single panel

Standalone comic image

A single panel is a standalone cartoon or comic contained in one frame, as opposed to a comic strip with multiple panels.

The format suits quick gags, editorial cartoons, and captioned illustrations: The New Yorker is famous for its single panel cartoons.

Single panel can also describe any lone rectangular unit in a larger system—a single panel of fence, a single panel door.
