Hello,
Ramon presents an incredibly interesting blog detailing the issues of the depiction of images in the graphic novel Safe Area Gorazde by Joe Sacco. I thought it was very interesting how you connected how Joe Sacco draws images in his book and how it correlates to modern media representation. I found the most interesting part of your post the paragraph where you examine the problems that present themselves with the images in the book. I thought it was very interesting how you brought traumatic events such as 9/11 into the conversation as they have the inevitability of being reported on, and how the importance of events that are reported on are conceived differently by different groups across the globe. All in all a great post that provokes a lot of questions on how we view things in our society.
