WELL?

ZEUS, KING OF THE
GODS OF THE GREEKS,

WRITE IN THE ASHES SO
THAT I MAY READ THE FUTURE.

I SEE...

A GREAT TREE AT THE
END OF THE WORLD,

AND IN ITS BRANCHES, THERE HANG
THE SKULL AND THE SKIN OF A RAM.

THEY GLEAM AND SHINE, FOR IT IS A
PRIZE OF THE GODS, A GOLDEN FLEECE.

WE HAVE NO TIME FOR RIDDLES
AND MYSTERIES. TELL ME OF TONIGHT.

PELIAS, YOU WILL
CONQUER TONIGHT.

YOU WILL OVERTHROW
THE KINGDOM OF THESSALY.

YOU WILL KILL THE KING,
ARISTO, AND WEAR HIS CROWN.

YOU WILL DO ALL THESE THINGS WITHOUT
FEAR OR WOUND BECAUSE ZEUS COMMANDS IT.

IF I AM PROTECTED BY ZEUS,

I WILL HAVE NO NEED OF THIS.

I WILL LAY IT ON THE FIRE AS A
THANK OFFERING TO THE GODS.

PELIAS,

IT IS ALSO FORETOLD THAT, ALTHOUGH
YOU WILL WIN THE THRONE OF ARISTO,

YOU WILL, WHEN ZEUS ORDAINS,

LOSE IT TO ONE OF
ARISTO'S CHILDREN.

THEN ARISTO WILL HAVE NO
CHILDREN. HE HAS THREE, PELIAS:

TWO DAUGHTERS,
PHILOMELA AND BRISEIS;

AND A SON, JASON.

THEN TWO DAUGHTERS AND A SON
WILL DIE WITH THEIR FATHER TONIGHT.

HERA, QUEEN OF GODS, PROTECT
THIS CHILD, MY SISTER PHILOMELA.

AND IF I, BRISEIS, AM WORTHY,

TAKE ME INTO YOUR PROTECTION.

ARE YOU BRISEIS, THE
DAUGHTER OF ARISTO?

BE SILENT! SHE IS PRAYING...

FOR HER SISTER, AND FOR
HER MURDERED FATHER, ARISTO.

- ARE YOU A PRIESTESS?
- I SERVE THE GODS.

- THEN TELL ME, HAS BRISEIS
CALLED UPON THE GODDESS HERA?
- SHE HAS.

AND HAS THE GODDESS
HEARD HER PRAYER?

YES.

THEN PRAY FOR ME.

IT IS THE WILL OF ZEUS.

IT IS NOT THE WILL OF
ZEUS. IT IS YOUR WILL.

ZEUS HAS GIVEN YOU A KINGDOM.

THE REST WILL BE YOUR OWN DOING.

THE GODS ABANDONED YOU, PELIAS.

A ONE-SANDALED MAN SHALL COME,

AND NO GOD SHALL
PROTECT YOU FROM HIM.

A ONE-SANDALED MAN?

THE CHILD WHO HAS
ESCAPED YOU: JASON.

THEN WHY WAS I NOT TOLD
THE WHOLE PROPHESY?

WHY DID ZEUS DRIVE
ME TO KILL THIS GIRL,

WHEN THE ONLY ONE I
NEEDED TO KILL WAS JASON?

ZEUS CANNOT DRIVE MEN
TO DO WHAT YOU HAVE DONE.

MEN DRIVE THEMSELVES TO DO SUCH
THINGS, THAT THE GODS MAY KNOW THEM...

AND THAT MEN MAY
UNDERSTAND THEMSELVES.

THE KILLING OF JASON
WOULD DO YOU NO GOOD.

KILL JASON, AND
YOU KILL YOURSELF.

ZEUS, MY GODLY HUSBAND,

DID YOU, FOR SOME REASON, ORDER THE
PROFANATION OF MY TEMPLE IN THESSALY?

THAT WAS ENTIRELY
THE FAULT OF PELIAS.

NOT CONTENT WITH WINNING THE
THRONE OF THESSALY, AS I HAD WISHED,

HE TRIED TO AVOID LOSING
IT, AS I HAVE COMMANDED.

I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE BEEN
INSULTED, MY DEAR, BUT BE CONTENT.

THE BOY JASON HAS ESCAPED.
HE WILL AVENGE YOU. HOW?

YOU MUST KNOW BY NOW I NEVER
ARRANGE EXACT AND PRECISE DETAILS...

AND BECAUSE YOU WERE NEITHER EXACT
NOR PRECISE, A YOUNG GIRL WAS KILLED,

AND MY TEMPLE WAS PROFANED.

I WANT TO HELP JASON.

NO. YOU MAY HELP THE INFANT
PHILOMELA IF YOU WISH; SHE'S A GIRL.

