Olympus Overdrive (Webcomic) | comment |
Olympus Overdrive is a 2013 webcomic created by Oscar Vega and Xellette Stillwell, and hosted by Hiveworks.Max, a 19 year old IT consultant living with his sick mother, is met with a popup ad about being the one millionth visitor of the page and a link to an online personality test. He considers it a joke, so he sends the link of the test to his friend via instant messaging before filling the test himself.Hardly does he finish the test, though, when he gets a package — or more like, a purple statue of a horse. When he touches it, an adolescent boy with horns appears and introduces himself as Hades, Lord of the Underworld. Turns out the two of them must work together — Zeus got tired of everyone constantly moaning about how badly he runs things so now the gods are playing a game to decide who can rule Olympus. The rules? Each god is assigned a human who filled the personality test Max found as well. The god in question will get a "reboot", depending on the answers. "Favourite food" decides what food the god in question will be able to eat while on Earth. "Favourite colour" decides the god's skin colour. "Recent Prized Possession" decides the overall theme of the god. (eg. Max wrote "flatscreen", so the three heads of Cerberus became flatscreens) "Your Desired Height" is how tall the god will become. "Male/Female/Other" will become the god's gender. The god and the human will be connected with a chain at their chests during the night. During unchained hours, the "Favourite song" can be used to summon the god to wherever the human is. Cutting the chain of another duo will give you their powers. Having your chain cut will mean you lose — your god is out of the game and you yourself will have your memory wiped.Each chapter seems to focus on a different character. Chapter 2 introduces a girl named Bong-Cha, Bobby for short, who may or may not be Australian and whose partner is Poseidon. Chapter 3 focuses primarily on the search for Eris and introduces, among others, Alex, a Russian kid whose partner is Hephaestus and Zeus' partner Ellie Jupiter.The comic went on a permanent hiatus in 2015, in part because both of its creators would be working on Hiveworks' upcoming project Sleepless Domain. The comic's artist Oscar Vega elaborated on Tumblr that while he doesn't feel that the story of Olympus Overdrive was well-suited to a comic format, he does hope to eventually revisit it in some form. Since then, the comic's website has been taken offline and removed from Hiveworks' listing. | |

Shapeshifters Do It for a Change: According to Apollo, most of the gods are like this. They go with whatever gender suits them and don't worry about pronouns or any of that nonsense. Artemis, Athena and Aphrodite seem to be aversions, as they apparently refuse to be called men regardless of their form. | |

Game-Breaker: In-universe. Comments made by Zeus suggest he knows where all the other gods were rebooted at, and in what form. In addition to having the game master, Pandora, answering to him, this means that Zeus has a number of advantages that the others lack. Also, Eris has figured out a faster way to the top... | |

Olympus Overdrive (Webcomic) / int_2cfee88 | comment |
Everybody Hates Hades: So far largely averted. Max does consider Hades a bit of a jerk at first, but that's just because Hades doesn't know how to deal with people very well. Comments by the other gods suggest he's always been a bit of a loner, but this isn't portrayed as a negative thing. | |

Olympus Overdrive (Webcomic) / int_6a2ae11f | comment |
Improbable Weapon User: One of the conditions of the Overdrive is that every god must use a weapon based on the item each mortal designated as their "Favorite Recent Possession." This results in some pretty odd weapon choices. Hades uses a hammer with a flat screen TV on the end. Poseidon has weaponized speakers. Hephaestus doesn't fight himself, but can grant Alex teddy bear-themed armor to fight with. Eris fights with eyes. Hermes uses rollerblades. It's unclear what Zeus is supposed to be fighting with, but he's kept his lightning motif. Based on a picture from the cast page, it appears that Aphrodite can fight with the power of cosmetics. Also from the cast page, it appears as though Artemis has a fan motif. | |

Olympus Overdrive (Webcomic) / int_985e118a | comment |
Odd Couple: Most of the god/mortal pairs are this. Poseidon is a Large Ham while Bobby is a Shrinking Violet. Hephaestus is also a Shrinking Violet compared to the Blood Knight Alex. Hades has quite a bit of ham in him as well, though nothing compared to Poseidon. Contrast with Max, who is a down-to-earth Deadpan Snarker. Artemis' mortal, P.K. is very cheerful and out-going, opposed to Artemis' The Stoic act. Artemis even lampshades it, as Apollo and his mortal are a complete switch from these two, wondering why she was paired with P.K. and not Harper. Apollo is cheerful and bright, always with a smile on his face, while his mortal, Harper is just like "Whatever." Aphrodite is a pink bubble of style, make-up and confidence to the point of being vain. Agnes is a Deadpan Snarker Goth who wears all black and looks like a mess in Aph's eyes. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
Olympus Overdrive (Webcomic) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Eris says she's spent quite some time finding stuff the rules don't forbid. Like the fact that you don't necessarily have to cut the chain of another mortal and god, killing the mortal will mean the god is out of the game. Though you yourself can't level up or get their powers. | |

Cloud Cuckoolander: Zeus. He created the Olympus Overdrive as his solution to the complaints he was getting from the other gods, giving them the opportunity to take his place if they managed to win. He does have an advantage, since he's the only one who really knows all the rules, but it's not entirely clear he has a plan to win at this point. | |

Love Makes You Evil: Eris' mortal was a surgeon who fell in love with one of her patients. After his upcoming surgery, he would leave the hospital, and she was afraid of never seeing him again. So she made the adult, rational choice of intentionally botching the surgery and killing him so that he could never leave her. And then she snuck into the morgue and cut out his eyes for good measure. Romantic, no? | |
