Omschrijving
A book that retells the story of Homer's Odyssey starting with the end of a great war in the stars and the beginning of a very long journey home for Odyssia and her crew of warriors. Homer's Odyssey is re-imagined as a psychedelic, gender-broke science-fiction epic that tells the story of three legendary warrior-queens returning home after a centuries-long battle. "A remarkable comic that gets better with each turn of the page." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) "ODY-C is an epic poem hurtling through space on psychedelic, science fiction wings." —Wired "Fraction and Ward are doing wildly imaginative work." —AV Club An eye-searing, mind-bending, gender-shattering epic science fiction retelling of Homer's Odyssey starting with the end of a great war in the stars and the beginning of a very long journey home for Odyssia and her crew of warriors. Told in dactylic hexameter verse with a visual sensibility that redefines the very possibilities of the comics medium, the journey to Ithicaa begins HERE, by Matt Fraction ( Sex Criminals) and Christian Ward ( Infinite Vacation, Olympus). Collects issues #1-5.
