Abstract

This chapter examines the phenomenon of comics and graphic novels being adapted to other media, including film, as well as the movement to comics form from media forms. The affordances of the comics medium are examined. Descriptive in nature, the chapter features descriptions of particular titles and their adaptations that have been part of the author's reading and teaching practice. Additionally, the chapter draws upon an interview with an author/artist who engages in adaptation work before concluding with implications for educational practice.
