Passage 1 Graphic Novels

Graphic novels became popular in the 1980s. A graphic novel is a type of long novel that combines images and words like a comic book. However, while a comic book tells a story in multiple parts over time, a graphic novel tells the entire story in one book. Graphic novels also have serious themes and amazing artwork. Graphic novels are not necessarily original pieces of work. Popular comic strips are usually redone as graphic novels.
Will Eisner is considered to be one of the first graphic novelists in America. Today, he is known as "the father of the graphic novel." He published his first graphic novel in 1978. The paper quality of the graphic novel is also different from that of comics. After Eisner published his books, the demand for better types of comics increased.

Passage 2

Novels

Novels are fictional works that use words to tell stories. Novels may have a few illustrations, but only to support the text. Reading novels helps improve the imagination of readers because they recreate scenes in their minds as they read the text. Reading novels also helps readers learn new words. Novels are a great form of entertainment for readers.
Graphic novels, on the other hand, are novels that have words but also use images to tell the story. Readers enjoy graphic novels because colorful graphics accompany few words. People who do not enjoy reading dense text may find graphic novels more enjoyable.
Despite the differences, both these mediums of storytelling have continued to flourish.
