(4) 4-6 Toon Graphic series. Translated by Richard Kutner. This French import offers a straightforward retelling of the familiar Greek myth in graphic-novel form. While the translated text is undistinguished, the comics-style art is effective. The page design is more open than typical American comics, with single- and double-page spreads in addition to panel illustrations. An illustrated index provides useful background on the people and places mentioned in the story.
