by Igor Baranko When a blind boxer and an old man visit the estate of Pifitos, little does he realize that they will send him on a journey to become the new Hero of Greece. Facing drunken centaurs, music-loving monsters, and puzzling counsel from Dionysus himself, Pifitos and the lovely Amitis sail to a nameless island to face Hecate and the gates of Hades. Can Pifitos survive an unexpected turn of events to become the Greatest of all Heroes? Find out in the English-language debut of the staggeringly gifted Ukrainian artist, Igor Baranko. The story of Pifitos is both a tale told in epic style -- purporting to be an 'unknown lost poem of Homer' -- and a rollicking send-up of Greek mythology in all its bawdy glory b&w, 136pg |
