Eric Shanower's "Age of Bronze" makes this look like the badly rendered thing it is

I’d like to see you do better.

Great for education 😄

Eric Shanower's Age of Bronze is the definitive comic adaption of the Illiad@@KaptajnKaffe

​@@filipnassen9076ya

Greek mythology extends to Iranian mythology as well, in fact that whole region. It's very deep and I'm only now being serious with Greek Mythology. It would be nice to form a study club for the illiad.

I'm always confused, i read the german book/tale of the "Nibelungen". Equal to this story, you don't know what you reading, until you see some "one of a kind" trope, and it hits you. Trojan horse? Hagen? I know that, and then, you realize that in every fiber of our culture, there's some of the old. You can't erase the past to that degree.

Come read Mahabharat Hindu Mythology 😂

Does this video leave out any major plot points or actions?

Named my first born after Hector and the second after king Arthur. Same reason, it is important to have strong rolemodels to be inspired by 😁

@@KaptajnKaffe With values like that, your kids have great role models right there in mom, and dad.

@@DickDickstein thank you! 😁

I always strive to be like Achilles-gay, but still able to kick some trojan a$s.

@@GunnerTheTherian I conquer other men with spear by day, but by night men conquer me with spears!! 🤣

No, it's not the best version. It's been slightly altered in some important scenes.

​@ThePaganSun I was about to say the same thing. Still entertaining, if nothing else.

I still don't see why after all these years. It still is a boring book with boring stories.

​@@journeylife7491Boring to those with lesser minds yes

It's more accurate than the movie Troy but not completely. This still has some important changes too that don't match the Iliad.

@@ThePaganSun I'd say it's around 90-95% there, but I can't remember Iliad for 100% anyway, so I'm just guesstimating.

@tombullish3198 This video on KZfaq, you mean? Ehh it's closer to 85% - 90% accurate. But Agamemnon's aristeia for example was a LOT more epic than portrayed here and there were other changes as well.

@@ThePaganSun Agamemnon's aristeia, this I remember now you mention it. =)

Exactly ❤

This is mythology, not history. Dunno if you noticed the Olympian gods and Nymphs and stuff.

@@hagbardceline7118like this is the key in the sentence

​@@hagbardceline7118He meant if history class was similar to this

Why would history class be about fictional events

Thanks

Punctuation is our friend.

@@dugowt9243I forgot this isn’t a comment section instead of a college essay paper dork😂

It took me Almost 20 years after graduation and a long sleepless night to get into Greek mythology. Always loved history but boredom is how I became interested in mythology

Yeah bro Greek mythology is pretty awesome as well as the Viking mythology is pretty great to

Please read Indian mythology also

@@Factwithdibakar Agreed. Viking and Indian legends are very interesting. SAme with all the old world ancient civilizations we're learning more about. There are a lot of great channels that cover all these topics on KZfaq today. One channel I enjoy a lot is Hammerson Peters, which makes tons of videos on Canadian Mythology from their tribes, fur traders, etc. Not to mention that he also does a lot of stuff about old legends like fairies, old medicine men, and even Bigfoot. 🤓

​@@jasongraef2659Irish myth and legend is underrated, though I am glad it is not well known as it is ours.

Same lol

:)

Thanks! It took me a couple of years to finish this project, so it makes me really happy to read comments like yours

@@SeeUinHistory I will share it to maximum people and email organisations and channels to promote this...

The Iliad only covers part of the tenth year of the war, ending with Hector’s death. It does not delve into the war’s set up and also its aftermath.

This isn’t the Iliad. The story of Troy is pieced together from numerous books/tales. The Iliad covers only a tiny fraction of the war

U spurn a god well u deal with the consequences

What about "if Apollo hadn't cursed Cassandra, the war could have been prevented?"😂

​@@fett333this has such rapy vibes! he was upset she didn't correspond his affections and did her dirty. Men

​@@maunroeoh boo hoo they aren't real😂

@OnionSoup-yj2pf it might not be real, but either way, myths are a reflection of societies and that way of acting by no means should be acceptable

thanks Ronnie

@@SeeUinHistory no problem 👍🏻

1997 ?

thanks

very happy with Paris origins

:)

Gay, black Achilles they had to make it as inclusive as possible

Ha ha, seriously, go to Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, whatever today, and see how inclusive they are toward black people. (This is a secondary reaction to Netflix and black Cleopatra, who was racially friggin' Macedonian...)

@@dominicesposito7659 tbf, the "gay" part was actually pretty accurate. Patroclus was actually his lover

@@dominicesposito7659Achilles had a male lover

Thanks!

thats in other adaptations

​@@kanatokrazyActually she only died in the later Aeschylus. Homer never mentions her, Hesiod and the Epic Cycle claim she was saved and even Euripides (later than Aeschylus) also states she was saved.

Blame who??? It’s just a fictional story. Unless you’re crazy🤣

@@Me-fm9zk so what if it's fictional? Does it take away from the principle of the situation? Smh.

It wasn't IN the Iliad! It was part of a slightly later Epic Cycle and since in the earliest versions Iphigenia gets saved, it was no more heinous than Abraham almost sacrificing HIS son. And he did it not for hubris but because the goddess Artemis (or a prophet claiming Artemis) demanded it.

It would be great if they hired us to do the series!

@@SeeUinHistory Pitch it!!

@@MajorCharlesCarringtonVChow

Netflix has a Troy series. It’s only one season. It’s pretty awesome though

It’s called Troy: Fall of a City. It’s similar to the Spartacus type series
