[NABS-L] Accessibility of Comic Books

[Stacie Leap]

Hello everybody.
I am currently an intern for a company and we were on the discussion of
comic books and its accessibility for blind people. I am not a fan of comic
books even when I had sight so I am not really knowledgeable about the
topic. Does anybody on this listserv read comic books? Is it accessible?
If you do not read comic books, is it because of it not being accessible?
What would or should accessible look like when it comes to comic books?

One of the projects of the company, 3S Tech and Talent, LLC., is a comic
book. The CEO is interested in making it accessible for those who are blind
but (a) do not know if there was already a means to make comic books
accessible and (b) if it is not, would blind people be interested in
reading comic books if it is accessible?

She is willing to go through her entire comic book and alt text the frames
but she does not want to do it if there is no interest.
The CEO of the company, Latoya Smith,is copied on this email if you wish to
contact her directly but her email is info at 3stechnologiesllc.com.
. Any feedback is appreciated.
*Thanks!*
