DecimusCaesar Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I've just come across this Roman themed webcomic for those who are interested. It's described as a 'Soap opera with swords and sandals'. It's also updated "almost daily" by Carol 'Klio'. It's been around since 2005, but this is the first time I've heard about it. Perhaps It's been mentioned here before? Here's the link: SPQR Blues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursus Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 ... I don't think I get this comic. No superheroes for one thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion-Macro Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 ... I don't think I get this comic. No superheroes for one thing. Since when do we need superheros in comics? ~I think it looks quite good. I must bookmark it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neoflash Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Not to be overcritical but, although the drawings are nice, I find the script and dialogue to be of poor quality. If you want really good roman comic check out The Adventures of Alix, I read all of the Alix comic books in my late teens and I can tell you they were pretty damn good. I actually started reading them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
