The data analyzed in this project is compiled by the Graphic Narrative Corpus (GNC). The dataset includes metadata such as the book title, author, illustrator, genre, publication date, and language. I might investigate the genres present in graphic novels or investigate trends in graphic novels during a time period.
I am interested in exploring how graphic novels have evolved over time. I do not know very much about the history of graphic novels, thus I want to take a broad approach to exploring this dataset.
- What conclusions can be made about the gender ratio of authors of graphic novels?
- Why does one country have more graphic novel authors than others?
- What can be observed with the top 10 most popular books?
- Describe any pattern(s) observed in when graphic novels were published?
