Who is Prometheus?…
Prometheus is a character from Greek mythology who—in defiance of Zeus—stole fire from Olympus and gave it to mankind. As punishment Zeus had Prometheus chained to a rock where an eagle tore out his liver. Each night his liver grew back, and each day the eagle returned to have his meal…
What is this comic?
This comic chronicles the life of Prometheus in the present day.
It features his wife and son, who feel that Prometheus has been neglecting his duties as a husband and father…
…a small, yet devoted group of activists…
…an uncaring S.O.B. who is less than sympathetic to our hero’s suffering…
…a “conjugal visit in progress” screen to maintain our hero’s privacy during his intimate marital moments…
…and an eagle.
So, browse the archives, leave a comment, send me an e-mail…I hope you enjoy my efforts!
This strip is great. I especially Like the one with the flame-thrower.

I LOVE this cartoon series.
Very clever!!!
Even if you aren’t familiar with Greek
mythology you understand the humor.
It everyday humor that happens to all of
us at one time or another.
(aside from having an eagle tear out
your liver day after day!)
Good work,Mr Weinstein!

Clever and witty! Will you be expanding to characters such as other gods and such? Keep up the great work.

Thank you. I’m thinking of concentrating on Prometheus for the time being (and maybe Zeus in relation to Prom.)

Hey…um…..
I just wanted to say something. You have a very interesting side bar. The “casts” image totally goes with the blog.
But um..I can’t view the comics properly in my Firefox. Here is a screenshot of what I see:

I looked at your screenshot, Netty… boy that looks irritating! Maybe your monitor is too small? My screen size is set to 1024 x 768 and it looks okay on my screen (in Firefox). If you click on the comic you want to see it should load by itself so you can read it unobstructed. If I upload them any smaller than I do now I’m afraid the words and facial expressions will be hard to understand.
Anyway, I appreciate your writing and I’m glad you like Prometheus!

Thanks, f.p.–your avatar looks like Prometheus (if he were ever to be happy).
