OMG I can see the lower left hand happening, from the earnest playful jabs in the chest to waving the torch in the air to mention something or other. XD Total awesomeness.

You can't blame Hep. He just wants the best for his son. HE does look very smart and heroic, as described in the pic. Awesome job all around!

As always, Ms. Romantic Comedian, a very detailed and well-thought out character design. I especially like how you made Heph sort of a manly-man to counter his wife's overt feminine-ness, as well as create conflict with his somewhat "less than manly" son, Cupid. Yay family dynamics!
I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to add a bit to your interpretation. You see, in mythology, the baby Hephaestus was cast down from Mt. Olympus by Hera in one of her jealous rages. This act crippled the demi-god's legs, so he compensated by developing his upper body strength, working as the forger of Zeus's lightning bolts in the fires beneath Mt. Olympus. From a psychological standpoint then, your version of Heph could also be compensating for his physical limitations with his "man's man" personality. I know your works are largely comedic and humorous in nature, but this detail might be something you want to consider, as part of who we are stems from how we deal with our own shortcomings (perceived and otherwise).
Sorry about that spiel--my fault for being both a psych student and lover of mythology, I guess. Please do with my comments whatever you will, because they're merely observations, not criticisms or crucial suggestions on what you SHOULD do. As I said in the beginning, your character is well conceived and thought out as he is--I was just musing on a way of enhancing and adding on to that.
Once again, great job with yet another original character. Keep up the good work!

I understand where you're coming from, and I agree that it should probably be one of those "unspoken understandings" that people have for particular characters. I appreciate your receiving and considering my comments--I hope it didn't seem like I was trying to push anything on you, because I wasn't. Thank you again.

All I can say is don't argue with a man with a blow torch.

Ah, yes. Censoring the nasty Greek stuff (like exactly HOW certain gods were related...such as Zeus and Hera o_o) and replacing it with stuff the kiddies can handle. You perhaps pull it off better then Disney did in Hercules.

Now onto Anti-Aphrodite, Anti-Hephestus etc. You're almost done here. Eh, I'd rather prefer to stick with the original mythos with a dash bit of FOP.
