Graphic Novels vs. Comic Books

[rachelle_banks]

Thank you! Very concise and helpful! My brother has been writing a story and I think it would make a great graphic novel for teens/adults.

ahh this is what I has been searching for. Straight to the point instead of repeating same things without really explaining it at all. This is great video and what people should watch to know the difference between graphic novel and comic books.

Comic books are like manga. They have chapter/episode that come weekly or monthly until the story finish and reach it end or it got cancel/axed(at least for manga if the series failed to maintain popularity since the industry are harsh and competitive) while graphic novel is a complete story in one book. The use of television show and movie is a great analogy and fit very well in this context.

So clearly explain straight to the point and amazingly simplified way.
you can be a good teacher for children as children have short span memory which many tend to teach in long boring repetitive way. Only one advice when targeting children try to be a little slow because you speak quite fast but it’s ok for me just for the young ones anyway I wish all the best and I like your graphic fat book my kids would would probably read if they were younger.
Well done

This was very helpful and to the point. I'm working on a complete story and episodes won't work with the time line. Movie vs TV Show was a perfect reference. Thanks.

Graphic novel=movie
Comic book=episode

What's the difference between graphic novels and trade paperback comic's?

[christianalexander]

Comic books are slim like magazines graphic novels are thicker and some are trades or hardcovers
