Because comic books aren't over a hundred years old and dusty. Imagine how many uptight English professors we could upset by including some of the best graphic novels as literature?

Several colleges do offer literature courses specifically devoted to comic books and graphic novels.

What sort of knowledge can we derive from, say, a Jane Austen novel, an author whom has written several novels that have become literature?

Literature isn't defined by age and dust. There are plenty of English professors who teach modern literature and alternative mediums as literature.

Sandman won the World Fantasy Award, which so galled the pretentious that they changed the rules so that comics can no longer be nominated.

Personally, I consider comic books to be more of an art form, rather than literary efforts. Not my cup of tea though. I do know that the comics I remember could hardly be classed as having literary merit.
