I cannot tell a lie. I must give credit where credit is due.
The idea about Helen of Troy came from cartoonist Larry Gonick's series of graphic novels (let's face it: comic books), The Cartoon History of the Universe. A friend of mine who's heavily into comic books loaned the series to me. I've heard that some fairly open-minded history teachers use Gonick's comics to supplement the standard history textbooks, and the result is that a lot of kids who normally couldn't care less about history suddenly develop an interest.
Vol. 1 starts with the Big Bang and takes us up through the Trojan War. Gonick's drawings of Helen of Troy cracked me up! Gonick took her rather peculiar family history and lineage into consideration and drew her with a nice bod, but a face that looks not unlike Daisy Duck.
I went googling to see if I could find a drawing of her, but unfortunately not.
