4-6Toon Graphic series.
Translated by Richard Kutner.
This title offers a Greek myth in modern styling. It's an oft-told story, and the text is nothing new or particularly noteworthy, but, with a graphic format not constrained by typical comic layouts, the presentation is open and free-flowing (if hampered by asterisks and footnotes). Character profiles and an illustrated index provide useful background information. Reading list, websites.
