The study examines how narrative aspects change when a story is adapted from one medium to another, focusing on Octavia E. Butler's novel "Kindred" and the graphic novel "Kindred: A Graphic Novel Adaptation" by Damian Duffy and John Jennings. The analysis compares these works based on four aspects: plot, time, narrator, and theme. The results show both similarities and differences between the novel and the graphic novel. While most of the central events in the plot were retained during the adaptation, there are significant differences in the handling of time and narrator, likely due to the requirements of the new medium. The theme shows similar patterns, where differences can be attributed to both the medium and the storyline. Furthermore, the study discusses how these adaptations can be used in education. By analyzing both the novel and the graphic novel, teachers can help students understand how different media-specific narrative elements are used to convey the same story in different ways. This can also contribute to including visual literacy in education, which is important for students' reading skills in today's media landscape.
