It is a retail product. As a matter of fact, it's $30 for a 128 page hardback at Borders. Thirty dollars isn't exactly low cost, especially when other graphic novels are longer (page wise) and half the price.

Clearly they're in it for the profit, not the story. (Well, to me it's pretty clear.) It seems the various media outlets are trying to profit off the personal loss of so many by calling it art and/or claiming that they're trying to make the information more available to a wider audience. That's why I'm against it.
