It's Shanower's take on, among other stories, Iphegeneia at Aulis, and it's powerful stuff. And a more self-serving note, if you like comics based on ancient heroic legends, why not try The Ulster Cycle my ongoing adaptation of the eponymous group of Irish legends? If you're interested, it's serialised at my blog (click on my name). Cheers! If you think the first volume’s good – and it is – you have to read the second volume, “Sacrifice”.
