The medium of the graphic novel tells a story in a way that sets it apart from other forms of media. There is something that can be seen, that adds to the experience via the visual medium that just words cannot convey. The colors, the lines, the illustrations share experiences and feeling that pull at the reader in a way that words may not. We should look to the value that can be found in such approaches to telling stories and sharing experiences. What our eyes see in the pictures creates experiences that words may not.
