Murder Leads to Graphic Novels

I was reading a fascinating book called Victorian Murderesses, packed with all sorts of social historical detail, when I checked to see if there were whole books on one of the murderesses.  I discovered a whole graphic novel about her.

I have never been interested in graphic novels, but I thought I'd just take a look.  Looking turned to liking.  In fact, I liked it so much that I began reading other graphic novels by Rick Geary.
