Well, ok but my take would be that any mention of the 'Beats' just might make some people actually remember Kerouac and then have that little light go on when they see that somewhat recently published story co - written a long time ago by JK and Wm Burroughs.
And that imo would be a good thing.
Having said that -because I did find that book last time grazing in The Strand -
a graphic novel on Beats doesn't hold any interest personally !
Seeing some of them in the worn out or boozed out later cycles around the E Village has been quite enough of them thank you , those phases may not have made that graphic version.
