chose to study the fandom of The Walking Dead. For the purpose of this paper, I will refer to The Walking Dead as a comic, a video game, and a TV series.

It appears like the author Satrapi uses a graphic novel style to add to the stories and supplement profound thoughts what words probably cannot express in novels: layers of visual intuitions. However, does the use of graphic novel help Satrapi propel her idea? In the comic book it seems like she really has propelled her idea. The graphic novel is a book

When we think of the word literature, we think of Shakespeare’s story or Harper Lee’s story and take the text too seriously.
