Herc and Meg's Daughter...
by Natalie (no login)
Okay, so I started me a project tring to Design what Herc and Me's kids might look like. Here is my first attempt at their daughter...what do y'all think?
I'd love to see it in color, especially if you decided to make her a redhead XD I also think it'd be easier to tell that she was their daughter and not Meg; to me she looks very similar to her mom, almost to the point where a distinction between the two is hard. But I still love it!

I once started a Temple To Aphrodite page and I was collecting humourous male/female comarison jokes......the idea was to have a Love Advice Colomn, a Gallery of Ancient Greek Lovers{the true stories humerously written, hopefully, "by" Aphrodite,a comic of Aph and Psyche {Hercules and The Psche Connection} the Aphrodite Secret Store where the females of Herc could strut their stuff{we even had Tempest with a teddy bear tatoo on her butt but dont say you know, ok???}}a real temple where you would "give tribute" by clicking on little hearts or doves or whatever and she would "come to life".....but, the person I was doing this with pooped out on me, and the project fell apart. It was fun to fiddle with, though, someday, who knows???? The guts/balls thing sort of inspired me!!!! this is what we had so far, just riffing.........
Greetings, Mortals!!! {you are mortals, right??? just checking}......

May the gods be with you..and good luck to you in all your amourous adventures... And remember, boys and girls, that .."The course of true love never does run smooth"........or, in other words, "Love is a lot like plumbing..... messy, complicated and usually best left to professionals."
"OK....... maybe I'm telling tales out of school but here's the scoop...{but like don't tell him ya heard it from me, Ok?} One day, way, way back a long time ago, Apollo fell, like, totally head over heels in love with a mortal called Hyacinthus......and, yeah well, true, Hyacinthus was a guy, but...... guys crushing on guys in ancient Greece was Standard Operating Procedure back then so this surprised no one. Hyacinthus was Apollo's Special Friend And Significant Other. He accompanied him in his sports, carried these big nets when he went fishing, [at least...thats what I Think they were for]......led the dogs when he went to hunt, followed him in his excursions in the mountains, and pretty much hung out with him 24/7. One day, they played a game of quoits together, {quoits being a game involving a discus, which would remind you of a big bronze frisbee}and Apollo hurled the discus with a god's strengh through the air. No one knows if it was an accident, or whether Zephyrus (the West Wind),blew it off course{ he kinda had the hots for Hyacinthus too, and he was jealous....don't look at me like that, I'm not making this up} but the discus hit mortal Hyacinthus in the forehead, and struck him dead. Apollo was heartbroken, and being the god of medicine tried to cure his friend, but, the wound was so great not even Apollo could heal it. He decided to do the Next best thing, which was to celebrate his friend in story and song, and when he saw his friend's blood staining the ground {which is like.......ew......} he had a beautiful purple/blue flower spring up from it and called it the "Hyacinth" in honor of his best pal.The petals are thick and curly, just like his friend's hair, and if you look closely you will see marks of Greek letters on them that look just like "AI"........ the word for sorrow.
Echoe and Narcissus
This is like, super depressing, but it is true, so pay attention.......Echo was, like, a beautiful wood nymph, fond of the forests and hills and the joy of the chase, yada yada yada, and she devoted herself to woodland sports all the time. She was a favorite of Artemis, and attended her in all her activities. She was beautiful, and charming and popular.....but if Echo had one failing, it was that she was a major motor mouth, and whether in casual chats or major arguments, simply had to have the last word. One day Hera was seeking her husband Zeus. She had reason to fear he was getting a tad too cosy with the water nymphs, if you get my drift, and Echo, by her nonstop constant talking, kept the goddess distracted till the nymphs made their escape and Zeus could stand there looking innocent. But Hera was not fooled for long......and when she discovered what had happened, she was Totally ticked, and punished Echo bigtime in the meanest way she could think of.{ I think that's called poetic justice...or is it irony??} She told her ....."You shall forfeit the use of that tongue with which you have cheated me, except for that one purpose you are so fond of - reply. You shall always have the last word, but no power to speak first."...and poor Echoe could only do just that.....speak the last word or so that she was told.
