Synopsis for "The New Labors of Hercules, Part 1"
While working on a new television show, Ty Stone gets the idea to include the real Hercules. Elsewhere, Hercules bursts into the memorial service for the recently killed Avengers, and demands to know why Thor was not included. Iron Man claims they didn't know, he'd been missing for a few weeks, but it's not the first time he's been gone. Later at a bar, Hercules recounts who he is for the lovely female bartender, and his twelve labors, but she has no clue who he is. He gets up to use the restroom, and is attacked by Achelous, who knocks him out and drags him outside to a waiting limo, with Eurystheus inside.
