Lore Olympus: Volume Four

More about the book

In the fourth volume of a contemporary reimagining of Greek mythology, the focus is on the tumultuous relationship between Persephone and Hades amidst the gossip of Olympus. The couple decides to take a step back from their romance to address their personal challenges. Hades grapples with a lack of support, facing trivialization of his feelings from Zeus and an unhealthy dynamic with Minthe. He attempts to establish boundaries, including ending his vengeful encounters with Hera, but still feels isolated. Meanwhile, Persephone faces ostracism from her peers due to her connection with Hades and struggles with unwanted advances from Apollo at home. Complicating matters, Ares, the god of war, returns to Olympus, threatening to expose Persephone's dark past and jeopardize her fragile standing among the gods. Despite their agreement to slow down, the magnetic pull between Persephone and Hades grows stronger amid the chaos. This edition of Rachel Smythe's Eisner-winning webcomic features exclusive behind-the-scenes content, bringing the Greek pantheon into the modern age with a sharp, romantic narrative.
