Graphic novels seems to be getting some press lately, This One, from TCPalm.com says although graphic novels, which rose to popularity in the 1980s, share a basic element with comic books — a sequence of illustrated picture frames with text bubbles — these animated novels come in a variety of sizes, usually are printed on higher-quality paper, often are bound in hard covers and encompass the variety of genres mentioned above.
