CBS has jumped on the bandwagon and is offering an “online graphic novel” for Ghost Whisperer.
They fall into the trap of trying to emulate the experience of reading a paper graphic novel, so you’ll have to move the page around to see the bottom of each page, which was annoying enough to keep me from reading past the first page. Well, that and the plot. But Jennifer Love-Hewitt fans may think differently.

Wow, that interface is bad in ways that I can’t even put words to.

There is a downloadable pdf of the file under “printable version” if you want to look at it all at once.
I think that it’s funny that a 6 page story qualifies as a “graphic novel”.
heh heh

Unless it contains an animated gif portion where JLH is all jiggly, I think the average online comic book fan isn’t going to be moved by this. :-p

That’s funny .I hit full page, and after that , it wasn’t any more a navigational gripe than any other website I frequent.
I thought it was well done.

I hit “full page” and it shrinks the entire page down into the window … making the text too small to read.
The printable version is probably the best bet.
