The Ring of the Nibelung

In 1991, DC Comics presented a single-issue adaptation of Richard Wagner's epic opera cycle, The Ring of the Nibelung, scripted by Roy Thomas with art by Gil Kane. This ambitious comic distilled the sprawling Norse-inspired saga of gods, heroes, and a cursed golden ring into a vivid, illustrated format. Though brief, it stands as a notable attempt to bring a cornerstone of Western classical mythology to a superhero-era comics audience.
