When a dying demigod, Gilgamesh of Uruk, returns to his city after hundreds of years of roaming the spirit world only to find his son taking his place, he removes him from the throne to sit in it for the last time and recall the memories and adventures he had with his best friend for life, the one who gave his life purpose - Enkidu. The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest known written story in the history of humanity. It was written approximately in the 2100s BCE compiled in 12 clay tablets inscribed with cuneiform, the oldest writing system. Following the adventures of a giant demigod king of the oldest city on earth, Uruk, King Gilgamesh follows his equally strong friend Enkidu from a life of power abuse into an adventurous search for immortality battling monsters and gods. Their quest is ultimately fulfilled as they are poetically immortalized by the countless writers, historians, interpreters and of course archaeologists that have worked hard to preserve the story and its meaning of love, friendship and mortality. This is my small attempt at approaching The Epic in contemporary manga/comic form that I originally started as a final project for art school but decided to expand upon it as I didn\'t feel I gave this beautiful thing justice. Enjoy and thanks if you\'ve read this far!
