Publisher Description
George O'Connor is a Greek mythology buff and a classic superhero comics fan, and he's out to remind us how much our pantheon of superheroes (Superman, Batman, the X-Men, etc) owes to mankind's ORIGINAL superheroes: the Greek pantheon.
In OLYMPIANS, O'Connor draws from primary documents to reconstruct and retell classic Greek myths. But these stories aren't sedate, scholarly works. They're action-packed, fast-paced, high-drama adventures, with monsters, romance, and not a few huge explosions. O'Connor's vibrant, kinetic art brings ancient tales to undeniable life, in a perfect fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology.
Volume 1 of OLYMPIANS, ZEUS: King OF THE GODS, introduces readers to the ruler of the Olympian Pantheon, telling his story from his boyhood to his ascendance to supreme power. This title has Common Core connections.

Ho
Love this series. Haven’t read all of them yet (including this one) I love Apollo’s a lot because it’s true. He may be the most divine god but he is also the most human. I love that. I also love aphrodites because I was her for my schools greek was mueseam so whenever I read a book with Aphrodite in it I’ll just be all oh it’s me! Anyways great job on the Series. However, make one on Demeter and one on Hestia. Those two are my 3D and 4th favorite goddess. (Goddess. Not Gods. Difference)
Demeter
Please make a book of Demeter. PLEASE!!!!!!
