one of the really cool things about the Spider-Gwen run is the way it uses panels that that have pure white for backgrounds. it's such a great tool, cause they'll pick the most important piece of dialogue in an emotionally charged exchange, and then they draw attention to it. they make the back ground pure white and keep the character in color. then they color the speech bubbles for that panel, which gives the words even greater weight. like that's such a good use of form, because the team holds that card close to their chest and only uses it for the most impactful moments. it is, quite literally, highlighting the important bits. i love comics as a medium so much
