The Odyssey

Marvel's 2009 Odyssey is a single-issue prestige comic that retells Homer's epic through a superhero lens, blending classical mythology with Marvel's cosmic and mythological pantheon. Written and illustrated by a creative team steeped in both ancient lore and modern comics, it reimagines Odysseus's journey as a visually striking, action-packed odyssey across realms. While its brief run makes it a niche curiosity, it stands as a bold, standalone experiment in literary adaptation within Marvel's broader tradition of reinterpreting classic tales.
