Macbeth: the Graphic Novel, by William Shakespeare

A Classic in Graphic Form

This classic play is reintroduced in graphic form. The main character, Hamlet, a good servant of the king, is tempted beyond his limits by ambition. Giving in to his desires only haunts him and ultimately destroys him. War, murder, mysticism and psychological torment combine to create a memorable tale.

The most striking aspect of this version is the modern English used. Each Act and Scene is clearly marked making it ideal for students who may have trouble understanding the English of Shakespeare’s time. This is a great reference tool.
