Plot Summary

 HERCULES AND AMADEUS CHO DIE!!!
We heard that cheap death sells comics, and we're more than happy to oblige. Though seriously, if you had to plunge into the UNDERWORLD and bring back Hercules' slain father ZEUS to counter Hera's power, could you think of a better plan? And come to think of it, have you ever noticed how... impermanent death is in the Marvel Universe? Well, while hobnobbing among the most famous Marvel deceased over the last few years, Herc and Cho learn the terrible secret why -- and why PLUTO, Lord of the Dead, is fighting-mad about it!

     *** Some Spoilers ***

    After a "cleansing" in the waters of the Jersey shore, Hercules Amadeus Cho enter hell...through a casino!?!  Apparently Pluto has a thing for riches and gold.  Athena sends them there to bring back Zues.  As they travel through the casino with their guide the fallen New Warrior Aegis.  Things get hairy when Cho is having too much "luck" counting cards at the Blackjack table.  Hera encounters the Olympus Group after throwing her daughter Hebe from a skyscraper.

    I haven't read the last few issues, but the recap page was enough for me to understand what was going on. The story was good and there were some funny moments as well, including Herc using a 'Men In Black' movie quote.  The art team of Ryan Stegman (I haven't seen his work before) & Terry Pallot was solid.

    I'm looking forward to the next issue.
