The Trailer for 100 NIGHTS OF HERO Is Not Your Typical Graphic Novel Adaptation

The article covers the release of the first trailer for the upcoming graphic novel "100 Nights of Hero," written and illustrated by Isabel Greenberg. The book is a follow-up to her award-winning work, The Encyclopedia of Early Earth, and is set in the same dark fantasy world.

The plot is a feminist-leaning take on the classic One Thousand and One Nights. It centers on a storyteller named Hero who is in a secret love affair with a woman named Cherry. When Cherry's cruel husband, Jerome, discovers them, he locks Cherry in a tower and issues a challenge to Hero: entertain him with a new story for 100 consecutive nights. If Hero succeeds, Cherry will be freed; if he fails, he will be killed.

The animated trailer highlights this high-stakes premise and showcases Greenberg's distinctive and beautiful art style. The stories Hero tells are drawn from the folklore of Early Earth and focus on the tales of brave women.

The graphic novel will be released by Abrams Books on October 2, 2024.
