Artist's Comments

I don't have time to draw any longer Greek mythology comics right now, but here is a little one page thing.

Yep, that's baby Pan. And his mother wasn't really a goat, she was a nymph. But according to The Homeric Hymn to Pan, Hermes worked as a shepherd while he was dating her, so who knows what really happened? ;)

Baby Pan!! :iconiloveyouplz:
...I think this is perhaps the cutest drawing of him ever. :D

...The timing of this is hilarious, because ~Cowhat-Ninja is in Italy, right now, seeing all these Roman (and Greek and Roman-copies-of-Greek) antiquities, and yesterday she sent me, like, thirty photographs she'd taken of ancient pornography. Much of which involved goats. Some of which involved Hermes. :noes:

Thank you! :heart:

Oh, I love ancient pornography, it's so much fun (well, usually it is)! And ancient pornography with goats... Haha, wonderful! I have seen a photograph of a statue of Pan having sex with a goat, but I think that's the only thing involving goats I have seen.

That particular statue was among the photos she sent me. :XD:

Baby Pan?! Want! I want him! Eeee!
I just love this comic. Pan has always been one of my favourites in Greek mythology (but I'm ashamed to say I know very little about him). :D

Thank you! :D
I like Pan too. He was a very unpretentious god, so he didn't do so many remarkable things. He was quite pleased to live a simple life in Arkadia, where he wandered the mountains, played his pan-pipes and hanged out with nymphs.

How adorable baby Pan is, and fun comic :D

Thank you! Yes, the hymn to Pan says that all the gods liked him when Hermes showed him to them. Half baby, half goat, it's a winning concept. :D

Adorable.
Plus, there's no arguing with Athena's point. The family is pretty messed up. But, with all the crazy stuff Zeus pulls in the forms of other things, I think there's room for lil Pan.
