The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 15.2058  Tuesday, 7 December 2004

From:           Richard Burt <rburt@english.ufl.edu>
Date:           Monday, 6 Dec 2004 20:45:43 -0500
Subject:        Shakespeare in Comics

There's a computer simulation of part of Henry V in X-men Unlimited no.
5 December 2004, and there is an English graphic novel adaptation of JC
called Julius by Anthony Johnston and Brett Weldele.  The text has been
modernized and the setting is black gansta, East End London kind of
(like the BBC Othello).  The comic laid out in Acts, and each page
announcing a new Act has a line form the play (not modernized). Ditto
for a page with "The End."
