In the same way that graphic novels had to re-invent themselves from their sequential art forebears, so graphic content for a screen should re-invent itself. I've seen GNs turned into 1-frame-per-image formats that work. If devices can pan and such, they could even give the user the option of seeing the entire frame smaller, or zoom in and pan around.
