We’ve Got A Crippen Cartoon!

Filed under: Misc

A few days ago, I was putting together some slides for a presentation to a group of businessmen on the benefits of accessible web design. Since I had no desire to bore my audience to death, I thought I’d do my usual trick of inserting a little humour via cartoons. However, the right cartoon is hard to find.

After much searching, I found the perfect cartoon and contacted the author to ask permission. One thing led to another and, to cut a long story short, Black Widow now has its very own cartoon thank to Dave Lupton

Text transcript

As well masquerading as the cartoonist “Crippen”, Dave was also the Chair of the National Union of Journalists Disabled Members Council for several years and has worked with many groups and organisations of disabled people in both an advisory and artistic capacity. His cartoons illustrate many of the frustrating situations that disabled people find themselves confronting on a daily basis and are best described as “humour dipped in a little acid”. :twisted:
