Description
Old movie time again.... watched the 1958 'Hercules', starring Mr America, Steve Reeves.Here Hercules is busy on his lesser known 13th labour - taking all the metal spears in the armoury and bending them into funny animal shapes. Apparently he was a hoot at kids parties.

No, no no- Iole, it's about the technique! The technique! Hands further from the centre...gah, never mind.
Seriously, great job here! Immense talent with an equally immense sense of humour is always a good thing!

Thank God it wasn't the 1970's Hercules in New York... While I'm here Sir Loop of Dave, Fury Kiss Mouse and a Hippy Glue Deer.Β Thanks for the scribbles this year, and I hope Santa brings you a nice sharp pencil for being good.

The one , the only, Hercules. At least in my opinion. Those old sword and sandal movies put Steve Reeves out there like Clint Eastwood was put out there asΒ a bad ass gunslinger. Italian movie scene was crazy though. An Italian Female Vampire had more curves than the race course of Monaco. Great caricature. Your work is on point. .

Good work as usual, Dave! Those 50s B-movies are so unvolontary hillarious!

Iole was pretty smart and capable on her own... just not as good as a demigod at bending metal pipes
Cheers.. and yes, those movies are a lot of fun... an not always intentionally so
