FRANK MILLER'S 300
In 1998 Frank Miller put out a 5 issue comic series "300" which is based on historic fact of how in 480 B.C., King Xeres of Persia put together an army of hundreds of thousands and after invading Greece, was met up by a small but determined group of 300 Spartans who refused to be defeated and resulted in a 3 day battle.
This series is now put together in one complete coffee table book which looks spectacular. Millers art is great but definitely not pretty. They are currently working on a movie based this book.
