It's pretty much the same way here. Most people consider "comics" to be DC and Marvel and everything else is "grahpic novels".

Is english the first language in your country?

>>81886060
No.

Well I spoke out of experience
In France I heard "bd" for comics and "comic" for capeshit
In latin America I heard "tebeo" or "historieta" for comics and "comic" for capeshit
In Brazil I heard "cuadrinho" for comics and "comic" for capeshit
In Italy I heard "fumetto" for comics and "comic" for capeshit

But maybe it is not the same in your own

I read and collect comics, I'm from Brazil, literally nobody says that

>>81886050
That's pretty pretentious though.

They're 100% interchangeable, "tira comica" and "novela grafica" are also used liberally.

Except no you fucking retard. While here in the UK capeshit is the most popular, we have two prominent non-capeshits; 2000AD and Viz. In the rest of Europe fucking Disney comics tower over all others in popularity.

>the same way Americans use "manga" for moeshit.
But we don't do that, bait-senpai.