Now sometime later Echoe spied Narcissus, a beautiful, gorgeous youth, {a cross between Johnney Depp and Brad Pitt} as he pursued the chase upon the mountains.{Uh...that means he was hunting} She fell hopelessly in love and followed him in his footsteps. She desparately wanted to start a conversation but it was'nt in her power, so she was too shy to do more than trail him sadly at a distance. { I think they call that stalking, nowadays} and Narcissus, one day being separated from his companions, shouted aloud, "Who's here?" Echo replied, "Here!!!" Narcissus looked around, but seeing no one called out, "Come out to me ".
Echo answered, "Come out to me !!"
As no one came, Narcissus called again, "Why do you shun me?"
Echo, answered the question ...."Shun Me!!!
He got angry."Knock it off!!....you're crazy!!!
and Echoe opened her mouth only to say "You're crazy!!!"
right back at him. Well, this got old pretty fast, and when Echoe finally appeared in person he could only shake his head in fear at the bizarre young nymph with the one note vocabulary. He ran away from her, and in her grief she went to hide her love way up in the hills far from the haunts of man. From that time forth she lived in caves till she withered away from loneliness, and her flesh shrank away, her bones changed into rocks and there was nothing left of her but her sad voice, still ready to reply to any one who called to her, and keeping up her old habit of having the last word.
And Narcissus?? Don't worry, he got his. While leaning over a forest pool to drink one day he wound up actually falling in love with his own gorgeous reflection, and he was so fascinated by himself he forgot to eat or sleep or bathe or poop or do anything else, and literally starved to death gazing at the beauty in the water's surface. Someone{I forgot who, now} turned his dying body into a narcissus flower, and to this day the word narcissist describes a totally conceited jerk who just can't get enough of himself......hmmmm....that reminds me....anyone see Adonis lately???
Pysche and Cupid.....etc.
Pygmalion and Galatea

Now the set is complete!! I do hope that the show isnt gone for good, you'd think a Disney signature toon channel would welcome using tons of Disney stuff, espcialy somehting as fun a sHerc.Im real disappointed in "Mickolodeon," I really thought theyd celebrate the Disney legacy, if only for the babyboomers. I cant get over the fact that there seems to be so little interest in the classic Disney stuff. Am I the only one who grew up loving all the old Disney classics?? are there so few people, parents kids, teens, animamation buffs out there that no one wants to see this stuff anymore???
You're not the only one that grew up loving the old cartoons I did as well. I remember sitting up late and watching vault disney.
Heck even the new old cartoons like Rescue Rangers and Darkwing were awesome. Certainly a lot better than the stuff they are making now. The only problem ther is that those cartoons along with Talespin are getting on DVD where as Herc is just being left behind.
Which is strange because well... Herc is growing in popularity. The older he gets the more he grows on people. More and more I'm hearing people say that they like it and admitting that they hadn't at first. So it really doesn't make sense.
Like most beautiful, mischievous Pixies, you really like to have fun. And you don't just think about the good times, you actually go out and make them happen. You have bundles of positive energy to spend on friends and family — something you always do with your personal sense of flair.
Everything about you has your own special touch, it seems, especially your sense of style. In fact, others might consider you something of a fashion diva. That's because while physical possessions might not determine who you are, they certainly tell folks what you're about. Life is your runway and expressing yourself as a fun-loving goddess is an individuality no one can take away!
This light spirit you possess never fails to put your friends, relatives, and even crushes at ease. People find your enthusiastic ways approachable, and when you turn on that mischievous charm, it's all over. So get out there, Pixie. There are plenty of folks just waiting to be touched by your bubbling personality!
Just like the haloed and winged guardians of good, you truly have a heart of gold, sweet Angel. Whenever there's a chance to pitch in, save the day or just make life easier for the people around you, you're the one for the job.
You don't just jump in without planning — you use your angelic head to figure out how to do things right the first time, like only the most dependable goddesses can. Whether brainstorming a new solution to a problem, planning a surprise party for your parents, or lending your friends a wing to cry on, you've got the right instincts, so follow them whenever you can. As natural as it is for you to take care of the people around you, don't forget to treat yourself right, too. The best friendships, and loves, of a lifetime tend to blossom when you become your own guardian angel.
So don't listen to those who say nice girls finish last. People have always seen you as a goddess of thoughtfulness and good intentions, and it hasn't slowed you down a bit. All in all, Angel, you've got it made with your glowing attitude and ability to see from on high. So get out there and change the world!
Kyria, you're Siren! Like the beautiful sea mermaids who've swum before you, Siren, you certainly have a way of drawing people in. Whether wooing a crush with your alluring voice or impressing someone with your unique take on the world, you're sure to captivate more than your share of audiences.
