Julius Caesar: Dramatis Personae

Yes, it's that time again... time to start another scene-by-scene journey through one of Shakespeare's plays! This time we're tackling Julius Caesar. As always, let's get started with a good, old-fashioned who's who:

Things I learned putting this together:

  1. Julius Caesar has a LOT of random minor characters.

  2. Seriously, there's tons of them. And they all have similar-sounding Roman names.

  3. It's really hard to visually distinguish characters when they are almost all Roman men, who historically were all clean-shaven and, according to their busts, all had identical combed-forward hairstyles.

  4. Seriously, I'm going to have to print this out for reference, and I'm the one drawing this stupid thing.

So... sorry about that in advance.
