However, when the two are separated, it occasionally feels like Hercules’ personality kind of evaporates. The kid is the brains of the operation, while Hercules wines, dines, and throws down with everything in sight. Of course, part of the appeal of this series is the dynamic between Herc and Amadeus. Unfortunately, Hercules is portrayed as a little one-note through some portions of the story. The creative team clearly had fun coming up with these onomatopoeia, with jagged lettering spelling out such hilarious sounds as “SPROY BLOOM!” and “CRAKKAJAMMA!” When Amadeus and Herc are together, the dialogue is as snappy and fast-paced as the action, with the book taking on the vibe of the best buddy cop/road movies. The lettering throughout is phenomenal, particularly when it comes to the sound effects. The humor and excitement bleeds into every single aspect of the book.
