Think you know the story of Hercules? You may well be mistaken. His true origins are exposed... and compared to the Disney movie.

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
