I got a graphic novel in the Humble Bundle last year. I haven't read it yet.

It won't work. Most are color. Most are set for a page size larger then a 6" eInk screen. Most are part of a series that's not book one. Overall, it's a disaster and unless someone can come up with good reasons why it would work, then it should just be eliminated from consideration.
Personally, I don't want to read books that I am forced to use my iPad to read. If I want to use my iPad, that should be by my choice. Last edited by JSWolf; 03-11-2013 at 01:56 PM. |

And if others want to use theirs, or their other tablet, or their PC or try it on their 6" eInk device that's their choice. If you don't like the category, don't vote for it.

What's with all the demands for retractions? Do we allow them? I'm against them myself. I don't see why you should be able to take back a nomination. If it's a dud it won't get any support; them's the breaks. And if it turns out to be popular, that's sufficient justification. |

And it doesn't have to be read on an iPad or ereader; one could also go to the library or such. As I said; its an experiment. I am going to research which graphic novels have been made that I would like to nominate. I found some links: http://listverse.com/2008/02/09/top-...raphic-novels/ http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2012...raphic-memoirs http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/.../graphic-novel Last edited by desertblues; 03-11-2013 at 03:51 PM. Reason: adding information and correcting grammar. |
