Graphic novels are stories told from the perspective of art. Unlike comic books, graphic novels can be any genre such as fiction, non-fiction, history, or even fantasy and contain a complete narrative of the plot. This virtual display presents books and ebooks that the Walsh Library contains to explore the various graphic novels we have! If you are not into reading long paragraphs, come and enjoy a mix of beautiful artwork and complex characters to appease your mind. 

Through the various graphic novels available at the Walsh Library, we can explore different time periods and see how history changes. For example, in the graphic novel Bingo Love written by Tee Franklin we can see how the world became more accepting of the LGBTQ community and all of the progress that has been made in the last 60 years. In addition, we can read classics, like Shakepeare’s Macbeth in a fun and creative way. We hope you browse through out collection and find some enjoyable reads!
