So if you didn't know already, I'm a bit of a comic book nerd. I'm also into the new style of adapting classic stories into graphic novels. I think it's a great idea and can add so much more depth. I know some people protest it and say it detracts from the book, but I think it can add to the story, creating a visual effect along with the influence of words. On that note, I think adapting Paradise Lost into a graphic novel would actually be a really good idea. I know they're doing a movie of Paradise Lost but I don't think that would work very well. As far as an alternate medium goes, I think the graphic novel medium and not a live action film medium is the best choice for Paradise Lost. Here's why: A blog for students exploring the literature of John Milton and developing content about him and his works.
