4.0

I liked the movie Immortals Farley well, and when I saw this tie in graphic novel I was intrigued. Seeing the beginning of Kronos throwing his children into the depths and what led Rhea to try to save Zeus was neat. The point of whether she saved Zeus our love for him, hatred of Kronos, or vengeance for the other children. The point being that though her intentions may not have been out of goodness, the outcome served a greater purpose.

I liked the story of how he was raised by humans and how that gave him some compassion for them. A thread of that is shown throughout each of the stories. Seeing how the epic Epirus Bow was made was also a cool point for the book. There are variations between the two (movie vs novel), but the same story is told.