It must be the balance between your glittering personality and your individual style that keeps friends and family enamored by your presence. From being able to predict next season's "it" color to pairing leopard print with plaid before it hits the pages of Vogue, people see you as a fashion goddess. You may not want to admit it, but you're part trendsetter and people look to you for direction.
Of course, you know there's more to life than shopping for the latest adorable accessory. You pursue success in all aspects of life — from offering creative insights at work to running marathons. You have big dreams, Siren, and by keeping them in sharp focus, you're sure to come out a winner.
ROLP!!!!! what are they doing to my Herkie!!!!!!!!?????
by Tara (no login)
ya know I see this again and again, the best artists are the porn guys, which, damn, means you can never really use their work!!!!!oh, if only he would use his powers for good instead of evil!!!!!!
when they start doing serious porn of you its an indication you're getting popular, and well known enough to have fun sexually dissing. OK, Im sure Disney doesnt see it that way, but Ive noticed if you go to toon porn sites{which, uh, of course I dont!!}ahem,cough cough, all the hottest toons have the most porn. Including the Proud family. Ew.
ctually, kidding aseide I do check out the porn toon sites for Herck stuff because I can frequently utilize stuff therem clean it up and have a nice pic.{Runs back to re examine Herc and Aladdin. maybe I can dobe shop an icecream cone in there somewhere...........}
its gonna be real tough to put an icecream cone in there...hhhhmmmm a microphone would make more sense, he lookslike hes singing a Bruce Springsteen song.
.....its such a waste....plus, to be honest, they rarely think up really funny porn ideas....that pic is on model perfect, but, aside from being disgusting its not particularly funny. Porn people have very poor senses of humour....and the more agonizingly detailed the porn is, the less funny it gets.Sexy pics can be hilarious and even cute and a bit of a turn on{like the pic of Hades yanking Aphs dress off in our Hades art collection, thats a cute pic. {And ya know what??? I cleaned that up like *crazy,* leaving just one soft little rosy nipple to puntuate Hades mischiviousness.... that original pic was totally topless with huge protruding red tits, the dress was apart and Aph had a gigantic pink gooey dripping vulva, all spread apart and trimmed with a huge muff of hair.Hmm....well...she IS Greek, after all. I really feel sorry for guys, being so obsessed with female body parts must be a terrible disadvantage when youre trying to get anything done. }...Anyway....this Herc pic is....ew. Brilliant...but ew. Maybe hes really an ex Disney animator getting back at the company.
I've seen this pic before...and it's by a guy who usually draws things from Final Fantasy and such.
The things you find whilst searching around on deviantart. I found a pic of Aladdin, and the guy said that was all he could post, because the Herc section would be catagorized as Porn. All he had to say was Herc section...and my curiousity was peeked. So...I went to his blog...and this is what I saw...and I left...very much disturbed...
True...he did say it was porn...but it was Herc too..and I want to see ALL THINGS HERC. Even if it's porn.
lol, my mature filter was on so it was banned....so I assumed it was naughty{which made me wanna see it twice as much}......but its just a straight modest anatomy shot....wow, whatta narrow minded filter system!!!!!...anyhoo...the talent you find on the Internet is mind boggling.I LOVE IT!!! and will ask permission to stick it in the archives as should Nat, it deserves a wide venue.
of course, that would make ME look even worse, so its probably better he's shaped like Lou Costello.Beutifully done, though, I cant get over how perfect it is.
I asked his permission to use this pic on my site somewhere...I need this pic on my site!!! It is like...the Holy Grail of Herc Shots! And I agree with you...there is really nothing "naughty" about this pic at all. I mean...it's the human body people. How easily we forget that we were all meant to walk around naked. It's not like it's porn. It's the human Boday...AND IT'S HOT!
I love that word. I don't think I have a Porn Filter, because no matter what happens, my little sister ALWAYS manages to stumble onto every poron site on the web. She looks for pics of princess Jasmine...BAM!!!...Naked Women! She then proceeds to run away from the computer, eyes covered, yelling "NATALIE, NATALIE....FIX IT!!!"
they made these horrible brain dead kiddie shows back in hte 70s????Like the Banana Splits?????
believe it or not...I found a site of Sid and marty Kroft failures.....which is an oxymoron if I ever knew one....they were frequently accused of using drug imagery in their productions and know you know why....those guys must have been taking it in both arms at the time.
