Graphic novels may be an opportunity for booksellers, but not if they're marketed this way

24-7 PressRelease publishes an article about how graphic novels could be an "explosive opportunity" for booksellers. Unfortunately, they send their whole arguement here down in flames with the following:
Another disgraceful mainstream article that does little more than to mislead the public, and families.
Subject matter of the new genre runs the gamut from adult titles like Fun Home or Mom's Cancer to teen reads like American Born Chinese and Identity Crisis.Well well well, what a clever attempt at disguise - not! American Born Chinese may be a title suitable for teen/family, but Identity Crisis is only for the most perverted adults with a mind like a teenager. Putting a grisly book alongside one that's for the family and trying to pass it off as a teen book is dishonest and disgraceful.
Another disgraceful mainstream article that does little more than to mislead the public, and families.
