Classical Comics is a UK publisher creating graphic novel adaptations of classical literature. True to the original vision of the author, the book has been further enhanced by using only the finest artists - giving you a truly wonderful reading experience that you'll return to again and again.
Whilst the language of the immortal bard can be seen as beautiful for those who study it in great detail, those of us who don't have the time miss out on the subleties of the story, the humour and the social comment.
Well done to these guys for making Henry V accessible both graphically and in prose.
The third in my collection, and another superb offering. The text is unabridged, and translated into more 'modern' English. The main speeches however remain in Shakesperian English. What a stunning idea!!!! Well done Classical Comics, why hasn't this been done before? I've already waxed lyrical about the artwork, so won't bore you with that again, but the three text options have made Shakespeare available to everyone. I'll be buying the rest. Lead on McDuff (I'm hoping that is from Macbeth!)
