That's only true if they are really far apart, like top of the panel and bottom of the panel. Otherwise, you want to assume people will read the text just like they would a book (left to right AND top to bottom, not one direction dominating the other.)
As long as we're discussing this, the same considerations apply to what order to read the panels. Even pros often lay things out in a confusing way sometimes, because it's tricky to get right.

Wikipedia says:
--- Quote ---A letterer is a member of a team of comic book creators responsible for drawing the comic book's text. The letterer crafts the comic's "display lettering": the story title lettering and other special captions and credits that usually appear on a story's first page. The letterer also writes the letters in the word balloons and draws in sound effects. The letterer's use of typefaces, calligraphy, letter size, and layout all contribute to the impact of the comic. Many letterers also design logos for the comic book company's various titles.
