Awesome! Welcome~ A lot of people come to visual novels from comics!
One of the things I hear folks gushing about is being able to reuse assets instead of having to draw ever panel. There's a lot of effort/time saving methods you can employ in comics but the conventions in visual novels let you get away with a fair bit more since you can construct sprite expressions.
Honestly, I'm partial to comic and manga panel aesthetics in VNs. If you're just starting out and like the idea of bringing comic elements into VNs, you should check out Dead End Junction. It's a pretty basic example compared to what you might see in physical media comics, but it demonstrates just enough to show what's possible without setting the standard. Many visual novel engines, including RenPy and Naninovel, have the ability to use text bubbles. They can be a bit tedious to map, but worth it if you're about it!
