Status Updates From A Odisseia de Homero

It's wonderful to see Homer's Odyssey in a graphic novel adaptation, that portrays it so creatively and awesomely. I loved the graphics, they took me on an adventure, and what an amazing adventure it was.

Ugh! This genre is soooo not for me 😩

okay Penelope wtf??

He was warned about the cattle... So that's why his wife...

As someone who had to memorize and recite an Emily Dickinson poem... ODYSSEUS IS SO FUNNY!!

The cyclops eating men instead of his ewes?

I SEE A SONG OF PAST ROMANCE, I SEE THE SACRIFICE OF MAN, I SEE PORTRAYALS OF BETRAYAL AND A BROTHER'S FINAL STAND. I SEE YOU ON THE BRINK OF DEATH, I SEE YOU DRAW YOUR FINAL BREATH, I SEE A MAN WHO GETS TO MAKE IT HOME ALIVE BUT IT'S NO LONGER YOU
(I'm sorry (not sorry) for the references) :)

SHE HAD US IN JUST TWO WORDS
COME INSIDE (DAM)

MY NAME IS NOBODY, NOBODY, NOBODY

EPIC THE MUSICAL ODYSSEUS WOULD NEVER!!!!! (imagine cheating on your wife that you wanna get home to after years at war😒)

FATHER, GOD KING, RARELY DO I ASK FOR FAVORS. NOW I'M KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR WITH HOPES TO SAVE A FRIENDSHIP WITH ONE WHO'S A PRISONER FAR FROM HOME: ODYSSEUS (only epic fans understand😔)

This really helps understanding the odyssey. I’ve read the actual book before and hadn’t realized how much I’d missed until I started looking through this version.

Why Telemachus uglyyy😭😭😭 he’s supposed to be a cute little pookie and they say he’s 17 but bro looks like a 40 year old man

Good stuff!

So far, so good! The artwork isn't as impressive as Manga Shakespeare, but the storyline is much more crisply presented.

It seems I can no longer read any version of The Odyssey without hearing Epic the musical in my head lmao

reading with the kids of course 🙂

I’ve made it to the underworld, I really have Epic The musical sounding off in my head at every turn and am just devouring the book, wanting to pick out all the differences

I'm enjoying this far more than I expected. I've read excerpts of The Odyssey before but I don't think I've ever read the entire thing. It's fun to see how many of these character names have permeated pop culture. I regularly hear Telemachus on Bluey and Nausicaa was the name of the title character in Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind.
