Line 1:
{{
* Pan defeating Typhon. To put this into perspective, Typhon had just [[Curb Stomp Battle|Completely]] [[No
* Hephaestus getting revenge on Hera by making her own throne into a trap that holds her completely immobile while he gives her [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]] and offers to be her best and favorite son if she accepts him.
* Athena coming out of Zeus's head.
* Zeus saving his siblings and uniting them against Cronus.
Line 9:
* The horrific monster Typhon, last child of Gaia and father of many monsters, strode towards Olympus to kill the gods, destroying cities and throwing mountains with his bare hands along the way. He possessed a hundred dragon heads, shot fire from his eyes and was so large his head scraped the stars and his arms spanned the horizon. He first attacked Zeus and easily best him, removing the sinews from his legs, crippling him, until Hermes restored them and healed Zeus. Zeus prepared for their last showdown on Olympus, all of the other gods (minus Athena, who stayed alongside her father) having fled to Egypt in fear. They fought, Typhon wielding fire, Zeus his thunderbolts, creating earthquakes and tsunamis with their blows, until finally Zeus cast Typhon into Tartarus.
** Zeus may often be a hedonistic dick in legends, but that story confirms more than any other why he is the ruler of the gods. When all others fled before Typhon, he stood still.
** Qualifies as a CMOA for Typhon to, who may well be the [[Ur Example]] of a [[Hero
** To put extra emphasis on Typhon's defeat, Zeus slammed Mount Etna on top of him. He literally knocked Typhon from this dimension into Tartarus.
* By the bucket load for Odysseus. Some pretty epic ones are his chewing out of Agamemnon, covering and protecting Ajax while from a wave of countless Trojans while the other man was recovering Achilles's body, and of course the creation of the [[Trojan Horse]].
* The final battle of Achilles vs. Hector. Its an epic [[Combat
* Theseus killing the Minotaur it with his [[No
** It was asleep when he ''started''.
* Hercules solving his 12 Labors. To elaborate:
Line 21:
** Stealing the Amazon Queen's girdle and some golden apples by ''tricking'' Atlas. Remember that Herc isn't big on brains.
* Orpheus descending to the underworld to rescue Eurydice. And he ''almost'' pulled it off too.
** [
* Perseus killing Medusa.
* Sisyphus, whose life and repeated cheating of death straddle the line between this and Crowning Moment of Evil.
