Answer and Explanation:

The unique ability of comics to double time through the use of panels is realized with the use of Captions.

These captions are used to show information that the characters cannot speak, as it would break the dialogue between them. Time passages are an example of this type of information. In this case, through the panels, the captions inform, as a type of narration, the passage of time, the time, among others.

The panels, however, represent a moment in time, which can be modified in the next panel, or not.
