Reading Comics and Visual Literacy

Comics use both images AND words to tell a story. Panel: single frame. Dialogue balloon: speech of character. Caption box: narrator's voice. Gutter: space between panels. Sound effects: BANG, CRASH. Reading a comic: follow panels left to right, top to bottom. Visual literacy — understanding meaning from images — is as important as text literacy.
