There are two main ones. The one published by Marvel is-to my mind-not very good with the writing and pretty good with artwork. My pick would "Age of Bronze: A Thousand Ships" by Eric Shanower. This version is true to the best translations, has great artwork and good writing. The sticking point is two fairly explicit love scenes in the book. It's definitely one that parents would have to see first if a teacher wanted to use it.

Anyone know of a good adapted version of the Iliad to use with a 7th grade
advanced reading class?

Thanks
