"By connecting our modern heroes to the archetypes of ancient myth, Peter Meineck’s marvelous book bestows thrilling contemporary resonance upon those bygone legends." -Christopher Markus, coscreenwriter of Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame
What connects Dionysus, the ancient Greek god of transformation, and Spider-Man, a modern-day superhero?
Since its inception, Marvel has created-in comics and on the silver screen-a vast, intricate universe brimming with superheroes and superhumans. Yet Marvel exists in a much larger mythological tradition, one that dates back to the ancient Greeks and their tales of gods and heroes.
Professor of Classics Peter Meineck embarks on a captivating pilgrimage through ancient Greek mythology through the lens of some of Marvel’s most iconic characters, including Captain America, Wolverine, and Black Widow, and traces their lineage to the dawn of human culture. Some connections are astounding and eye-opening, like Black Panther’s ties to the legend of Atlantis and Daredevil’s relationship to the mighty Herakles, while others are uncanny in their resemblance. What, for example, do Scarlet Witch and the sorceress Medea have in common? As grieving mothers cast out from society, quite a lot, actually.
As Meineck reintroduces ancient figures like Achilles and Odysseus, he demonstrates how themes that appeared in the likes of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey continue to emerge in our stories today. He explores why these tales endure and how they have shifted to reflect society’s changing values. Through his endeavor, one important question arises: What do our modern myths say about us?
A fascinating and entertaining read, Tony Stark, Odysseus, and the Myths Behind Marvel is a rollicking journey from the legends of old to the pop-culture stories of today.
