HERCULES' Alternate reality lifestyle

About 6 months ago while perusing the new comics at my local comic book shop I came across a Marvel title called "eXiles"  This title is about an alternate reality where characters we are familiar with have a slightly different life.  Well in one case....or actually several really...HERCULES,CYCLOPS and WOLVERINE are homosexuals.
            I don't read the comic and only just happened by it one day because I saw Herc on the cover.  Now...the idea of Herc being gay is not new...legend has it that he actually had a male lover in his mythological adventures. That's a topic for another essay.
            I typed  "Hercules,Wolverine,Gay" into my search engine and several images came up.  So...because it's Hercules related and because it seems to be a controversial subject as well as interesting to some I share with you those images.  Exactly from which comics the images are from I do not know as well as knowing any of the artists or writers names.  That is research I will leave up to you in case you want to go and buy eXiles and read it all for yourself.
            I would just like to say I don't mind Alternate universe storylines and certainly don't mind homosexuality be it between men or women.  I am all for the rights of other people.  I'm also all for writers writing whatever stories they need to in order to sell comic books because they're paid to.  So an alternate earth where Hercules and Wolverine are lovers does not bother me.  Hey they do what they have to do.   I find some of the images are a bit self explanatory and some of them are painfully obvious...
           Anyway...it's all part of the HERCULES myth and legend and the more that is added the better.  So here you go  The Adventures of 

"HERCULES : Keeping it gay!!!"
            

A BUNCH OF HERC PICS FROM THE WEB...

Now , see if you can tell me...

Why is it that THOR and HERCULES can't help but beat the snot out of each other time and time again?

Ancient HERCULES cartoon...

Kellan Lutz? Pshht!!

The Hell is this shit?!! Who the heck is this guy?  The dude from Twilight?  The pretty boy?

I am obligated to see this film due to the fact it is a HERCULES film but if they start having twinkly vampires

and werewolves that turn into actual cow sized wolves I'm leavin'!!!

                           What are they gonna call it...HERCULES : TWILIGHT OF A MAN GOD?
                                                    Bring me the THRACIAN WARS NOW!!!

A few more sneak peak images of Dwayne THE ROCK Johnson...

The Rock gave us all a sneak peak of himself in the gym working hard on his Godly physique.  He also leaked one more image ( on Twitter ) of himself in the make up chair.  The upcoming film "HERCULES: The Thracian wars"  is going to be one hell of a thrill ride...lots of fighting,action,blood and battle gore!!!  The treatment Hercules deserves.

I know we saw this already but...what the hell

HERCULES logos

I googled HERCULES logos and clip art...I saw a lot of Disney's version of Hercules and even saw DC comics HERCULES UNBOUND logo...but comics and cartoons were not my target on this day.  Here is a dozen or so HERCULES logos from Tires to Hot dogs HERC is everywhere.

HERCULES ...a sketch journal entry...

Yeah...I draw funny pictures.  I have been experimenting for the past year with Sakura art pens...the medium point and the brush tip are my go to's.  This drawing here is inspired by one of Bob Layton's covers for MARVEL'S HERCULES : Prince of Power mini series...I may not be making a living as a professional cartoonist but that certainly does not stop me from Bonin' and Honin' my chops...who knows maybe one day I'll need them for something important...lol

More HERCULES images from the CAF community

I love visiting COMIC ART FANS and looking for art.

I just don't look for my blogs.  I'm a fan of comics and comic art.

Those John Byrne HULK pages are just incredible ( Pun intended ) but I am serious.

The Steve Reeves piece is by an artist simply named Calibos...cool name.

Enjoy

Another Herculean post of images from around the web

My favorite is the image of Steve Reeves climbing out of the Jeep on location for the filming of  "GOLIATH AGAINST THE BARBARIANS"   That book or whatever it is by Mark Marek looks interesting.  I'll see if I can find that.

Erica Henderson - Hercules

If there were a cartoon series or even an animated film...I can see this version of the greek hero of myth and legend running around slaying monsters , fighting hordes of enemies quaffing gallons of ale and mead and guffawing at a party surrounded by ladies in waiting.  It would work.  Thank you Erica Henderson for your very cool rendition.
