This means that the hero is a good guy and wants to do the right thing. It also means he went on a long journey and had to fight monsters and other villains.

"There I tried to land, but could not, for it was a bad place and the waves dashed me against the rocks, so I came to a river that seemed the most likely landing place, for there were no rocks and it was sheltered from the wind" (Homer).

They are pretty similar with how he was crashing against the rocks. The waves got him off gaurd. But he got saved by the girl in the water and in the novel the cyclops asks the gods to make it hard to get home and it doesn't get mentioned in the original text when Zeus light bolt hit the ship.

"Fighting for their lives they were by far the most valiant, for the others had already fallen under the arrows of Odysseus" (Homer 173).

In the original text it talks about a lot of different people Odysseus killed unlike in the graphic novel where it shows more of what it looked like. It says in the original text "Demopptolemus, Teleachus Euryades, Eumaesus Elatus, while the stockman killed Pisander" (Homer 273). In the graphic novel it shows what he looked like and talks about the people he saved. They are the same by saying what Odysseus did. They both say the same weapons he uses a bow and spears. They also explain it kind of the same on what there plan was.

"Then Odysseus in his turn melted and wept as he clasped his dear and faithful wife to his bosom" (Homer 108).

Pretty much the same reaction but Odysseus in the novel didn't fall and weep instead he hugs her and they go to sleep and in the original they never did. In the graphic novel it shows much more love where the original shows quicker revenge.
