As he did for Canterbury Tales and Dante's Inferno, Chwast created his own graphic novel take on The Odyssey. The essentials of the story is there with some humorous additions. The ships in the story are spaceships, Circe is dressed in Wonder Woman style, Odysseus uses an electric shaver, Mercury uses a jetpack, and more wonderful weirdness. Of the three Chwast versions of classics, I liked this the best.
