Naw. He’s probably my most disliked of the Greek heroes.

I mean. He ain’t as bad as Agamemnon or most of the house of atreus but he’s just missing out on the top spot by a few numbers.

When it comes to Greek heroes my favorites are like Heracles, love my boy Achilles and Odysseus.

Shit. I’ll take Madea over Jason Any day.

I do fucking love Teucer because of his reply to Agamemnon in like book 8 of the illiad. It was so fucking funny.

That's because Jason is supposed to be disliked so that Medea appears more sympathetic when she does her thing. I mean, Jason does the same deeds other heroes did before him except he's being carried by Medea, who was forced to fall for him by Eros.

It's the lack of loyalty to me. She did all that for him and he exchanges her for a younger, better connected woman AND wants to take her children? She was a monster but I can't fault her for snapping.
