Stickman Odyssey is not Homer’s epic in sequential doodle form. Instead, it’s a whole new story, rife with monsters, characters, and settings that would be no surprise in an actual ancient tale. The hero, Zozimos, is silly and flawed, in the company of many modern children’s book characters. The story ricochets from setting to setting, never letting up on the action. It is a story which will captivate readers with its effective mix of modern humor and ancient mood.
