It is a good idea to ask some questions about the characters to help 'set the scene' before the students start writing.

-What is the relationship between these people?

-How old are they?

-What are they wearing?

-What time of the day is it?

-Why is the woman sitting down?

-etc, etc

If you want the students to do more writing than just a few speech bubbles, you could always set them a full write up of the story for homework.
