If you know the original culture then you know, well, you know what they couldn't be saying what they were really saying when they weren't saying anything meaningful about Herc's companions. "Funny how Herc had a number of young women lovers and young male 'standard bearers'." Yup, they bore something for him, that's true. Marvel did their best to clean up the myth but some things just don't clean all that much.

I'm going to be writing my own comics and I've got my own version of Hercules that I'll be doing comic books for(based on the Steve Reeves-version of Hercules,which is in the public domain)and I'm doing what DC did way back in the Nineties when the Roman and Greek Gods were actually two separate and two different entities. So The Greek Heracles(the Steve Reeves-Hercules who will be called ''Heracles''for my version)and The Roman Hercules(a spoof and parody of the Disney Hercules) will be two different and two separate individuals-the former a hero and the latter,a villain. The Roman Hercules will be bisexual but my version of the Greek Heracles will not be.

I thoroughly enjoy the Hercules comics I've read. He's a buffoon but always learning perspective and life lessons (despite his considerable experience), and sometimes is very wise or especially heroic. There's also some excellent oddball humour in a lot of his comics, with abstract storylines or quirky ideas that wouldn't seem out of place in 2000AD comic or (occasionally) even a Twilight Zone episode (such as when his friend Amadeus Cho is trapped inside a roleplaying game and has to 'quantum theory' his way out).

His marriage to Hebe in the actual canon mythology that this take is based upon, is the reason he has two sons and with them is named the defenders of Olympus. Only him, and their two godly sons. No one else being needed. He could have kept Hebe and honored that side of the myth; since Greco-Roman times were known to be more open, and Hebe is the goddess of youth, which could have made her more "youthful" IE elastic in mindset. (They do honor the several relationships and canonical tendency to bi sexuality - though I would still argue he's shown female preference) Other than that point, since keeping her in a stable but also admittedly open marriage would have proved him more capable of being the better man than his blood father (Side note: Amphitryon was also Zues' grandson - the guy got around) I would point out that Godhood is not a bloody yo-yo. It's not something that can be stripped. Taken back. Yes, Thor had proved less worthy, more than once, but he's NEVER stopped being a god as far as I know. It's like Wolverine's healing power: You can "turn it off," but it's still passively active. I did like how they wove into play the various versions of the mythology, by saying he might be lying/talking out of his... you know. I'm less fond of the let's repeat the 12 labors a different way. One interesting point; if Order needs Chaos, and Chaos breeds order so they can recognize their truths by the sight of each other, then the Asian Chaos god never wanted to win. It would be very much like Thanos. Bloody genius with all the cards stacked in deck, who only loses because he subconsciously shoots himself in the foot. Intentionally. Can't help being what it is, and isn't supposed to. However that doesn't mean that even if the god thinks it wants an objective end to everything, it actually does. Just a thought.

Well Hercules is currently dating Marvel Boy Noh-Varr in Guardians of the Galaxy. No homo? Uh, YES QUEEN. Our hunky Greek god has finally come out as BI in the Marvel Universe, just like he always was in the original Greek myths.

I'm hoping that Hercules will eventually be in the MCU. With Zeus in the new Thor movie, played by Russell Crowe, it would be awesome if Henry Cavill were too play his son, Hercules. The two had great chemistry together when Crowe played his father, Jor-el in Man of Steel. I'm sure the heads at Warner Bros would be worried if their Superman jumped ship, and became Marvel's Hercules.

Did you like Kevin Sorbo's portrayal of Hercules when it was on TV during the 1990's? I enjoyed the series. But my favorite portrayal of Hercules will always be Marvel's version. I will have to read up on DC's portrayal of Hercules.
