OK. Good to know. Try to work on the relevance of argument next time.
The relevance is that if Alan Moore thinks its silly to go with the term "graphic novel" just because someone is ashamed of comics, then it's pretty darn silly and said person should get over themselves. I thought too that it was an appeal-to-authority fallacy based on semantics.
This is beside the point though, and you even misrepresent the quote. Moore said that he does not like the term because it's a marketing trick for companies: "...they’d stick six issues of whatever worthless piece of crap they happened to be publishing lately under a glossy cover and call it The She-Hulk Graphic Novel, you know?” Now, I'm sure Marvel comics quality lacks and they are somehow ashamed of their comics (I do not waste time on crap tbh), but I give little about Moore's personal opinion on semantics, especially when they are thematically irrelevant.
Moviebuffbrat and you failed on both levels, but you succeeded to waste my time.
