Your Weekend Moment of Psychic Nosebleed Zen: Fantastik Four
January 6th, 2007
Using her recently discovered abilities, Susan Storm pushes her powers to the limit by encasing the entire ship in a protective force field in this scene from the latest 1602 mini-series.
Sometimes I wonder if the psychic/super-power nosebleed is specified by the writer, or just something the artist added. In this case, I think we can safely assume it was directed by the writer as another character refers to the nosebleed a few panel later.
Scene from 1602: Fantastik Four, script by Peter David, pencils by Pascal Alixe

Actually it depends on whether Peter David(?) used full-script method or the Marvel Method. Assuming he didn’t use full script then the artist put in the nose bleed, as he draw an entire comic based on some rough layout decriptions or even just plot, and then the writer scripts dialogue and captions after that over the artists’ stuff.
Like most Stan Lee comics. If Jack Kirby drew a nosebleed, Stan Lee could have a comment on it without plotting it ahead of time.
