World of Comic_Week 9


I read the Euro Comic, Persepolis. The comic was a very personal telling of Marjane Satrapi’s Life living in Iran, and then her high school time in Vienna, Austria. The book was very indulging and was difficult for me to put down when I read it for the first time. It was very interesting seeing her young ideals of the world, and wanting to change it for the better develop as she grew up and finding herself in the large world.  Watching her interactions you can see what influenced and what strongly stood in her mind when she grew up.
I think that is the strongest plus to comics that depict real life events. You can feel the randomness of life and have a better understand of characters. Because the writer isn’t making them up and creating their own new personality. But is using the uniqueness of an actual person.
