Graphic NovelsThis is a featured page

Graphic novels and comics are more or less interchangeable terms. If we are to distinguish, we may say that a graphic novel is a lengthy comic with a novel-like storyline. While graphic novels are not necessarily a separate genre, their appeal is unique enough to merit a separate discussion.

Characteristics

Graphic novels do not have much in common with each other, except that they are primarily visual; that is, the story is told mostly with pictures, like a comic strip. Graphic novels can be fiction or non-fiction, on any subject.
