Graphic Novel Gallery Walk

Astro Boy

  1. The graphic novel is about a man using all of the technology at his disposal to build a robot that will be the most advanced piece of robotics to re-create a child with a immortal body.

  2. The characters that are visible on this page are Astro Boy, the robots creator, and the team of scientist that were related.

  3. The language on the page is more formal than other graphic novels.

  4. The page has five boxes, but they are not the shape shape

  5. The page reads from the top left to the bottom right

  6. The page is not that appealing to the eye because it is black and white. It is easy to follow and it is not offensive at all.

  7. The words on the page add to the visual impact of the of the page because it allows the reader to flow the story easier because he is explaining what he is going to do and why he wants to do it.

  8. I would not be interested in reading this book because the it does not seem like the story will be very in depth or that it will go much further than where it is on this page

The Watchmen

  1. This graphic novel seems to be about a man who is fed up with his city and will refuse to save it.

  2. There are only three characters visible on this page. They are a store owner hosing down the street, a man walking through the blood on the street and a man looking to jump off of a building.

  3. The text used on the page seems informal because the person is not talking to anyone and it seems darker than other novels because the person said that he would not help his city when the day came when they learned the errors of their ways.

  4. The page has 7 boxes and except for the last box, which takes up three spots, all the boxes are the same size. There are two rows of three boxes and one box on the bottom.

  5. The page reads like most books from North America. It reads from the top left to the bottom right.

  6. The pictures on the page are not visually appealing. The pictures on the page is not difficult to follow, but some might say that it is offensive because it starts with blood running down the street and ends with a man preparing to jump off of a building.

  7. The words on the page add to the effectiveness of the story because the pictures seem to be depressing and the text adds to that felling of sadness, anger and death.

  8. The graphic novel looks like on that I would be interested in reading because it looks like the story will be interesting and it looks like a book that is for older teens than for children, unlike Astro Boy.
