More mighty Marvel news. As of today the Chaos War is over. There have been consequences.
This is one of them.
Marvel has the announcement.

oh yeah, spoilers.





From the article:
So having saved all existence and ceded his Prince of Power title as well as his fabled mace to protégé Amadeus Cho, will the Olympian Avenger be retiring to a life of even more leisure?

If you answer in the affirmative, you obviously don’t know Hercules; but beginning this April, you’ll have the opportunity to get to know HERC, a brand new ongoing series from writers Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente, along with artist Neil Edwards. As one chapter closes, a new epic begins with our hero settling not among the gods on Olympus, but in Brooklyn, where he will continue battling the forces of evil on a whole new level.





Well, there went the peep show.

I like this. This is basically Hercules, back to where it all began: as a mortal hero.

My personal cannon is that Jean-Paul and Herc had their fling after the events in Alpha Flight #100 (when Mac Hudson died..again) the only problem is it was a night of humiliating drunken debauchery.

Northstar awoke with hell of a hangover. Herc's Olympian Mead packs such a punch that even his super fast metabolism can't shrug it off. He found himself entwined naked around Hercules, along with a pair of airline stewardesses from France, a well known young Hollywood actor, and a perturbed llama looking down at him. He had no recollection of the evenings events, and all things considered he didn't want to. He sped out of the hotel room, and pretended he was never there.

Only problem is Herc remembered everything and thought of it as truly epic evening worthy of comment. Too bad the young Hollywood actor's lawyers (who also represented the alternative religious group he belonged to) didn't see it that way and threatened severe legal action if one word of these events ever surfaced.

So there's a very good reason Northstar does not talk about this.

Well I'm gonna miss the skirt and shirtless look.

But stealing mystical weapons from Ares' armory sounds interesting. Llooks like he's got a Medusa shield, a sword, and a little shoulder lion, as well as some stuff in the pouches.

Hopefully this book is as fun as Incredible Hercules was, sound effects included.

Nice costume on the second pic!

I do hope Herc keeps his godly powers if not his Skyfather ones simply cos I want him to kick Hogboblin's ass.

Why goto Brooklyn and not back to the Avengers?

I only got into Herc this month (hehe) and I can't wait to see more of him in the verse. Just hoping they will keep up the loltastic tone of his solo series.
