I'm not sure how beneficial these will be. It seems to me that if somebody can read a transcript online, they can just read the graphic novel online as well. The benefits of episode transcripts are 1) the episodes aren't always readily available on-line, 2) the episodes are long and difficult to search through, and 3) the episodes are audio/visual, and aren't otherwise available in a text-based format. None of those really applies to the graphic novels. That, and there's a fairly serious copyright concern with reproducing the text of a novel in its entirety that I'm not altogether comfortable with (and I'd be just as opposed to Heroes Wiki hosting episode transcripts for just that reason).

Transcripts of Graphic Novels

I'm not sure how beneficial these will be. It seems to me that if somebody can read a transcript online, they can just read the graphic novel online as well. The benefits of episode transcripts are 1) the episodes aren't always readily available on-line, 2) the episodes are long and difficult to search through, and 3) the episodes are audio/visual, and aren't otherwise available in a text-based format. None of those really applies to the graphic novels. That, and there's a fairly serious copyright concern with reproducing the text of a novel in its entirety that I'm not altogether comfortable with (and I'd be just as opposed to Heroes Wiki hosting episode transcripts for just that reason).

  • My reason for wanting them, is to have a searchable text-base. With nearly 50 GNS and growing, there ends up being alot of data in them, that isn't searchable, and it is easy to forget stuff.
