Trojan War Playing Cards
Well, my Kickstarter donation to Greek Myth Comix finally paid dividends, and I received my pack of Trojan War Playing Cards today.
These are slick, professionally packaged cards, glossy and colorful, and as durable as any traditional casino pack you might buy. Check out the spread:
The deck is laid out thus:
Spades: the Greek Army
Hearts: the women of the Trojan War
Clubs: the Trojan Army
Diamonds: the gods
Jokers: various Muses
Some of the cards are beautifully tinted, and all have the characters' names written in English and Greek. I was happy to see that I can actually read the names in Greek.
I don't know when Greek Myth Comix will offer these packs again, but since we follow each other on Twitter I'll keep you updated.
Clytemnestra, by the way, demonstrated her relief that Agamemnon's finally come home. There is a Clytemnestra card in the deck, too.
