Book Description: Synopsis: Immortality Isn't Forever tells what happened to the Greek gods. Introduces Bacchus, the 4,000 year old Greek God of Wine, Joe Theseus and the Eyeball Kid.
Classic comic drama "Immortality Isn't Forever" is the first volume re-presenting Eddie Campbell's classic independent comic book series "Bacchus". Campbell (known as the creator of "Alec: The King Canute Crowd", and illustrator of Alan Moore's "From Hell") explores the life of Bacchus (Dionysus), the god of revelry as he roams from bar to bar, drinking only wine, and bittersweetly reminiscing about the days when the Greek and Roman gods were in their prime. Campbell not only offers a new story - a gritty and sometimes humorous fantasy out of the 80's, but smoothly integrates re-tellings of the ancient myths, miraculously without them sounding forced or unwieldy. "Bacchus" puts perspective on Roman and Greek myths, as well as using them as source material, but is enjoyable regardless of the reader's familiarity with them.
