Description

(Greek Mythology VS Chinese Mythology)

Wiz: Hercules, The Greek God of Strength.

Boomstick: And Sun Wukong, The Chinese Monkey King from Journey to the West.

Wiz: Before we had amazing movies, tv shows and video games… we had mythology as our inspiration. There have been many ancient and historical history behind them, but Greek and Chinese mythology are some of the most legendary ones with iconic warriors from their respective pantheons.

Boomstick: He’s Wiz and I’m Boomstick.

Wiz: And it’s our jobs to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win… a DEATH BATTLE.

Hercules belongs to ©Greek and Roman Mythology.
Sun Wukong belongs to ©Chinese Mythology.

• The connections between Hercules and Sun Wukong are that both are mythological heroes with unique births (Hercules is a demigod and Sun Wukong is born from a supernatural rock) who became enemies with gods and committed bad deeds (Hercules killed his family and Sun Wukong constantly tricked the gods), leading to them redeeming themselves by going on a great quest (Hercules completing his 12 labours and Sun Wukong going on a journey to the West to gather the Buddhist sutras, respectively), that ultimately let them ascend to the highest level of godhood when completed (Hercules ascended to Olympus and Sun Wukong attained Buddhahood). Both have also been inspired by other gods from different mythologies (Hercules is the Roman equivalent of the Greek Heracles while Sun Wukong may have been inspired by Hanuman from Hinduism according to scholars).

• Both are also extremely influential and have inspired many characters as well as appearing alongside one another in many other "Gods" related media such as SMITE.

• Other notably influences are:
- Hercules’ Influences are:
Disney's Hercules
Marvel's Hercules
Fate/stay night's Berserker
Record of Ragnarok's Heracles
- Sun Wukong’s Influences are:
Lego Monkie Kid's Monkey King
RWBY's Sun Wukong
Pokémon's Infernape
Dragon Ball's Son Goku, who was inspired by Sun Wukong
