"Graphic Novel" is a term I really try to avoid as, except maybe for some of Will Eisner's stuff and Lynd Ward's woodcut novels, it seems to be mainly a bit of marketing speak.<br /><br />The amount of times people have said that they really liked a comic and followed it with: "But that's not a comic, its a graphic novel." Presumably because reading comics is below them, but I guess at least it gets them reading 'em. Grrr.<br /><br />*waves at Marcus*<br /><br />BenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-17018445395679702006-12-01T23:07:00.000-05:002006-12-01T23:07:00.000-05:00Marcus, nathalie

Ah well. I'm going to ask for royalties.<br /><br />Of course, I don't know what a Graphic Novel is. But I do think <i>Fate</i> is more of a ... hmm... illustrated novella? That's semantics, really. I don't know, but I just felt that it didn't sit awfully comfortably with the other books that firstsecond sent me at the same time, almost all of which I could look at and say 'Graphic novel in the widely accepted sense of comics', whereas yours I couldn't. <br /><br />Of course, that isn't the only definition of Graphic Novel by a long way (I've had too many arguments in the pub with my mate Ben to think that). But then, that's why I didn't say it wasn't a Graphic Novel at all ;)<br /><br />Best, <br /><br />MarcusAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752841194995687278.post-36266631152745384612006-11-29T13:59:00.000-05:002006-11-29T13:59:00.000-05:00Yes.

You can reach me at pounce@gmail.com and I would be glad to give you my address.<br /><br />I'm also going to give that review a look. Hey, any chance of a complete collection of Bacchus? I'd love to see that happen. Maybe an Absolute-style treatment would work for that.<br /><br />Anyways, glad to have you around the blogosphere. It's a much better place with you in it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
