	Gotcha.  That would be graphic novels, then.  Comic books we called  
them back in the day.  Has anyone enjoyed the Maus books by Art  
Spiegelman?  Pretty unique works of art, imo.

	Also -- those Zacistrations are pretty horrible as works of art.

	Lastly -- I don't imagine Pynchon would be very likely to have his  
pages illuminated by anyone -- just a hunch.
