Macbeth: The Graphic Novel (American English, Original Text Edition) (Classical Comics)

Witches, murder, ghosts, and madness — one of Shakespeare’s finest tragedies is also a perfect fit for the graphic novel format. This compelling adaptation depicts every blood-curdling scene in easy-to-follow illustrations, accompanied by Shakespeare’s original text. An illustrated cast of characters reminds readers who’s who, and fascinating background information on Shakespeare and the real Macbeth adds historical context.

    I am pleased with my purchase. The pictures are rich,colorful, and full of detail. The book succeeds in portraying Macbeth in a simplistic way, for a reader who is not yet familiar with any plays by Shakespeare and/ or too young to understand the original text without pictures. The beginning of the book shows the pictures of the different characters involved in the story.
    After the end of the story, there are additional historical descriptions, details of theater, and even how the pictures for the graphic novel are made. I bought this book to introduce my boys (ages 10, 12, & 14) to Shakespeare. After they are comfortable with the story, I will transition them to the original text. My book was shipped and sold by Amazon. The book was new, as described, and arrived in perfect condition.

    This review is from: Macbeth: The Graphic Novel (American English, Original Text Edition) (Classical Comics) (Paperback)

    As an English teacher, I’m always looking for means to show my students different ways to look at literature. My main intent to order this one was because it maintained the original text…which it does. Other than that it doesn’t do much special. I’ve found some other graphic novel for other works that made some bold statements with THE IMAGES; this one doesn’t…the graphics are pretty straight forward and concretely consistent. The most unique thing I can show with this one is how it pares down an entire chapter to one spread in the book. The artwork is nice, but doesn’t leap off the page; and when it does leap of the page, it is a bit comical…like the witches.

    I bought this and the No Fear Shakespeare version, but this one was the best. The artwork is excellent and assists with meaning.
