Being an emperor in ancient Rome was a dangerous business. Most of
the nearly 100 emperors from the dawn of the Roman empire to its
fall died violently-often the victims of assassination, battle
wounds or gruesome maladies. A sly work of cartoon history, with a
touch of dark wit, Et Tu, Brute? is an irreverent, illustrated
compendium of the deaths of all the Roman emperors. Here Nero stabs
himself in the throat, Tiberius is smothered in his sleep, Caligula
is stabbed by his own praetorian guard and Claudius is fed
poisonous mushrooms by his wife.
