Hercules' in Suburbia: New Labors as a Middle Aged Man.
This is the first panel of four that will make up a 22 feet long narrative loosely related to Hercules' story. Hercules performed 12 labors to atone for the murder of his wife and children when he was made temporarily mad by Hera. My Hercules is driven to endless tasks and labors to keep up with ceaseless domestic chores separating him from his wife and children. The second and 4th panels show the strain an isolation on the children, and the 3rd panel will show the Hera, or maybe even the wife figure who directs the task that keeps Hercules so occupied that he doesn't see the effect on the kids. Weeds are getting a foothold in his perfect suburban space, and the tower of pool floats looms ominously over his head, threatening to topple at any minute.
