Cult of the lamb x Epic the musical
So I’ve seen a lot of these but I agree with none of them, especially the ones with Ratau as Odysseus, mostly because I doubt he is brave enough for this role and probably wouldn’t be able to handle it. So I’m not only going to put what I think each role should be, but also an explanation. I will only be doing the main cast for now but comment or reboot if you want more.
Odysseus-Heket
Not only is she the bravest out of anyone in the game she is literally heartless. I think that it would be interesting to see her go through the journey of becoming the monster that she is today. Not only that but she is also stronger than the entire cast so Odysseus would really be fitting (in my opinion) (The song Odysseus from the Ithaca saga fits best with her)
Athena-Shamura
Humbled by a lightning bolt in the face and nothing else. Who’s to help Heket be a ruthless tyrant than her dear sibling. Athena and Shamura already have so much in common, badasses, warriors and gods of war and wisdom but in this musical they especially fit best since in this at first Athena try’s to make Odysseus more ruthless but in the end she is more merciful and he ends up being a monster. Athena also leaves Odysseus to deal with his problems himself, in the game Shamura doesn’t help or fight the lamb to their fullest (The song Warrior of the mind or My Goodbye showcases what I’m saying clearly)
Polities- Leshy
I imagine Leshy being a happy go lucky lad when he is not in the presence of the lamb. Not only does he blindly trust the winions in Open Arms but he also gets taken out first. Also Heket has the most impact from Leshy dying in the game and in this musical Odysseus gets the most impacted by Polities’ death since Polities gets mentioned in almost every saga (Open Arms is the song for Leshy)
Eurylochus-Kallamar
Eurylochus is not only a hypocrite but he is also the most cowardly out of the cast, he was scared of going to the island in the sky and wanted to run away from Circe. He also betrayed Odysseus in mutiny which is a very Kallamar move. Kallamar is technically also the second in command in the family. (Luck runs out or mutiny are some very good songs to show how he is)
Please comment your opinion on this, disagreements or agreements :)
Yes. Marvelous. Give me 14 more of them!!
OP of the Odyssey comic here; context is that near the end of the story, Penelope requests for Odysseus to move their wedding bed, which cant be done because it is made from a living olive tree, this rooted in the ground.
In the Epic the musical version, this gambit is played to the theme of validating that Odysseus is still the same person despite the 20 years of war and torment (“only my husband would know!” -> So no matter how much you say you’ve changed that much is still true!)
In the homeric poem The Odyssey…She’s throughly unconvinced that this man is Odysseus and pretty upset with how her son and allies are trying to convince her, so she sets up a gambit that only her real husband would know. It’a up for interpretation, but to some, it would seem she thought he would genuinely attempt to move the tree, and catch him in the lie!
Both versions are great in their own way, the contrast was just funny to me, so I drew a funny comic about it. Cheers!
Oh! I didn't knew Odyssey!Penelope didn't buy it for a second 😂😂😂 that makes so much sense, Thankyou!

Penelope's final gambit, you will always be famous, no matter the subtext.
Please someone educate me and tell me what am I missing, because I want in on the joke so bad 😂😂😂
#the odyssey#odysseus#penelope#epic the musical#Epic's version was very sweet and very well executed (and so cathartic!)#But Odyssey Penelope is *so* done with all the bullshit at this point in the story.#Credit where it is due; at this point she's been through a lot.#poorly drawn odyssey#And to top if all off - her own son and one of the few maids on her side are buying into this (supposed) ruse.#This cannot have been the only time someone tried to pull this trick on her either.#Its the contrast between: 'Oh you're My husband?' and 'Ohh *sureeee* you're my husband. Just like the 30 other 'Odys' before you.'#The olive tree bed trick is a great gambit because it really is the final test to verify his identity.#I'm just a sucker for couples who have a secret only they know between them I suppose!#The match each other in will and wit! They will always find each other!!!#Anyways. The Odyssey is a worthwhile read and I highly recommend it. Epic is also a great musical worth checking out.#Reblog

I fucking love the differences between Epic and Odyssey Telemachus
Epic!Telemachus: I wanna be legendary! I want to go on adventures and fight monsters! My dad is the coolest! I'm a bit sheltered and naive!
Odyssey!Telemachus: I am going to hang a dozen traitors so they die slowly and then cut off a man's dick and feed it to the dogs. Please don't make me talk to people
Indeed his father's son! I'm so proud. - wipes a little tear-

"...thus, suffocated by a body quaking with at the beat of his heart, the deafening silence dawned upon his ears. Cold seeping through his veins as if all color drained from his surroundings, leaving ashes behind. Red. Red. Red. Thin yet glaring marks like teeth, gnawing, boring, sinking into his flesh yet nobody else could see. None else could feel the phantom pain that ripped him apart. A reminder of a time he could yet not remember, despite the shakiness that brought to his limbs. And Below him, the visage of what he once was crumbled as that old wives tale rumbled on his ears: You are what you eat."
