The following is my opnion on the graphic novels I read.
Page 1: From what I can tell this graphic novel is a spinoff of ‘World War One’, only the humans are rat that have a human figure. The characters visible on this page, are; Ilzecki, Level and Mr Spiehlman. The kind of language used in the text includes, informal writing.
The page is shaped according to what is happening in the story, the boxes are in no particular shape. From a visual perspective the text and some images on the screen are hard to read sometimes.
The page reads left to right and top to bottom. Yes, the words on the page add to the visual impact because the writing looks like it was written in their time the early 1900's. I would definitely be interested in reading this graphic novel because it looks deep and promising of what could be a worth while novel to read, even a series. This graphic novel makes me look forward to reading the other graphic novel.
Page 2: From what I can tell this graphic novel is about what is happening during the Islamic Revolution in the 1980's. Characters visible on the screen are what look like a young woman and her mother. The language used in the text, is formal and non-coloured text.
There are eight boxes visible on the screen and there are four that are the same and three others that are the same and one big one. The page reads top to bottom left to right. From a visual perspective the page is somewhat pleasing to the eye because there is no colour, but for this kind of Graphic Novel, it is good because the author wants the readers to pay attention to what is happening in the story.
Yes, the words add to the visual impact on the page especially since there is no colour to distract from it. Yes, the graphic novel lacks action and entertainment, but makes up for it in the back ground of the story.
Page 3: From what I can tell, this graphic novel is about ‘Watchmen’ and is written as an adult superhero story. Characters visible on the page are two men, one is an investigator and the other a man who runs a store.
The type of language used in the text are; yellow in the text boxes and the text seems to be informal. There are seven boxes and one is different than the rest. The page reads left to right and top to bottom. From a visual perspective, what I am seeing is pleasing to the eye. The pages are rich in colour and detail. Not difficult to follow at all.
The words on the page add to visual impact on the page, because it gives you that old-comic book feeling when you first look at it. Yes, from what I can see the Graphic Novel looks like one I would be interested in reading because it is profound and it’s reality matches the world in many ways.
Page 4: From what I can tell graphic novel about 300 the book written based on the events of the 300 Spartans. King leonides and some of his men in the background are characters that are visible on the screen. Language used in the text are formal is some and informal in the other boxes.
There are nine boxes in total and they are squares and rectangular shaped boxes. The page reads top to bottom and left to right. From what I can see from a visual perspective, the page is pleasing to the eye and rich in colour, is also easy to follow.
The words add to the visual impact they are hidden but at the same time they are easy to see. This graphic novel looks like one I would definetly be interested in reading because it looks it has lots of action.
Page 5: From what I can tell, this graphic novel is about astro boy, a graphic novel about a robot boy. Characters visible on the screen are astro boy and some elder men. The language used in the text is in black and white is informal.
In total, there are five boxes they all have a different shape, horizontally and vertically. The page reads top to bottom and left to right. From what I can see the page is somewhat pleasing to the eye. It is relativity easy to follow.
The words on the page definetly adds to the visual impact because of how similar it is to 1980's and 1990's comic books look. The graphic novel is one I would be interested in reading because it brings a feeling of nostalgia from the first glance.
