Description This is the fifth page in a short sequential art project with (pencils) and (colors).

The series is called 'Olympus Inn,' and the basic premise is taking the pantheon of the ancient Greek gods and transposing them into the modern hotel industry. Zeus and Hera own the place, Poseidon is the pool maintenance guy, Hermes is a delivery boy, Dionysus the bartender, etc. It was a lot of fun to write, and hopefully it will be funny even to those who aren't familiar with all the myths being referenced. I suppose I could explain some of the jokes if need be. The piece is seven pages long, and we will be correcting some minor errors in the very near future.

I love the fish-eyed panels, those worked out really nicely. This page also has my favorite joke, the one about Somerset Maugham's "Of Human Bondage." That joke actually plays across a number of levels, and I managed to work in classic American literature, so I'm quite proud of that one!
