Ben Hur

In this 2008–2010 miniseries from Delcourt, the classic epic Ben-Hur is adapted into a sweeping four-issue comic, capturing the tale of Judah Ben-Hur’s journey from Jewish prince to Roman galley slave and his eventual quest for vengeance and redemption. The series is most associated with its writer, who brings a cinematic scope to the ancient world, and its artist, whose detailed illustrations evoke the grandeur of the original story. It matters as a faithful yet visually dynamic retelling of a timeless narrative, offering a fresh entry point for readers familiar with the novel and film.
