I feel bad about it, but at the same time I'm one of those that will use both sets of words because I work in a library and you can check out the graphic novels (as in, 'a collection of several comics relating to a single storyline, bound in book format') but not the comics (single issues). Comics have to stay in the building.

I mean. The words mean different things?

I think technically, books that are collected single issues are collections, not graphic novels; graphic novels are things that are originally conceived and published as a book-sized volume.

But also, when a lot of people say "graphic novels", what they actually mean is "comic books that are good". Which is silly, and also has nothing to do with the actual meaning of the term.

NAYRT
Exactly! People too often use this term to distance themselves from comics
