hopeful inspiring fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

As with any anthology there were good and bad stories. I especially liked "Memories of Hator", "Prayer", "Im Ageless", and "The Wager".

Content Warnings

Moderate: Animal death, Blood, Bullying, Death, Child death, Fire/Fire injury, and Gore

Minor: Murder, Animal death, Torture, Cancer, Gun violence, Injury/Injury detail, and War

Many stories had cannon typical gun violence with guns being waved around but no main characters are shot or shoot guns. Ep2 "what doesnt kill you": [murder/injury detail] diana recalls killing 2 mythical characters. Medusa is headless. Ep3 "im ageless": [death/war/fire injury/loss of limb] diana recalls her experiences with wwi. Ep6 "without love": [injury detail/gore] We see eros's heart out of this chest. It is mildly disturbing but not life threatening (he's a god). Ep7 "a god with no name": [murder/death/blood] art style is slightly more graphic than other episodes. Warnings are for the god with no name killing many people. Also SPOILER: WW kills him. Ep12 "Espionage": [torture] WW is tortured but not graphically. Ep13 "beat the heat": [animal death] several farm animals are shown in the first panel to have died from an environmental cause. Ep15 "the stolen lasso of truth" [bullying] a high school student is bullied by her peers and siblings. Ep16 "prayer" [animal death] a griffin dies in the first panel. This is the focus of the story. Ep18 "Whatever Happened To Cathy Perkins?" [Cancer] a character is revealed to have cancer but the story does not progress to further stages. Ep19 "love failed" a character joins a cult E21 "Hellzapoppin" [death/gore] a man is in a crocodiles mouth. Reasonably graphic. Ep22 "Beyond the Horizon": [child death] two children drown in a flashback Ep27 "the prophet" [animal death] a deer dies in the first pannel. Non graphic.
