Mythapalooza

Four scans apiece from Incredible Hercules #129 and Wonder Woman #32.

Athena sends Herc and Cho to visit the Underworld to retrieve Zeus; the entrance to the Underworld, as we saw in the preview, is in a casino in Atlantic City, and the Erebus, the part they immediately enter, contains all the souls of those lingering between life and death, gambling at a casino until their number comes up and they get to return. Among them...

Seems since those things happened, Pluto's lost any interest in his job and spends all his time on Earth.

EDIT: Now that I think about, this is some kind of meta-hell, because Bucky was never actually dead.

Speaking of Earth, Hera confronts Hebe about her betraying them and helping Herc survive. Hebe insists that since Herc is her husband, being loyal to him should be her first concern. Hera corrects her that her first duty...

I like you, Delphyne, but I'm pretty sure a handgun isn't going to do it against her.

Over in Wondy-land, Diana fights Genocide some more:

Apparently, as Genocide exposits, she was just looking for an "Adam" to help with the whole "depleted race" thing.

Diana gets even more pissed off and they fight some more (this never gets old).

That was a really, really predictable move, but nevertheless...really cool.

Makes sense, given that all Zeus' men were dead.

At least that part of Rucka's run still holds.

A lie by implication or omission is still a lie. I don't recall Diana "Prince" ever actually saying "I am not Wonder Woman" either, but that was still an ongoing deception which probably benefited from the idea that Wonder Woman of all people isn't into that kind of thing.

Speaking of the DOMA, are we going to see any more of Team Dragon, if you don't mind me asking? They seemed fairly well-thought-out for one-off characters.

	We will, and there's an interesting story coming out. As for your other point, I heartily agree, but all I can say is what I always say, which is, "we're going somewhere, I promise." Everything is something, until it's revealed to be something else. :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It better not be "She does love him, but she's trying to distance herself from him and spare his feelings because she can't be with him for some reason." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	While it wasn't a worry, it's good to hear that. (Reply to this) (Parent)
