Lore Olympus: Volume Three

Sarah Sammis

Eros while often depicted as flighty or fickle, is recast in a new light. He's all about consent and is the voice of reason and support for what Apollo did to Persephone. It's a scene that some readers will need.

Reallyyyyy loved this volume of comics. Lots of story development in this one and a little less stagnant than volume 3

I’m hitting these on a book a day pace. Needless to say I’ve been hooked.

I will always have to give "Lore Olympus" that - it is very entertaining. It got me through a whole day of my COVID home stay.

However, I do so wish Smythe had more interesting influences on her takes on mythology than (seemingly) the 2010's internet. But I really enjoyed the episode with Persephone and Eros and spending time at Eros' household so there is that.

The artwork for this just keeps getting better and better.

More Hades and Persephone makes my heart happy 😊

Witness what the gods do after dark in the third volume of a stylish and contemporary reimagining of one of the best-known stories in Greek mythology, featuring a brand-new, exclusive short story from creator Rachel Smythe. "A refreshingly modern and surprisingly poignant take on the Hades and Persephone myth . . . steamy, often laugh-out-loud funny, and emotional."--Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author of From Blood and Ash "It is natural for a King to be curious about his future Queen. . . ." All of Olympus--and the Underworld--are talking about the God of the Dead and the sprightly daughter of Demeter. But despite the rumors of their romance, Hades and Persephone have plenty to navigate on their own. Since coming to Olympus, Persephone has struggled to be the perfect maiden goddess. Her attraction to Hades has only complicated the intense burden of the gods' expectations. And after Apollo's assault, Persephone fears she can no longer bury the intense feelings of hurt and love that she's worked so hard to hide. As Persephone contemplates her future, Hades struggles with his past, falling back into toxic habits in Minthe's easy embrace. With all the mounting pressure and expectations--of their family, friends, and enemies--both Hades and Persephone tell themselves to deny their deepest desires, but the pull between them is too tempting, too magnetic. It's fate. This full-color edition of Smythe's original Eisner-nominated webcomic Lore Olympus brings Greek mythology into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel. This volume collects episodes 50-75 of the #1 WEBTOON comic Lore Olympus.
