Not bad. It has potential. The cutesy style with everyone looking like children is not something I care for, but that’s a matter of taste. At least it’s well-drawn.
I’ve been a mythology buff for many a year (especially them Greeks!), and I would like to see a smidge more complexity, and perhaps some mythological in-jokes, but I don’t expect it. This is clearly intended as a child’s strip. Martin the Spartan had a couple of nice touches, though I wistfully wish someone would remember that “The Three Hundred” refers only to the elite Spartan citizens with full civil rights. Nobody mentions the nine hundred servants and armor-bearers who fought and died beside the Big Three-Double-Oh.
By the way, who’s the guy who wears the tin can?
And when are we going to see the Big J turn up?
