I fucking love the differences between Epic and Odyssey Telemachus

Epic!Telemachus: I wanna be legendary! I want to go on adventures and fight monsters! My dad is the coolest! I'm a bit sheltered and naive!

Odyssey!Telemachus: I am going to hang a dozen traitors so they die slowly and then cut off a man's dick and feed it to the dogs. Please don't make me talk to people

Have you seen this Guardian article? I'd love your thoughts on the last two paragraphs!

https://amp.theguardian.com/technology/2024/dec/21/were-figuring-out-cool-ways-of-storytelling-how-tiktok-is-changing-the-way-we-watch-musicals

Fascinating article, but HOLY SHIT?

I KNEW WE WERE GETTING A GAME, BUT THREE?? AN ANIMATED MOVIE AND A STAGE SHOW??

If we get all of these it would be beautiful- (I wonder which High Level Company?? I’m nervous???) Also I NEED the stage adaptation- I’m gonna cry?

is it bad i think jay is nerfing the newer sagas so bad by cutting some of these songs. and maybe its a little early to say this but. like the one cut song with calypso where ody seduces her so he can build the raft, that would’ve been perfect to establish their relationship AND his character as a trickster. and you’re telling me he was there for seven years and we only get 2 songs?? also, i’ve noticed a lot of the cut songs establish context and worldbuilding that the newer songs lack; the vengeance saga reallyy bothered me with how little context there was. there was no way to tell what was happening without watching the animatics. in the end it’s up to the creator but i feel like the recent sagas lack something. anyways thanks for coming to my ted talk i love epic the musical

as much as i enjoy the blorbofication of homeric greek heroes i feel as though there is a point where it’s just not that character anymore. there’s such a rich history of literature that it should be really easy to understand these characters to their fullest but somehow i see takes that i just. what do you mean telemachus is wholesome. the boy that murdered a whole room of men with his father. wholesome. and it just makes me sigh. must a character be morally right or pure to be loved? why can we not love a character for the traits that make him flawed? why must we strip these literary figures of their crimes to like them? is the point of literature not to experiment with cultural ideals and morals?

PART 1 . I really love how dramatic Odysseus and Poseidon's encounter is in Epic 🌊

I wanted to see how a musical would look adapted into a comic...So part 2 will come out very soon 👀
