Effects of Graphic Novels

While reading the first half of Persepolis, my first graphic novel I have ever read, I have discovered something new. In normal novels you are only presented with words and you have to create the images of the characters, scenery, etc. in your head. In movies you only get the pictures and words and are unable to actually capture the thoughts of each and every character. This graphic novel allows for all of the above to happen. You get pictures, words, facial expressions, and thoughts all in one creating all kinds of stories. Although many people only think that graphic novels are for young kids who read spiderman or batman they can be proven wrong by reading Persepolis or any other graphic novels. The following article describes how graphic novels are one of the best sources of entertainment and bring the best of both worlds in one.
