For Fun
Lore Olympus
A webcomic. “Witness what the gods do…after dark. The friendships and the lies, the gossip and the wild parties, and of course, forbidden love. Because it turns out, the gods aren’t so different from us after all, especially when it comes to their problems. Stylish and immersive, this is one of mythology’s greatest stories — The Taking of Persephone — as it’s never been told before.” Note: artistic liberties have been taken with the story, which do not reflect the themes of rape and violence present in the original myths.
