Comics

[edit]

Evidently Wonder Woman#Silver and Bronze Age, Wonder Woman belongs under Greek and Roman Works based on Greek and Roman works.

I suppose there are many comics beside Wonder Woman and Thor "based on European myths and legends".

Welsh or Celtic myths and legends

[edit]
second of two sections posted at once -P64

The Chronicles of Prydain‎ is based on Welsh M&L loosely. Both the "Mabinogion Tetralogy" and The Owl Service certainly "based" on Welsh M&L in the sense of this category. Indeed Mabinogion#Adaptations lists those three and also the film Y Mabinogi. Perhaps there should be a Welsh subcategory.

The Ulster Cycle is also Celtic, but Irish. If not a Welsh subcategory, then a Celtic one.

I suppose we have many other book articles that would belong in a Welsh or a Celtic Myths and Legends category. Not to mention Arthur--probably best handled by a See also note in a Welsh or Celtic category preface.

Compare and contrast Category:Welsh children's literature, whose preface specifies children's literature created by Welsh people. And Welsh fantasy, which is not so limited. Both contain some articles on works that would fit here.
