A graphic novel typically tells a complete, self-contained story, often with a defined beginning, middle, and end, similar to a traditional novel. Comic books, on the other hand, often feature episodic stories or ongoing series with continuing plots across multiple issues. Graphic novels aim for a more substantial narrative arc.
