Wonderful. I’ve been looking for something like this for ages. I’ve just started getting interested in comic book and illustration, you see.

Hi Jay,
So glad you can use this information. Soon I’ll be posting information on “graphic novels.” Graphic novels are illustrated books that are written in a format similar to comics.
Be sure to find the post called “The Skinny on Picture Books.” It will give you a broader definition of graphic novels.
Best wishes,
Rita
