The preview for Incredible Hercules #132 under the cut, beginning the arc guesting the Asgardian mythos.

The full preview here.

I was torn between posting this and Herc's recap-page rewrite of the origin of Thor, but this won out. Driving Zeus around in their minivan, Herc and Athena find themselves under attack by Harpies; mindwiped Zeus, not knowing who they are, has just found out that Athena is his daughter.

Also, not looking particularly brave there, Balder.

	I was quite disappointed when I finally noticed Zeus was next to Hercules instead of in the car. What? He's egging Hercules on and he's immortal so it's not like he won't get better. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Somehow I don't think "pimp" is the right side of that particular relationship. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Did anyone else notice the KRAKKKA HUMMMA sound effect? Some times they effects are the best part of this book. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I think that when they figured out that they could show Sasquatch completely nude by having his genitalia completely covered by his pubic hair, the sky was the limit. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That recap page is comedy fucking gold! And why oh why wasn't Zeus still in the car in that final panel. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Recap page last issue was awesome as well. I am terribly worried how much I like this comic, because for some reason that makes them have bad things happen to them. Make the bad man stop mommy, make him stop! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	That's how Marvel Svartalfar look like. I prefer my Dark Elves in impractically revealing platemail wielding whips with snake-heads. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I... Need to get this. Is the first storyarc traded? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Incredible Hercules: Against the World; followed by Incredible Hercules: Secret Invasion (my personal favourite so far), Incredible Hercules: Love and War, and the forthcoming (in October) Incredible Hercules: Dark Reign. This is the start of a new arc here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I figured. Wich is why I asked about the previous. ~and thanks I'll look it up soon enough. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh my god! Herc's face right before he swings the Jeep. Perfect! (Reply to this)

	Icky thought I must share...If Zeus is filling the role of Hercules' sidekick/irritating companion doesn't that make him a possible eromenos? (Reply to this)

	Aw, I like Zeus like this. I want to give him a cookie... right after punching him in his smug little face. And right before pitting him and Damien against each other in a fight to the death. (Reply to this)
