The Magic Life of Milarepa, Tibet's Great Yogi

Adapted from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition by Eva Van Dam, this single-issue graphic novel from Shambhala Publications (1991) distills the legendary eleventh-century life of the revered yogi Milarepa into a vivid, contemplative comic. Van Dam’s distinctive artwork guides readers through Milarepa’s dramatic transformation from a vengeful sorcerer to an enlightened master, making a foundational spiritual biography accessible through the visual storytelling of the form.
