Description
This book analyses the way that changes in the comics industry, book trade and webcomics distribution have shaped the publication of long-form comics.
The US Graphic Novel pays particular attention to how the concept of the graphic novel developed through the twentieth century.
Art historians, journalists, and reviewers debated whether it was possible for a comic to be a novel debates that accelerated after the term 'graphic novel' was coined by the comics fan Richard Kyle in 1964.
This study underlines the proximity of the graphic novel to other media, showing that this cultural form is not only the meeting place between periodical comics and books, but that graphic novels are in dialogue with films, posters and computer screens.
