Infographic - the Greatest Books You've Never Read

I created an infographic designed to persuade people who see comics as a genre and not a medium for telling stories of any shape, size, or texture. My contention is that comics can achieve with the combination of pictures and words, an experience unlike no other. This is my first run at the subject and I hope to revise this piece in the future based on any feedback I receive.

Content is fine, but format leaves something to be desired. The purpose of an infoGRAPHIC is to Show things to people who don't want to Read a whole lot of it. And you've picked a topic that's very visual. But you've still got most of it so wordy with huge blocks of text it defeats the purpose!

Two nitpics. 1) what do you have against apostrophes? 2) you mix references together for comic Strips, comic Books, and Graphic novels, 3 distinctly different media. Some comments about strips are out of context for books, and vice versa.
