"Xenophon's Anabsis comic by Petri Hiltunen out now" Topic

7 years ago my good friend the renown comic book artist Petri Hiltunen published his comic book adaptation of Xenophpon's classic Anabasis.

Today it has finally been published in English.

At Amazon.uk you can check quite a few sample pages:

At Petri's own site you can check some background info etc:

The publisher's page lists several different vendors that sell the book:

Petri has published 35 graphic novels and this is the first of them to be translated into English.

Hopefully you'll be able to read later on his adaptation of Howard's The Gray God Passes in Enlish. A fictionalized version of the Battle of Clontarf should be of interest to TMPers…

His adaptation of Robert E Howard's The Queen of the Black Coast has been pirated info Spanish though (La Reina de la Costa Negra).

Here is a comparison of three different adaptations of The Queen of the Black Coast:

To get a hit on Amazon in the U.S., I had to search for "Petri Hiltunen." Title or just the last name didn't get it to come up.

:o

Bizarre logic at Amazon search engine… :/

But believe me, I run across that kind of thing all the time. When searching for manga titles you don't get a hit for the latest/next volume. Then you scrounge the ISBN from other source and, BAM, now you can (usually) finally find the title.

Very cool. We read the original back in HS

In the original Ancient Greek!

"O thalassa ! Thalassa !!"
