Poorly drawn Illiad: You are (not) going home.
(Book 1)
#poorly drawn illiad#the illiad#achilles#odysseus#I am back with more Poorly drawn Illiad!#It significantly helps my comprehension if I have to think about making a silly comic summary for each book.#No. 1 Wife-misser has missed his wife for nine years and would very much like to go see her.#The worst/best part of this book is that Athena makes Ody round up the deserters and bring them back.#“If I'm not able to go home yet - NONE of you are going home yet” kind of attitude.#I cannot believe the gods have been edging the Greeks for nine years.#'Come on guys. Just a bit longer. I promise you'll take troy soon. Have a prophecy of you doing cool war stuff.'#Morale is *so* low. The war is indeed going to absolute shit - and the golden boy of war is having a self imposed timeout.#A modern adaption of the Illiad as a college sports team would go so hard.#Someone must have...right? This has to exist.#The egos…the postering…the hopelessness and hatred for the rival team…The Illiad is the oldest sports story.#Patroclus goes out in Achillies jersey and breaks his ankle. Or something.#Update: After a big research binge…it does not exist. Also I think I may have have an itch to watch a sports anime.#Or I could keep reading THE ILLIAD.
