The Odyssey

Published by
Bruno Catarino comics
Description

A retelling of the epic journey of Odysseus back to Ithaca, against all odds & the gods themselves, set in a rich sci-fi galaxy far away... :) The goal when retelling this story as sci-fi is to bring it to the 21st century and RECAPTURE the same sense of WONDER and IMPOSSIBLE ODDS that the original had in ancient times. In the 21st century, the sea has almost no mysteries left. Space does. In the 21st century, the distance between Troy and Ithaca are almost meaningless. But what if they were separated by light-years of never-ending void? In the 21st century, we know there are no Gods who rule the world. Oligarchs do. Algorithms and AI do. And that's why, in the 21st century, we chose to retell this story through a sci-fi prism, set in space, in a galaxy far far away... 🙃
