Looking for some interesting art and literature. Preferably short stories or interesting facts such as greek mythology or even culture.

This series is amazing, a re-telling of the trojan war in graphic novel form:

This is a great example of more modern mythology, mixed with art. You may know it well already. Personally, I always loved Kipling's "Just So Stories," and the illustrations.

I wouldn't not consider it a myth, but if you get to the end of the book you'll understand why I posted it here
.."Butterfly of the stars" tells us about adventure of a scientist, a shailing ship navigator, a billionaire and their followers in a project which aimes to escape from the blessing Earth. In fact, there're too much war, too much destruction and too much calamity on Earth at that state and they all think that the Earth will become a dead land and the best way to do is to flee.
The scientist conceives a spaceship which runs with solar energy and it has a butterfly form, the billionaire helps him financially to construct the spaceship with others scientists, engineers and wokers and the shailing ship navigator sails the spaceship....

robert graves - greek myths
explains myths as they were historically, much more interesting and enlightening than the myths themselves

I love Joseph Campbell, and this was a great read with some especially interesting stories from the Hindu Purayanas
