Tiny Hercules

Get ready for legendary laughs with Tiny Hercules! Perfect for fans of Bunny vs Monkey and Dogman, Tiny Hercules is the hilarious debut full colour children's graphic novel from co-creators Jon Lock and Nich Angell.
He's brave! He's strong! He's the size of a jam jar! He's Tiny Hercules, the world's tiniest, mightiest hero - and he's winning his way back to Tiny Olympus, one legendary deed at a time!
Tiny Hercules has been banished to Earth as a punishment for ruining Tiny Zeus's bodacious party. To get home he must complete twelve legendary tasks but it isn't going to be easy - even for a demigod. Crash landing in the peaceful town of Chutney-on-Toast, Tiny Hercules soon spots his first task: defeating a lion!
Except it's not a lion . . . it's actually a cat! Soon, Tiny Hercules is racing across town after the cat and causing chaos as he goes. When the cat's owner, 10-year-old Jeff, and a suspiciously Zeus-like swan join the chase all hell breaks loose in this zany comic book adventure!
