Hercules


Hercules is the stud that went from "zero to hero" this past summer in the movie of his name. He is my favorite so far! If I was animated, I would want to be just like him! Kidnapped as an infant from Mount Olympus, Herc was doomed to stay on Earth forever, having been made mortal. With loving parents (celestial AND earthly), Herc grew up and found he didn't belong. Zeus came to him via statue and told him that he was a god and he had to prove himself a true hero. Herc found Philoctetes, legendary trainer of heroes, and with his help (and that of his flying horse, Pegasus), he defeated the villain, got the girl and saved the world! Not bad for a kid that was picked on, eh?
The voice of Hercules was portrayed splendidly by Tate Donovan.


This page is dedicated to Kelly, because she loves Herc! She's very cool. See the links section for hers!
Hercules is in love with Meg at first sight. It takes her a while, but she finally realizes she loves him too. Can't say I blame him...look at that figure!!!
Hercules had a rough time dealing with the lord of the dead. He even cheats on deals!!!

Holy biceps! Kelly, come look at 'im now!Awww, lookit that face!

Top: Meg and Herc on a date. Is that thing really going to keep her very warm???
Bottom: "Now nouvau riche and famous, he could tell you what's a Grecian urn?"
I have often dreamed of a far-off place
Where a great, warm welcome would be waiting for me,
Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face,
And a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be...
I will find my way, I can go the distance!
I'll be there someday, if I can be strong,
I know ev'ry mile will be worth my while,
I would go most anywhere to feel like I belong...
I am on my way, I can go the distance!
I don't care how far, somehow I'll be strong.
I know ev'ry mile will be worth my while,
I would go most anywhere to find where I belong...

I will beat the odds, I can go the distance!
I will face the world, fearless proud and strong,
I will please the gods, I can go the distance,
'Til I find my hero's welcome right where I belong!
