Textual devices such as speech balloons, captions, and onomatopoeia can indicate dialogue, narration, sound effects, or other information.

Pafman is a Spanish comic character created by cartoonist Joaquín Cera in 1987, protagonist of the series of the same name. The main characters of the strip are Pafman, a bungling superhero and his sidekick Pafcat, an anthropomorphic cat and inventor. Both of them cause many disasters while fighting supervillains.
