Classics Illustrated #5: Hamlet

William Shakespeare's Hamlet is one of the most revered and best-loved plays of all time. The story of a young man who strives to avenge his father's death has been performed and read constantly since it debuted at London's Globe Theatre over four hundred years ago. Madness, family, and revenge are only a handful of the universal themes found in this tale. Tom Mandrake's art combined with Steven Grant's adaptation truly realizes the dark nature of this story.
