The original three-volume anthology "The Graphic Canon" presented the world's cl
assic literature--from ancient times to the late twentieth century--as eye-poppi
ng comics, illustrations, and other visual forms. In this follow-up volume, youn
g people's literature through the ages is given new life by the best comics arti
sts and illustrators. Fairy tales, fables, fantastical adventures, young adult n
ovels, swashbuckling yarns, your favorite stories from childhood and your teenag
e years . . . they're all here, in all their original complexity and strangeness
, before they were censored or sanitized.
