At that size I don't think she'd even be able to walk straight. Like, there's an upper limit here, right?
Neither is he with his spindly legs. It's a comic with exaggerated forms.

Honestly, Hades was a way better husband than Zeus could ever be.
Vimavi
And so? Hades abducted her because he found her pretty so we should just say that it is not as worse than I'd she was with Zeus?
clawthewolf
Also, Zeus was her dad, and as such had authority over her
I just said he was better than Zeus, Zeus regularly cheated on his sister lol and sired many children with many women and was also a rapist.
corpofilth
It's sweet that you think Hades abducting Persephone is anywhere near as vile as the shit Zeus did was.
Depending on the versions it often was on Zeus order. As for the abduction, it was just how the Greeks did it. The stock poses for 1/?
Kidnapping and Marriage often being the same in the art even. 2/2

Why are there not links to the other parts, @OP? That way I can give more than one meaningless internet point!

Thanks!.. meaningless internet points delivered! =)
Persephone was abducted and desperate to go back to her mother...
Considering Zeus, his idea of best date is just getting straight to sex
LegoMyEggoLas
Isn't Perephone Zeus' daughter and Hades' niece?
You do realize there’s tons of incestuous relationships in Greek mythology, right?
Ryebread91
Is her mother Gia?
Her mother is Demeter, the goddess of harvest and agriculture. Fertility of Earth
Armored0Titan0
That’s her grandma, but still Gaia.
My bad. Totally missed it said grandma
Ravenselm
I like the idea of Persephone being a goth chick (her name means "bringer of death" after all). Maybe it's the artists take on her 1/
Geezreally
I don't know if you have read Lore Olympus on the Webtoon app but it's amazing! And about Hades and Persephone.
Quigonjinnandjuice
Couldn’t one also translate “bring of death” to “makes death come?”
sevendragonsandababy
Persephone was a death goddess likely before hades was a thing. Ancient Greek poems refer to her like "Dread Persephone", so it tracks
Rannath
Fun fact: persephone likely pre-dated Hades.
LunaLeMoon
Her title mite actully be the dread queen. There are not a lot of stories pointy to her doing anything outside of tarturas.
realbrickwall
I read the backlog. She's dressed like a normal Greek goddess most of the time. She puts on goth clothes for Hades.
Puppiesgalore
Heh don’t we all
/2 rebelling against her mother. Demeter wasn't exactly fond of Hades in the myths lol.
Sirvi
Or anyone I think. She threw a tantrum that nearly wiped all life with a never ending winter. Even turned a kid (though he deserved it)--
into a lizard. Also heard that Poseidon went "rape horse" on her.

I appreciate Hades not being portrayed as bad guy. If we could just get accurate depictions of Zues and Poseidon as petty philanderers.
sirleoiii
I love the fact that the one time he's a bit vindictive is when someone comes to steal Persephone. It's like, you know what, fair.
And one or two of his kids are from Zeus faking being Hades, and Hades raises those kids anyway.
spudpicker
Yeah, Hades did his job well, never made things too personal, and usually stayed out of all the drama his siblings were stirring up.
Check out Lore Olympus, pretty good comic on this.
Immortals: Fenyx Rising
Someshithead241
Now if only they, this artist included, could stop portraying him as the grim reaper/God of death. That would be great.
True. God of the Afterlife =/= God of Death. Thanatos getting his role hoisted onto Hades over and over.
But.. he abducted her!!
there are several variations of this. The one I've read was he was smitten with her and kidnapped her, another was she willingly wandered--
into the Underworld, either to get away from Demeter (who wouldn't) or curiousity, or another where Eros and (I forgot her name) made--
bet with themselves and used Hades as a guinea pig where he kidnaps her. Later on, Eros and his mother back off since Persephone is--
does not like to be (or Hades) fucked with. She turned a mortal female (who they got Hades to cheat on) into a mint plant.
You're vastly, wildly overestimating how low the bar is for the morals of the Greek pantheon.
There are multiple mythos, but the only one that perpetrates that Hades abducted her is the Demeter cult, who isn't exactly unbiased.
Lilly64
More of an arranged marriage. He did everything by the book for Ancient Greece, Zeus just didn't ask Demeter's permission first
Textuality
Which was, as it turned out, a terrible idea, as Demeter had the power to kill everything on the planet if she was mad enough. And she was.
TielKiri
Yeah, Hades and Persephone have like the healthiest relationship in Greek mythology, which is a really, really low bar, but it ultimately-
holds up even to today’s standards, mostly
VibratingNipples
I thought he was gonna to touch her= death
Hades isn't the god of death.
Then why does he look like death?
Christian tampering? ... Btw. https://youtu.be/Ac5ksZTvZN8
People can't seem to understand that he's not.
SickOfThisCessPool
Why is Hades a goth emo teen while Zeus is an old man in a toga?
CorneliusCornwall
I'd rather be in a toga
GravyEducation
Because Persephone is also a goth emo teen, hence the premise and punchline

