Everyday Trauma: Narrativizing The Self In Chris Ware’S Graphic Novels, Jacob Bibeault

Honors Program Theses and Projects

The term “graphic novel”—that is, a book-length narrative that employs the comics medium to tell its story—has entered into the vocabulary of comics enthusiasts and readers alike. But, despite the popularity of contemporary graphic novels, many graphic novelists began their careers writing underground comics that garnered little mainstream attention.
