**** Of course, that doesn't answer the other part of the question. It might not hurt to upload the hi-res paintings at least and replace the screencaps in [[Isaac's paintings]]. Hopefully, they'll eventually do the whole series, because some of them have proven very tough to screencap well.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 12:58, 7 November 2006 (EST)

== Contextual Definition ==

We may need to better define the phrase "Graphic Novel" as it pertains to this context, cuz I'm confoozled. Can someone explain to me please why [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphic_novel Graphic Novel] is now being used to refer to a pdf file consisting of the equivalent of half a dozen comic book pages? What's been produced thus far for the NBC website, which is being called graphic novels plural, is barely enough to constitute a single graphic novel. Granted I'm just an old poot, but "DarkKnight Returns" was a graphic novel. Watchmen was a graphic novel. I don't know what it is that's being called graphic novels now, but there needs to be a new word for this cuz this is just silly. If I wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper, I couldn't call it the sports section. Y'know whut ah mean? -- [[User:ZachsMind|ZachsMind]] 18:27, 2 February 2007 (EST)

Revision as of 23:27, 2 February 2007

Both Links

  • Hardvice, good idea keeping the link to the interactive graphic novel while adding the PDF version. I didn't think that we'd need both but it makes more sense to have them. --Sidney 01:12, 25 October 2006 (EDT)
    • I mostly did it to make it easier for me to grab screenshots, but hey...--Hardvice 01:49, 25 October 2006 (EDT)
  • Question to the masses: Each Graphic Novel includes an "easter egg" to an image or web site... how do you want the information linked? I've included a reference to in the latest novel to the picture of Sylar in the school hallway... do we want it as a Link, or do you want the images uploaded to the Wiki and referenced internally? --Orne 11:59, 7 November 2006 (EST)
    • They're already linked in the sidebars, but we can also add them to the "External Links" section if you like.--Hardvice (talk) 12:32, 7 November 2006 (EST)
