Graphic novels, as a literary genre, teach how to combine text and images effectively. French graphic novels, in particular, explore relatively unknown genres in multiple formats without pagination. They experiment with graphics and narratives with original tones, styles, and content. The research endeavors to examine portrayals of Eastern and Western cultures, linguistic aspects of the French language, and artistic choices in the Francophone world through a comparative analysis of graphic novels by two prolific authors: Guy Delisle, a French Canadian, and Riad Sattouf, a French Syrian. Guy Delisle’s graphic novels explain his life in Quebec (his birthplace) and other countries (those he visits for work). On the contrary, Riad Sattouf describes his experiences living in France, Syria, and Libya. The research concludes with the possible biases that the works may have based on the upbringings of the authors and the way that these biases alter the perceptions that the readers have of these countries based on the media.
