the son of the king of the gods and the strongest demi-god in the world, Hercules should have it made. But a bungled
kidnapping by Hades' henchmen leaves him stranded on Earth as the adopted son of human parents, and Hercules grows
up with no idea of his divine origin: He only knows he doesn't fit in.
When the gawky teen finally learns who his father is, he must battle a series of monsters sent
by Hades. With the help of his reluctant hero-trainer, Philoctetes, and the magical winged horse Pegasus, Hercules
becomes a superstar and media darling -- but what makes him a real hero is his self-sacrifice for Megara, the woman
he loves.
