I've heard so much about the web comic that I had to read this volume. I'm really glad that I did! A modern take on Greek mythology is hardly new, but Lore Olympus is done particularly well. It took on issues in modern dating while staying quite faithful to the original text. Eros' story with Psyche was one of my favorite parts. A lot of pages are purely art and no dialogue, so I feel that I'll have to read it again to fully appreciate the art style.
