Ill.: , Philippe Bercovici (Illustrator), Christian Lerolle (Colorist). Book, Summary : "Did you know that the Greeks almost lost the Trojan War because of a soldier who smelled too bad? That Narcissus was not narcissistic? That Theseus invented the mullet haircut? That Tantalus' torture consisted of dying of thirst in the middle of a river? That during the first Olympic Games, Heracles won all the medals because no one wanted to face him? This album tells in a burlesque way the founding stories of Greek mythology. It resurrects the most famous heroes (Ulysses, Penelope, the Amazons, Antigone, Oedipus, Achilles..), the most terrifying monsters (the Cyclops, Medusa, the Sirens..), the most powerful gods and goddesses (Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Aphrodite..). Let yourself be seduced by the song of the sirens, stroll through the mythological maze following Ariadne's thread.. and your general knowledge will have the muscles of Hercules!"
