063 Pygmalion Creates Galatea

So this is a story of a lonely sculptor who could never get any love, but could never find a woman beautiful enough for him. This is a story that some interpreted as petty idolatry, but now see as a fable of true love, this my friends is the story of Mannequin!
Hooray for bad 80s movies! Wooo!

062 Perseus kills the chick with snakes for hair

I kind of dropped the ball and didn't tell you guys the story of how Perseus slayed the gorgon Medusa. It is actually a way more fascinating tale filled with an epic journey to find the tools to defeat the snake haired abomination. First things first though, I want to explain the origins of Perseus (since I did that for Medusa a long time ago).
Impregnated by gold dust, well I give Zeus points for being creative

061 Perseus saves a Damsel in distress

For mother's day I tell the story of how the hero Perseus saved princess Andromeda from the wrath of the gods (which is also a sweet cheat code in Age of Mythology) because her mother wouldn't keep her mouth shut. Anyway lets get ready for exposition!

Whoa we are getting ahead ourselves picture (that happens way later)

060 The war of the Epigoni (Aka the Second Thebean War)

Yes there was a second war against Thebes, but this time it was the sons of the "Seven" who attacked Thebes and they were known as the Epigoni ("The Offspring"). This is the revenge of the Seven Against Thebes.
Vengeance will be ours!!!
