Son of Classics and Comics presents thirteen original studies of representations of the ancient world in the medium of comics. Building on the foundation established by their groundbreaking Classics and Comics (OUP, 2011), Kovacs and Marshall have gathered a wide range of studies with a new, global perspective. Studies presented by George Kovacz and C. W. Marshall in their book show current comics as very complicated works, which are in no way lacking when compared with current prose. Classic philologists may be cured by this book from their notion that comics are only rather and easy play for children who are too lazy to read.
