This task required us to pick a character, location and object and turn these into a short 3-panel story. I chose a clown, town and a puppy.  The idea of a puppy made me think about what would happen to such a cutie alone in a big city and the fact that a lot of animals getting abounded because many properties don't allow animals. I decided to make a story with a happy ending where a character finds abounded puppy around the corner of the shop and give it a new home. 
I liked the idea of starting with the middle panel, next moving onto the starting one and ending on the last one that finishes the story. Although it wasn't easy to make up a story and draw it in 5 minutes, it was a good exercise.
