Hercules #4
SCORE: 60
The storyline in Hercules #4 continues to meander along and it is
starting to annoy me. What is the point of this story anymore? Whatever
villain continues to work under the radar and continues to kidnap
characters. Hercules #4 is no different than the first three issues. In
fact Hercules #4 is even more pointless since this has dragged on so
long. Hercules #4 cost me $4.99. There are twenty pages of comic book
content.
After the comic book content is a page devoted to the next issue, other
Disney comic book advertisements, and a cover gallery. There will be
spoilers in my review of the Hercules #4 comic book. The issues families
can have with Hercules #4 are violence, false gods, lack of attire,
enticement to lust, and more. The level of confusion within Hercules #4
is extremely high.
Hercules #4 starts us out with Hercules and his woman being in Olympus.
There is a discussion about the characters being kidnapped. From there
we find out there is a war down on Earth. Hercules is sent by Ares to
stop it. Why would Ares want to stop it? Later we find out that Ares
does not want it stopped. So Hercules must stop it himself without any
assistance from the one that sent him.
There is a rather interesting and clever riddle in Hercules #4. All of
these characters are mad because they either do not know the riddle or
they do not know the answer. So another character is brought in and he
provides the answer. I actually found that riddle the absolute best part
about Hercules #4. I might even go as far to say that riddle is the best
part of this entire series.
I am not big on the art within Hercules #4. I am not big on different
characters getting brainwashed somehow into wanting to know the riddle
and/or its answer. That is never quite explained in Hercules #4 to my
satisfaction. The riddle is solved and everyone goes back to being
happy. The battle is over in Hercules #4. Then Ares is kidnapped at the
end of Hercules #4. The pattern continues.
