Tragic novels could be considered the opposite. Comic novels are often light - hearted and humorous, while tragic novels deal with serious, often sad and gloomy themes like death, loss, and despair.
Yes, for example, 'The Great Gatsby' is not a comic novel. It's a rather serious exploration of themes like wealth, love, and the American Dream. The tone is not humorous but rather melancholic and reflective.
I'm not really sure. It's kind of a confusing phrase. Maybe it means creating something that's completely contrary to the typical concept of art in comics.
One could consider non - fictional works as the opposite of mystery novels. Mystery novels are typically fictional stories centered around a mystery to be solved, while non - fictional works deal with real - life events, people, and facts.
