Idk why Atlas is green but okay. Nice speed read. Didn't go into detail on Hercules's trials (or say they were trials as a punishment). Nicely illustrated.

Story is a mediocre version that mentions a few feats of Hercules. About 1/2 the story is how he gets the golden apples. Not sure about the whole smart/not smart aspect of all this. That was just silly. I liked how it portrayed Atlas holding the sky. Hercules himself I thought could have used more details and better characterization. I have the first 4 books of this collection and even though they are short, I don't feel they are worth my time. Really wasn't impressed.
