Now with words!
The preview for next week's Incredible Hercules: Assault on New Olympus Prologue has arrived, and, unlike the approximately 50 billion previous images, his time there's stuff to read.

The recap:

And the rest.

Comments:

- Cover: I like that they're keeping the title-design that premiered with Albuquerque's covers; it's nice and distinctive. Not sure about the placement of the "also featuring" part, but whatever.

- Perhaps the deaths of Sharra and K'ythri are meant to show why the Shi'ar Empire took such a big fall lately (similar to how the deaths of Kly'bn and Sl'gr't crippled the Skrulls).

- Seems Hera took advantage of Zeus' death/rebirth to play the field, now that their marriage could be said to be over. Good for her, I guess. Similar to past questions about Delphyne, what do Typhon's snakes do while they're in bed?

	I would love Greg Pak to write a Shazam title for DC. Herc's book should be the template for it. The Incredible Hercules is one of the most entertaining books on the market, it stars a super-hero and takes place in normal 616 MU and it's fun! Is that so hard? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	If you were picking just one of the writers, I think Van Lente contributes more to the atmosphere (particularly the dialogue), based on their solo writing. (Reply to this) (Parent)
