1. As a graphic novel, the text is able to use pictorial representation to advance the plot and character development, ultimately allowing for nuances that would otherwise be lost to the reader. Furthermore, the text itself is treated like pictures, as the author can bold and italicize text to add more nuance to the dialogue and highlight the words for the reader to focus on. (All parts)
