Abstract

This article considers whether ‘comic contracts’, which incorporate aspects of visualisation, are legally valid under Anglo-Australian contract law. Comic contracting has been put forward as one method which can address issues associated with traditional text-based contracting, including contractor apathy and illiteracy. Use cases across a variety of commercial and other contexts are arising in Australia and around the world. The literature has to date focussed upon the advantages and disadvantages of this novel method, however the broader question of whether comic contracts are legally valid in light of their potential uncertainties has gone unanswered. This article ultimately makes the case for validity and suggests there is ample authority supporting the notion that a comic contract can satisfy the legal test of contractual certainty.
