Comic Format. Which one is the best?

[booklove]

So I notice there are 3 types of webcomic formats.
_ The webtoon manhwa: Which consists a whole chapter in 1 ep.
_ The tapas single page: Manga layout but each episode is only 1 page.
_ The strip: Mostly comedy, these format varies. Example is My Giant Nerdy Boyfriend.

I notice the strip style gains the least subscribers for some reasons. People tend to like continuation in story telling.

It wasn't all that long ago that the strip style ruled this joint.

.... I do vertical layout with eat one being the equivalent of about 3-4 pages of story.

I prefer regular comics pages for myself mainly because everything I do is intended for print first and foremost. But when I did a featured comic for webtoon I just spliced up my regular comic pages into a vertical format comic so I could keep it to print later.

I also do strips and it’s worth noting that certain things do better in different settings. Strips may not do as well on webtoon but there are more strips that have follower counts in the millions other places on the internet (like Instagram and Twitter) than there are long form stories on webtoons with subs in the millions.

I’m pretty sure the biggest comics right now are strips.

I prefer the one page format, when I'm reading comics.

This keeps me from feeling like I'm doing work sometimes by just reading to get to the bottom of an upload to find a good stopping point.

I believe manhwa one is just a subset of a "webtoon." I don't understand it. How are these people going to publish their work, on literal scrolls (huh, that's an idea)?
I prefer page format. Strips are too short and suited only for plotless comedies, and webtoons remind me too much of the cursed infinite scroll websites epidemic to like them. You shouldn't read comics from tiny smartphone screens anyway.

Well actually we way we have it set (cause we are doing that), I just move the completed panels to where I want on a page for the book. If there are panels that were just for the scrolling format, we delete them as we go if they don't add anything to print format. Also gives us a chance to fix any mistakes we made as we go.

Prefer the page format as well since it makes things easier when it's time to make physical copies.
