In the year 80085..

Like the Zager & Evans song from the previous century? One has to appreciate the author for dreaming up all the character names and kinfolk associated. I lost track in what is supposed to be a good story, and can only say no thank you for further instalments.

Twelve Labors

Well, that was an interesting rendition of the Twelve Labors of Heracles. Interesting that Iolus was changed from Jon to Iola basically magically, including the ability to bear children. Not possible IRL, but interesting to think about.

I wondered how his wrath would be handled. As perfectly tragic as possible. And of course Helen was responsible. Is it possible that he got her pregnant? I can't imagine her being okay with that.

I'm assuming Adele and Iola are standing in for Heracles's second and third wives.

Now it seems like next are the Gigantomachi and the Tale of Typhon.

Nice work.
