Unlikely Hero Heracles

The Greek myths of Heracles does not fully match up to the Disney hero, Hercules. Heracles is seen to be a bad person a lot of the time. He is a murderer. Heracles killed his music teacher, wife, and several others. He had a really bad temper with no control over it. It was also explained how he was given fifty girls, getting one each night, while he was traveling. Although, he gloated about taking them all in one night. Heracles was harsh and brutal. This myth does involve very compelling and interesting elements that make for a great story. Although, it is not family friendly, so of course, it has to be heavily tweaked to fit Disney standards.
