Modern comic book and graphic novel artists have created visual interpretations of <em>Beowulf</em> for decades, both illustrating and altering the classic story to pull out new themes.</p><p>This book examines the growing canon of <em>Beowulf</em> comic books and graphic novels since the 1940s, and shows the remarkable emergence of new traditions--from re-envisioning the medieval look, to creating new plotlines, and even to transforming his identity. While placing <em>Beowulf</em> in a fantastical medieval setting, a techno-dystopia of the future, or modern-day America, artists have appropriated the tale to comment on social issues such as war, environmental issues, masculinity, and consumerism.
