The Gods of Mount Olympus

Joe Staton’s clean, dramatic linework defines this three-issue 1974 series from Quintessence Publications, a concise modern retelling of Greek mythology that distills the major tales of the Olympian pantheon into a compact comic form. Though brief, it stands as an early, earnest attempt to bring classical epics to the direct market, offering a stately, illustrated primer on the gods and their enduring stories.
