In this episode of Chax Chat, Chad and Dax explore the unique accessibility challenges created by panels, speech balloons, visual action, pacing, suspense, and complex reading order. They present a seven-step approach for preserving the experience, including understanding the story, establishing reading order, identifying visual hierarchy, determining information dependencies, describing rather than interpreting, prioritizing meaningful details, and testing the final reader experience. The result is an accessibility strategy that treats a graphic novel as a story to be experienced, not simply a collection of images requiring alternate text. Every other week, we unravel accessibility to help you create documents that are more inclusive, compliant, and practical for real users.
