Is it fair in “The Killing Joke”? Is it fair in “Hills Like White Elephants”? 3. What is the Point-of-View in “The Killing Joke”? Is it possible to tell a story in the graphic novel format from any of the other points-of-view ( 1 st -person, 3 rd -person limited, or 3 rd -person omniscient)? How might the author have done this?
