Did Herc ever hold up the world in comics?
Does Hercules have a feat of holding up the earth in comics?
If so was it shown?

Questions thread. The Labors have been mentioned so it could be assumed that other parts of mythology were things he did in comics. I'm almost certain it's never been shown.

The most I've ever seen, is Herc reference that 'labor':
But I, like Sym, don't think said feat has ever been shown on panel. *shrugs*

I actually think he was shown on panel doing it but I think it was him recalling his labors.
Nut I'm pretty sure it showed him with the world on his shoulders.

I've read several variations of the Herakles myth.
In none of them have I ever heard that Athena helped or held the world herself. What is your source?

one statue does not override the overwhelming majority of texts that state otherwise
