* It evolved after the 1954 publication of Frederic Wertham’s Seduction of the Innocent. * The book claimed that comics were a major cause of juvenile crime. * Wertham used New York City adolescents from troubled backgrounds with previous evidence of behavior disorders as his primary sample population. * Tainted and poisoned perceptions that Americans had of the comic book industry.

* Grouped all comic books into one category: crime comics. * No scientific study or method. * Interviewed criminals and asked them what they read. * Only noted those who cited comic books… * (Jaffe & Monnin, 2013)

* Although it is difficult to determine who coined the term “graphic novel,” most scholars credit Will Eisner and his 1978 publication of the first graphic novel, The Contract with God. * The purpose behind a graphic novel, according to Eisner and other artists, is to show that sequential images and words could work together to tell a literary- level story. (Jaffe & Monnin, 2013)

* “The world told is a different world to the world shown.” (Kress, 2003)
