Eng | CBR | July 1, 2009 | 25 Pages | 28.8 MB
The Trojan War is the latest in the Marvel Illustrated imprint from Marvel Comics. As with others in this line for comic adaptations of classic literature, it is told in the form of a 5-part limited series. Writer Roy Thomas, who has penned many of these adaptations, has essentially taken the collection of fragmentary tales from antiquity known as the Epic Cycle -- The Cypria (which dealt with events preceding The Iliad), The Aethiopis (the days afterward, through the death of Achilles), The Little Iliad (which carries the story through the building of the great wooden horse), The Sack of Ilium (the fall and destruction of Troy) and The Returns (the homecomings, some of them tragic, of the Greek heroes) -- and along with Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, faithfully attempts to create an idealized, linear graphic novelization out of the destruction of the city of Troy by Grecian armies. Issue #3 tells of Achilles' might in battle--and of his death.
