Abstract Dubois discusses the exhibition, ODYSSEY to the Origins of Blake and Mortimer at the Belgian Comic Strip Center / Comics Art Museum in Brussels. The exhibition presents only original material, and a majority are unpublished ones. Six themes make up the exhibit: "Under the Auspices of the Gods," "A Modern Homer," "Theater of the World," "The Death Ray," "Unknown Earth," and "The Eternal Return." The ODYSSEY exhibition considers "The U Ray"'s comic strip origin, as well as its genesis from the angle of the myth and the great stories of antiquity, especially Homer's Odyssey.
