You are providing a very well-deserved boost to the reputation of a graphic novel, and, concomitantly, to other graphic novels. They are not just glorified "comic books" as some would characterize them. The research Bolger has done into Irish history and myth--as you point out--deserves scholarly examination--as you have provided. Many other graphic novels deserve a like treatment. Kudos to you and to Bolger.

I appreciate how you treat Hound as an adaptation, I feel like a lot of people treat mythic narratives as a set of facts in a wiki article rather than proper narratives, so the detailed comparisons are nice to see.
