Hi all,

Some of you may be interested in these graphic versions of  
Shakespeare done by Classical Comics. The email below is from the  
Australian distributor (I'm not connected;).

The Classical Comics website has some interesting free downloads too.  
Including previews and earlier graphic versions without any speech in  
the speech bubbles. Looks useful.

Anyone out there using comics to teach classics? There are a number  
of different titles out there at present (ie Random House has done a  
couple too, ie Macbeth and The Tempest). I have a Proust comic on my  
shelf at home.

Anyway,
