A thread reminded me of these triptych back from 2017, as a bonus for 's Dates 2 Kickstarter. They are really concept art for this comic idea - that emerged in 2016 but it's like it grew each time I re-read Yourcenar's "Hadrian's Memoirs".
Someday I'll make this.

I will for sure! Right now I have a couple projects on other's writing lined up, but my future authorial aim is a story of Marguerite Yourcenar's 50-year long writing of Hadrian's Memoirs (and, through that, a parallel retelling of Hadrian's life of course).

Ditching the tow rope!
This unusual glider towing method that was tested in 1950. Instead of a long (and sometimes slack) tow rope which had been used in WW 2, this WACO Hadrian is attached to the Curtiss C-46 Commando by a new rigid towing system. It wasn't used operationally.

Hadrian dévore des soleils au p'tit déj dans ! Mais comme on ne peut plus se mettre de soleil sous la dent, faites comme nous, mangez des bouquins ! C'est une métaphore, hein ? Qu'on ne vous attrape pas avec du papier dans la bouche !

Here is Antinous, favourite of emperor Hadrian. After his untimely death by drowning in the Nile, Hadrian had him deified, with statues and busts set up around the empire. Pics taken (with Hadrian) & National Archaeological Museum, Athens.
