where and made little to no sense at all. but despite it not making sense my friends could sometimes imagine a story from it and theorize on what random details i never even thought about could mean
    it’s hard to explain in words but it’s like showing an audience something that doesn’t make sense but makes sense enough for them to guess what and why things are happening in the story

    I'm sorry, did you just tell me to DO THE THING? Do I look like Zhu Li to you? Like I always know what the thing is? XD Kidding, I already did the thing!
