Don Quixote

In 1979, Pendulum Press launched a single-issue comic adaptation of Miguel de Cervantes’ classic novel, scripted by John Norwood Fago with art by Fred Carrillo. This entry in the publisher’s illustrated classics line brought the timeless tale of the delusional knight-errant and his loyal squire to a new generation of readers. Though brief, it remains a notable example of how comic books can distill epic literature into a visually engaging format.
