Netflix's Blood of Zeus returns for an exciting second season that delivers grandiose conflicts, Greek tragedy, and squabbling gods.
, which had a firm grasp on why these tales haven’t gone out of vogue. It delivered a world of myth that showcased squabbling gods and grisly, grandiose battles, finding its own spin on this material in the process.
The story picks up as Heron , a demigod son of Zeus, reckons with the new status quo caused by the death of a certain deity in last season’s climactic battle. Although that previous conflict has been resolved, an ensuing power vacuum has left the world in a state of discord. In response, Heron embarks on a quest that will hopefully restore some semblance of peace, both for himself and the realm.
An essential reason why this works is that this portrayal of the pantheon is full of complex characters, whether they’re with our hero or against him. While there are references towards a larger, future struggle against a prototypical force of evil, this run is mostly focused on flawed people bashing into each other as they attempt to claw their way out of unfair circumstances, right past wrongs, or divine who they are.
All that said, I’ve partially buried the lede here regarding what likely drew many to the first season: big, bloodily animated brawls involving creatures and gods from myths of antiquity. Like in the previous run, these battles are gory and suitably epic in scale, bringing to life fantastical beings that channel the iconography of old legends.
