Avengers Forever (2021) #4

There’s something terribly poetic in the inevitability of events in EPIC. The choices Odysseus is given lead to no win situations. They aren’t really choices at all.
Kill a foe’s child or witness the death of your own. Sacrifice six men or sacrifice them all. Allow your crew to starve or watch as they slaughter sacred cattle.
Sacrifice your friends, your brothers, or give up your last chance at reaching home.
In the end, the result is always the same. He destroys himself

I was listening to "God Games" (for about the 1,000th time, but that's not important) and can't believe it took me this long to notice something. Ares's theme of sorts is a wilder version of Athena's. It's got a very similar melody, but instead of the precise, clean piano, it's another instrument. I can't tell what, though. Ares is the only one whose theme is like that. The others sound very different from Athena's, but I like that theirs are so similar. Ares is basically the unrestrained version of Athena, so his theme being like hers but more unhinged is super cool to me.

I can’t decide if Zeus picked Calypso’s island because he wanted to torture Odysseus some more with the fact this goddess was keeping him here from his true love treating him like a pet a taste of the love he craved but twisted— a sort of tantalization and constant reminder of his sins and what he sacrificed everything for accept he’ll never get it, all in one.
Or he in all his Zeus douche baggery ‘I cheat on my wife because it’s a Tuesday and I’m bored’ magnanimousness was trying to do Ody a solid. And thought living on an island with everything you can ever want and a hot woman throwing her self at you would be like a gift.

God Games really showed how much Athena cares for Ody... because she literally participated in a disco battle with the Queen of the Gods

In my original Athena design I didn’t make her to “war like” because I wanted her to have two forms, one for just typical activities and one more battle ready!

Please gods I'm on my last nerve
Me: "Wow, as a greek buff it warms my heart to see a new telling of Odysseus's tale in the modern era, as a form of a musical no less. It's so good :DD"
Meanwhile you fuckers in every comment section I am forced to bare witness to: "Well Eurylochus actually did nothing wrong it was all Odysseus's fault" "Odysseus gave his name to the Cyclops" "Odysseus should've never assumed a leader's position" "Odysseus-"
Me: "...."
Me: "Come here, yes you there reading this tumblr post who also listens to Epic the musical. Listen to me closely, VERY closely. If you become TOXIC like the percy Jackson fandom can be, like these commenters here, I will PERSONALLY grab your neck WITH MY BARE HANDS through the screen and TIE IT around YOUR HANDS AND FEET like a CARTOON so you will *NEVER* BE ABLE TO MAKE STUPID COMMENTS LIKE THAT IN YOUR LIFE *AGAIN*

Eurylochus got a "I did not survive the Thunder Saga" shirt. So I think Athena should get a "I did not survive the the Wisdom Saga" shirt.
