Isn't there a genuine literary distinction?

(Anonymous) 2022-10-06 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Like a graphic novel is complete story, the same as a text-based novel, just using images to tell part of the story. And a comic book is one part of larger serialized story.

Sure, but that's a distinction that doesn't matter very much in most contexts. So it's still confusing if that's the definition that you're using and you insist on drawing a hard and fast line between the two things.

Originally, a comic book was a serial release and you could later get a collected edition. A graphic novel was a single, longer-form entire story. There was some overlap in that some comics (e.g. Watchmen) were published chapter by chapter but were intended and mostly read as a graphic novel, but you can say the same thing about Dickens' novels. However, the publication of Sandman and other similar works from Vertigo started to blur this line in the late 80s/early 90s, and since then the line has been very wobbly.
