The Life and Loves of Cleopatra

In 1969, Apex Novelties published the sole issue of The Life and Loves of Cleopatra, a comic that promised a dramatic, romanticized take on the legendary queen’s story. Most frequently associated with artist Harry Driggs, this single-issue series stands as a curious, self-contained artifact of late-1960s comics, offering a snapshot of how historical figures were reimagined in the medium of the era.
