We are saddened to learn of the passing of graphic memoirist and filmmaker Marjane Satrapi (1969 – June 2026). Persepolis was a stunning work of comic art. For some it was their first foray into reading and making comics. For others it was a staple in their comics and graphic novels syllabi.

A panel from Persepolis. A child and grandmother lay in bed together. The woman says INLLFF YOU'LL MEET LOTS OF JERKS IF THEY HURT YOU, TELL YOURSELF THAT IT'S BECAUSE THEY'RE STUPID. THAT WILL HELD KEEP YOU FROM REACTING TO THEIR CRUELTY. BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN BITTERNESS AND VENGEANCE... ALWAYS KEEP YOUR DIGNITY AND A TRUE TO YOURSELF.

This poster was one of the most fun things I got to do this year, and I hope it captures the spirit of being a student who’s also a working cartoonist at SDSU.
