Abstract: | In this article, the authors examine three Canadian coming-of-age stories, written as graphic novels, and pay particular attention
to how the images and print text come together in the telling of the narrative. This approach reinforces the notion that form
and content cannot be separated in this medium. Drawing on examples from each of the graphic novels and the interviews with
the graphic novelists who wrote them, the article explores the complexity of the coming-of-age theme in each graphic novel,
as well as how print text and image converge to make meaning. |
