About this deal

We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. No solo es una historia absolutamente espectacular que reinterpreta muchísimos mitos griegos de una manera un poco más modera, sino que se centra en Hades y Perséfone. Now Persephone must navigate the confusing politics and relationships that rule Olympus, while also figuring out her own place - and her own power.

Apollo: Someone kill him already 😠🔪 he's such a piece of shit and how the hell he fucking did that to my sweet Persephone 😠😤🔪🔪 Die Die Die! So I bought the book thinking at least the artwork is different and beautiful capturing women as we see ourselves. The art is gorgeous and different from what I usually read in graphic novels so it just added more to my excitement. I don't usually read graphic novels but my friend who I highly respect raved about this retelling of Persephone and Hades. As my friend Al suggested, the art is very reminiscent of Kyle Baker with maybe a little Babs Tarr thrown in.Setting Greek myth in a modern day society of fast cars and bars, Lore Olympus is comedic and playful with the well-known characters in a way that is fresh and just thoroughly entertaining.

Even though the legend of Hades and Persephone is thousands of years old, you will fall in love with these characters in a whole new way--and you'll never see the twists and turns coming! As one should probably expect, we get to watch the gods be complete pricks to each other and spite one another and scheming for revenge or just pure sport. It’s all very energetic and entertaining, and the modern setting opens up a lot of fun with the characters all having iphones and instagrams which quickly spread all the gossip. Aquelas folhas mais durinhas meio plastificadas, mais ou menos como alguns papéis de foto (quem lê histórias nesse formato vai entender). This edition of Smythe's original Eisner-winning webcomic Lore Olympus brings Greek mythology into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel.Fans who enjoyed it as a webcomic will be thrilled to hold this luscious work of art in their hands. Now I'm sad that Volume One is over, I have no idea when Volume Two is coming out (please be soon, please be soon), and I'm thinking I'm going to probably finally cave and just start reading it as a webtoon because there's no way I can wait for the next volume bind-up. These are the gods of Olympus here, so while it is playful and fairly lighthearted it is also dark and filled with toxic interactions, manipulations and assaults—as one would probably expect but heads up.
