What's an easy way to create dynamic action poses for comic figures step-by-step?

Creating dynamic action poses can be simplified by first drawing a 'line of action' – a single curved line that represents the overall flow or energy of the pose. Build your stick figure and then basic shapes around this line of action. Exaggerate the pose slightly beyond reality to convey motion. Use 'overlapping' forms (e.g., one arm in front of the torso) and 'foreshortening' (making limbs appear shorter when pointing towards the viewer) to add depth. Finally, add simple motion lines or speed lines to enhance the sense of movement.