CatThatsNoLongerCurious3

MCCatCommander
Dont question my fetishes.
AmArschdieRaeuber
He is so old, he ain't got no skin left. Who's really the old man?
whimsicalogic
And they are brothers lol.
Vortexhelios320
Aren't they brothers? And who is 'grandma', Persephone only had two grandparents so it should be Rhea right? So why is she green?
SJBSavageInk
I mean persephone didn't like hades so...I think the kidnapping is the bigger issue than that Zeus is depicted as an old man. Lol
Phobetor42
They're gods, they can look however they want.
GingerLaird
Because apparently he thought women liked beards.
oopsIdroppedmypocketpasta
Yeah, Zeus should be a frat boy.
ColonelColon

If you are familiar with Greek mythology you'll find that those are actually pretty accurate depictions of their personalities.

Marsupialmessiah
I tried the toga and every single one of my employees reported me to hr. 0 stars dont do it
QuiteADapperAsshole
No that seems fair with the mythology
Because Disney
Considering Zeus always get to sex the first thing, the toga let him do it fast
Depending on if you define age by birth of Rhea or expulsion from Kronos's belly, Hades could be considered the youngest brother.
InherentlyWrong
These are the real questions that philosophers should be answering
From what I understand both were considered important. Hestia (first born and last disgorged) is known as the 'youngest and oldest' sibling.
Oddfish
I think that's the first time I've encountered the word 'disgorged'. Thanks!
DukeDarkwood
Friendly reminder: Hades is Zeus's oldest brother (birth order: Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades, Poseidon, Zeus).
gameskilledvideostar
Hestia's the best-ia.
Also, Persephone says "grandma", but that looks like Gaea (her great-grandmother). OTOH, I have no idea what Rhea should look like.
Rhea was the one who married Cronus and warned him that one of his children would usurp him. Zeus and Demeter had Persephone. So... >>
>> That might mean that Hades is Uncle Touchy... Jeez the Greek gods are like a proper deific hillbilly family.
wraivon
It gets worse, Zeus and Persephone had Melinoe.
SometimesISayHistoryStuff
Yeah, but then he got eaten by Chronos and thrown up in reverse order. Making Zeus older since he wasn't eaten... by mythology logic anyway.
They were full-grown when they came back out. They clearly grew up in there.
AsAHistorian
Does Chronos have a time-stopping belly or something?
WarlockWithNoPatron
They probs count regurgitation as a second birth, like when Dionysus came from a slit cut in Zues's hip, or Athena coming from an axe wound.
Those two never had a first birth, though. Rhea birthed each of those five, then Cronos ate them.
Well his name means Time and hewas the personification of time. So. Maybe?
DickMangoes
It's Cronos/kronos, the titan of harvest. Chronos/khronos is the primordial deity of time.
Shit. You are correct sir/madam. Thank you for the correction.

I mean, she was primarily venerated as Queen of the Underworld, so pastel goth makes sense
She is also enjoying what is initially an abduction
Dustorn
To be fair, didn't Hades technically not know all the circumstances?
Alas, that's just how the greeks did it at the time, stock poses for kidnapping and marriage being the same inart. And it was on Zeus orders
DeviousWay
The real question is why everyone thinks that is Hades, Lord of the Dead, King of the Underworld, and not Thanatos, the God of Death.
MaverickTama
Bc thanatos doesn't talk to any of his siblings except for hypnos.
yossarian77
Because Hades married Persephone (after abducting her).
I know... I’m trying to point out the “skull head” is better associated with the god who’s name literally means death in Greek.
