With the Lion of Olympus in the grave, the heroes of Earth (and an elf!) gather to pay tribute to his memory. I liked the tributes, which are a decent mix of recalling important past stories and new anecdotes. In the former category, both Thor and Bruce Banner recount some of his most significant achievements, and Namor talks about Herc snapping him out of a self-pitying funk (by punching him) in the Stern Avengers era.

In the latter, Thor likewise supplies a new story about a merry adventure he and Herc had that involved out-drinking some giants, and then getting laid with the giant-women. The humourous centrepiece, of course, is a tribute to Hercules' sexual prowess from Black Widow, Namora, Snowbird, and Alflyse (whose "twenty-eight graphic minutes" description of "the Elven Tickler, and [Hercules'] mastery thereof" leaves Wolverine, Namor, and Fandral speechless, and Thor smiling). Also, Hercules apparently slept with Northstar, a nice, if brief, acknowledgement of his bisexuality in the original stories that has mostly been omitted from contemporary adaptations.

The backup with the Agents of Atlas is written by Paul Tobin this time (between him and Paul Cornell in Avengers vs. Atlas, it's kind of nice to see different creators take a crack at the characters), and likewise balances humour and sentiment rather well, as Venus and Namora tour the world to evaluate Hercules' holdings on request from Athena. I really like the idea that Herc owns all this stuff, but never really paid much attention to it; and all the houses he gave to his ex-girlfriends.

While I'm not the biggest fan of Ariel Olivetti, his art here is decent stuff, though I'd rather have seen Reilly Brown (who does the backup) draw it all (Brown's work here is a nice teaser for the upcoming Prince of Power miniseries).
