Stick figure Hamlet.
Yes.
That Hamlet.
Yes. The Whole play. Word for word. As a webcomic.
It is a bit wordy, in the speachy bits, I admit. And it's not quite as fast moving as a moving picture.
But it's easier to read and understand (imnsho) than the traditional, printed, text with footnotes and margin notes every three lines, 'cause it is illustrated, and all.
And you only have to read four panels at a time.
...He's down to the final scene.
I wonder if he'll do another play, next.

With comics (especially with more sophisticated illustration than stick figures), a lot of that can be skipped completely.

They've got some good people working on them too, the bloke doing the art for A Christmas Carol just finished doing the Doctor Who comic strip for almost three years and I'm tempted to buy Jane Eyre just because John M Burns is doing the art, he's a bit of a legend in British comics.

*oooh* ... I may just succumb and buy the Tempest, when it comes out (trying to remember if it's Richard III or Richard II that is my Cousin Martin's favorite...).
Thanks for the link!

Cover the bases: get him all three!
(...what do you mean, "they're not two parts of The Richard Trilogy"?)
