When people hear about comics in audiobook format, they are not in favor of the idea. Why so? That’s because comic books are heavily dependent on visuals. Unlike novels and story books, when we talk about comic books, we expect the characters to be illustrated on the strips. So, experiencing them in audio format can be a little hard to understand.
However, if done correctly, comics in audio format can be an absolute hit. This can be justified by the popularity of comics like Batman Unburied and Marvel’s Squirrel Girl The Unbeatable Radio Show.
Will comics in audio format be a hit? Possibly! Although it depends on the audience, some comics have received good responses from the listeners.
Is it going to be consistent? Only time will tell.
