(4) 4-6 Toon Graphic series. Translated by Richard Kutner. The Greek tragedy is given modern graphical packaging. The straightforwardly retold text, translated from the French, isn't particularly noteworthy, but the open and free-flowing comic presentation, which doesn't constrain the art to traditional panels, is suited to visual learners. Character profiles and an illustrated index provide useful background information. Reading list, websites.
