March 21, 2023
An illustration based on the Olympian metope of Heracles' fifth labour - Heracles, his tunic partially removed for ease, wields a shovel. Piles of poo are on the floor,. Athene stands on his right, standing uncomfortably, and points at some poo with her spear, saying 'Ew.' By Greek Myth Comix
