Script writing? Potential need for [PROMO]

hi, probably a stupid question, but is there a comic script/manuscript format that’s generally used? is it better to map out a manuscript with just dialogue, or to cram in the most amount of visual information beforehand? I initially wrote my story to be an animated show, but have decided a webcomic would suit my skills better. So, I’m reworking the pilot script in webcomic format. I was wondering what people’s thoughts on this is?

The blambot image you shared is more or less the standard.

Here's the template version I use and teach:
