Comics, Magazines and Graphic Novel

Comics are paper back book base on that one theme like spiderman, Batman, X-Men and Scooby Doo. There are lots of comic, some can be rare as they get older or people could collect them. Marvel is best named comic company that produces superheroes book?


Magazine are base in all kinds like Children mags, Teen mag, Fitness, Tattoo, Tv mag. They also included advertisement for different. Plus competitions as well. Other magazine like Take a break write about real life story from cheating, life changers and living in hell.


Comics and Mag have both in common is that their both paperback, plus they both include stories.


Graphic novel are hard back book with only written story without pictures or they

What I have is a Graphic novel called Visual storytelling the art and technique. It tell's about how comics are made and why, Like why the comic are written in different in different areas instead of straight down the page. In one part of he book theres two picture and a small writing telling about Scott McClourd, Reinventing Comics, Who made the point that the cover of the comic is only the package and that the inside is the product.

It has loads of pictures like Hand drawn, Computer Graphic and photos, where in each one they used speech bubbles and mind clouds So people can tell who talking or thinking.

Another thing they talk about is light and colours, which helps give Comics dramatic effects. They used to comics stripes both the same just one in colour, so you can see how much of a difference it look and more understandable, because with out colour you wouldn't be able to tell witch bit is dark or light, whereas in the colour one it does and it makes the comic look better.
