About the series
In the mid-2000s, Random House published Othello, a seven-issue comic series that reimagines Shakespeare's tragedy of jealousy and betrayal in a modern setting. The series translates the classic story of the Moorish general and his ensnarement by the villainous Iago into a contemporary visual language, making the timeless themes of race, manipulation, and love accessible to a new audience. While specific creators aren't listed, the series stands out as a thoughtful, literary adaptation from a major publishing house, bridging classic drama and the comic medium.
