AGE OF BRONZE, the continuing graphic novel series by Eisner Award-winning cartoonist Eric Shanower, presents the complete story of the world-famous War at Troy, freshly retold for the 21st century. All the drama of the ancient and thrilling tradition unfolds before your eyes, with all the familiar people and events of the Trojan War.
Age of Bronze is first serialized in the comic book series. The story is then collected into volumes. The first several of seven projected volumes are available now. Volume one is titled A THOUSAND SHIPS, volume two is titled SACRIFICE, and the first part of volume three is titled BETRAYAL.
Primary sources for the story of Age of Bronze begin with Homer’s Iliad, include major and minor works from classical Greece and Rome, many Medieval European sources, and continue through Shakespeare’s Troilus and Cressida and beyond. The art of Age of Bronze draws upon the archaeological excavations of the places where the story took place: Mycenae, Knossos, and Pylos, among others, and especially Troy itself.
