one of the most famous epics ever. "Xerxes" should be made into a new movie by "300" director Zack Snyder. Xerxes rose to power in fifth-century-BC Persia and became known as "The King of Kings" eventually raising and leading a massive army intent on ruthlessly destroying the hated Greeks who killed his father. He wanted nothing less than to become a god himself. The time frame of "Xerxes" begins 10 years before "300" and the story starts with the Battle of Marathon which was extremely difficult to draw as Miller said himself. The lead character of the book and of the possible movie is Themistocles, who became warlord of Greece and built their navy. The story will cover a much greater span of time - around 10 years, and will be very complex, with many details such as the conflict between Athenian naval fleet and the Persian fleet, the conflicts between spies, gods, warriors...
