This modern flying metro whale reminds me somehow of the sea elephant by Adam Fuchs, after Giovanni Andrea Maglioli, ca. 1526 - 1606, #Rijksmuseum. Same strange vibe. https://t.co/q5pR9Gsu67

Macbeth was first performced in 1606, a time when only males were allowed to act in theatres. When an actor called in sick, Shakespeare himself was forced to play Lady Macbeth 😂 #ldnont #shakespeare #makecomics https://t.co/YCHWfhVqUO
In 1606, females could not act in plays, so males filled these roles in the first performance of Macbeth. Legend has it that #Shakespeare himself played Lady Macbeth after an actor became sick! 😀 #ldnont #comicbooks https://t.co/EwscX1vlR0
Shakespeare's Macbeth, first performed in 1606, was actually historical fiction. So, who was he really: a tyrant, or a heroic King? #historicalfiction #ldnont #comicbooks https://t.co/4sKzVcYtrP
