About the series
In the early 1990s, Zinco published this four-issue miniseries that reimagined the ancient Sumerian king Gilgamesh as a modern-day superhero, blending mythological themes with contemporary comic storytelling. Written by Mike W. Barr with art by Dan Jurgens, the series offers a thoughtful, action-driven take on an immortal hero navigating the 20th century. Though short-lived, Gilgamesh II stands out as a creative fusion of epic legend and superhero tropes from a smaller publisher.
