091 Selene loves Endymion, makes him sleep forever

It's time! No it's not Vader time, but another Greek Mythology love story, yay! This is the story between the personification of the moon and a shepherd. Sound like an unlikely romance? Well considering that shepherd had to spend a lot of time looking over the flock in the night it isn't hard to think that the Moon goddess would fall in love with him.

090 Orion dates Artemis, turns out Apollo was a clingy brother

Orion was a giant hunter who can walk on water so much that Jesus would get jealous! Hell he was such a bad ass hunter that he would be hunting Yautja instead the other way around. Hell the Yautja might as well have made their home planet orbit around the star Alnilam! (The middle star in Orion's belt) However, Orion was going to find out that the god of the sun did not like men getting close with his sister.

089 Greek Mythology and Culture - Renaissance Paintings

A new series idea for Moments in Greek Mythology, I look at a few examples of stuff that is inspired by Greek mythology. Then I describe the creator, the myth it's inspired from, and then give my general impressions of the overall work. (In my typical snarky commentary of course, this still is MIGM after all)

Shhhh... Zeus is going to rape you after he finishes painting pretty butterflies
