Google confirms that Beowulf has been adapted into comics more than once and also discloses that there is an illustrated edition of Seamus Heaney's translation.
Currently reading Heaney's translation, I have so far found three short passages relevant to comics:
"...a baleful light,
"flame more than light, flared from [Grendel's] eyes."
(Seamus Heaney, Beowulf, London, 1999, p. 24)
"The hero observed that swamp-thing..." (p. 50)
"'A protector of his people, pledged to uphold
"'truth and justice...'" (p. 55)
