A Colorado Springs graphic artists tribute to the victims of the Aurora movie theater shooting is spreading across the web.
Mark Rantals blue ribbon image interlaces elements of the Colorado state flag, a heart shape and an outline of Batman (see below). His cover photo includes the words July 20, 2012 In Memoriam. The image is reminiscent of a 19-year-old students tribute to Steve Jobs, which went viral.
The Denver Comic Con Facebook page grabbed Rantals photo and urged fans to like this picture to show your support and love for our community. More than 3,200 people have shared the post.
