Im trying to write a Hymn of Demeter based story element in a story with many characters, but want to avoid possibly being offensive to Greek mythology. I know many comics bend the rules a bit and take inspiration instead of full on adapting the mythos. Any advice on good comics that meet in the middle with this, or ways to avoid this so I don't end up accidentally having similar problems to stories like Lore Olympic. (For reference I have read Plunderland and Theo mania, just if you have any tips I'd greatly appreciate them!
My presphone is already on the more serious dark humor side get shit done side so it's definitely not 100% accurate to the hymn
You'd be better off asking someone who's actually Greek when it comes to cultural respect, that said, Lore Olympus disrespecting Greek myth doesn't really have to do with it being a modern interpretation or taking creative liberties with the original story and its characters, it has more to do with how much it's morphed public opinion and knowledge of the myth both through how it doesn't regularly remind readers that it's fanfiction and its creator who claims to be "better read" on Greek myth on other people (which she very clearly isn't). Even Hercules is frankly more respectful towards its source material than LO in spite of all its inaccuracies (Hercules' name, Hades trying to overthrow the Underworld, Zeus being a loyal husband, etc. lol) because Disney makes it clear it's meant to be purely for entertainment purposes for general audiences (kids and parents!), and you can tell the animators and artists put a lot of work into stylizing a film that was uniquely Greek. Plus the writing and characterizations are genuinely well done, it doesn't feel like it's spitting in the face of Greek myth like LO does lmao Supergiant's Hades and Hadestown also attempt to tell either retold or completely new stories through the lens of Greek myth characters and settings. Even works that aren't retellings like Final Fantasy XIV manage to include Greek myth references and parallels without being disrespectful to Greek culture or myth as a whole.
The real beauty of Greek myth is that it's something that's been retold and re-interpreted into all kinds of works - the stories and its characters are timeless and can be adapted into just about anything! There's always more room for fun and unique Greek myth interpretations, retellings, fanfiction, etc. just be on top of your research and be clear in your goals and intentions with your audience (whether you're trying to do a serious and accurate retelling vs. using Greek myth as simply points of reference vs. writing cozy fanfic of Greek myth material etc.) !!!
So unless you go around calling yourself a "folklorist" or allowing whatever readers you gain to run around calling your work fact, you're likely not gonna cause the same kind or amount of damage to the Greek myth community and its stories that LO has ( ̄ω ̄;)

So what happened to Presphone and why are we blaming Zeus?
basically, to defeat the white titan (altera), all of the olympians combined in the lostbelt 5 timeline, after altera was defeated they separated and the gods wanted to step back from control and live with humanity but zeus wanted to keep his rule over humanity, started basically a olympian civil war and killed all of the rebel olympians and reprogramming the remaining ones to be completely under his control. because persephone was married to hades, one of the “traitors”, zeus made demeter kill her own daughter and it drove demeter insane.

it amuses me to have laura stuck in a loop starting from meeting luci, and dies in different ways. no one has any idea what the fuck is happening. also. she retain everything from the prime timeline. she no sells ananke attempt to become presphone. this freaks ananke out because not in 6,000 years has someone not believed her. and because i still love this theory. laura is Prometheus rather than persphone and she made herself ascend by acknowledging she capable of great things but as a normal person. i’m not sure how to word this.
 so she tries to cycle before anyone dies, this makes timeline buggy.
or or
because cycles can stop and can be picked up again. There's is a chance someone in the future I will rip to them but I'm different and attempt to restart the recurrence. and because laura’s story is tied into the cycle issue 45 laura becomes new ananke and issue one laura is the minivera.
i really wanna write the first one but i have no writing ability.

And Zeus and Hera are brother and sister, so yeah not a very good family, not to mention old timey royalty in a lot of places had A LOT of incest problems, so not a huge surprise Greek gods fall into the same shit 😑
And in some stories, Zeus is the father of Presphone’s child (His grandchild). I just mean, like... I have been super duper fascinated by Greek mythology since I was a kiddo? I love it! But it’s so weird seeing people try to change one thing thinking that makes it better when.. like... no......... it’s still going to be incest, or still going to be dubious or w/e.

The only ending I will accept in this weeks episode is Artemis and Persephone shattering Asspollo's kneecaps, if not that then Hera getting Persephone's record cleared.
