I love reading comic books – you should all know that by now. I am also Greek and so I am a huge fan of Greek mythology. Therefore, Hercules is one of my favorite characters. I remember watching Young Hercules starring Ryan Gosling growing up. My crush on him started then and is still going strong (I know I am in good company ladies!). This show aired from 1998 to 1998 and the series contains 50 episodes. I was super excited to recieve this on DVD and have been loving reliving my childhood by watching it. I can’t wait to share it with my girls when they are just a little bit older. For the first time, the complete series will be available on June 23rd (TOMORROW!) from Shout! Factory.

Synopsis:
This prequel series to the smash hit Hercules: The Legendary Journeys explores the dawn of an ancient age of light and darkness as the half-god, half-man Hercules (Ryan Gosling, The Notebook) — along with his friends, Prince Jason (Chris Conrad, Mortal Kombat Annihilation) and Iolaus (Dean O’Gorman, The Hobbit Trilogy) — struggles to find his place in the world and learns what it means to be a hero.
