* PlayedForDrama in ''{{Webcomic/Alfie}}'' when it turns out Marco is not-quite illiterate but has definite difficulty with letters and numbers. Unfortunately, as a merchant's son, it's treated akin to his being mentally-retarded (that, and since Marco doesn't ''want'' to be a merchant), leading to their being on bad terms with each other.

* Jack [=McClure=] from the series of the same name by Eric Van Lustbader for the most part averts this. He ran away from home when he was a teenager due to the verbal abuse he went through from his father as a result of his disability, but despite the difficulties he has ready he has an excellent sense of space and a photographic memory, and he can (verbally) learn new languages very quickly.