THE REST IS MAN'S WORK.

NO. I WANT TO HELP JASON.

AS YOU WISH.

HOW MANY TIMES DID ARISTO'S
DAUGHTER BRISEIS CALL UPON YOU?

BY NAME?

FIVE. WELL, THEN YOU CAN
HELP HER BROTHER FIVE TIMES.

FIVE TIMES ONLY YOU CAN
HELP HIM TO OVERTHROW PELIAS.

AND THAT IS MY FINAL WORD.

IT WILL BE 20 YEARS BEFORE
JASON BECOMES A MAN...

OH, AN INSTANT OF TIME
HERE ON MOUNT OLYMPUS,

BUT A LONG 20 YEARS
FOR KING PELIAS.

HE CAUTIOUSLY TRAVELS
THE ROADS OF THESSALY.

YES, PELIAS, YOU HAVE HAD
YEARS OF WATCHING AND WAITING...

FOR THE MAN WHO
MUST COME TO KILL YOU:

THE MAN WITH ONE SANDAL.

I OWE YOU MY LIFE.

THAT WAS AS GOOD A WAY
TO FORD A RIVER AS ANY,

BUT I SEEM TO HAVE
LOST A SANDAL IN DOING IT.

- WHERE ARE YOU TRAVELING?
- TO THE PALACE OF THE KING.

- PELIAS?
- PELIAS OF THESSALY.

THEN I CAN PUT YOU ON YOUR WAY.

BUT FIRST, YOU MUST ACCEPT
THE HOSPITALITY OF MY CAMP.

COME.

♪♪

BE SEATED.

♪♪

YOU HAVE NOT YET
TOLD ME YOUR NAME.

I AM JASON, THE LAWFUL
KING OF THESSALY.

ONE OF MY FATHER'S SOLDIERS
RESCUED ME AND BROUGHT ME UP IN EXILE.

NOW I'VE RETURNED
TO CLAIM MY KINGDOM.

I HAVE WAITED FOR
YOU FOR 20 YEARS.

AND IN THAT 20 YEARS, PELIAS
HAS TURNED MY KINGDOM...

FROM THE PRIDE OF GREECE
TO A SAVAGE, EVIL LAND.

I SHALL NEED YOUR HELP.

WHEN YOUR FATHER DEFENDED HIS
THRONE, NO MAN FOUGHT HARDER THAN I.

THIS TIME, IT WILL NOT BE
ENOUGH TO FIGHT. I COULD FIGHT.

I COULD FIND
PELIAS AND KILL HIM,

BUT THE PEOPLE NEED
MORE THAN A LEADER.

THEY MUST BELIEVE THE GODS
HAVE NOT DESERTED THEM.

- THEY NEED A MIRACLE.
- AND WHERE WILL YOU
FIND THIS MIRACLE?

I HAVE HEARD THERE IS A TREE
AT THE END OF THE WORLD...

WITH A FLEECE OF GOLD
HANGING IN ITS BRANCHES.

I HAVE HEARD THIS
TOO. SO HAVE MANY MEN.

THEY SAY IT IS A
GIFT OF THE GODS.

IT HAS THE POWER TO HEAL, BRING PEACE
AND RID THE LAND OF PLAGUE AND FAMINE.

IF I COULD FIND THIS PRIZE
AND BRING IT HOME TO THESSALY,

THEN IT WOULD INSPIRE THE PEOPLE,
WIPE OUT THE YEARS OF MISRULE.

THEY WOULD KNOW THE
GODS HAVE NOT ABANDONED

THEM. MY LAND WOULD
BE RICH AND STRONG AGAIN,

AS IT WAS BEFORE THIS TYRANT
PELIAS MURDERED MY FATHER.

JASON, BE ADVISED BY ME.

FIRST, SEARCH FOR
THIS GOLDEN FLEECE.

DO NOT REVEAL YOURSELF TO PELIAS,
BUT BUILD A SHIP AND FIND A CREW.

AND WHEN YOU HAVE THIS
PRIZE, THEN AND ONLY THEN...

RETURN AND KILL PELIAS.

AND NOW, REST YOURSELF.

MY COMPANIONS ARE
YOURS TO COMMAND.

FATHER, WHY DO YOU LET HIM LIVE?

IF I DESTROY HIM,
ACASTUS, I DESTROY MYSELF.

WHILE HE IS SEARCHING
FOR THE GOLDEN FLEECE,

HE IS AT THE ENDS OF
THE EARTH, AND I AM SAFE.

AND IF HE FINDS IT?

YOU WILL BE THERE.

♪♪

HAVE YOU COME TO
PRAY TO THE GODS, JASON?

IF I HAD, I WOULDN'T HAVE
CHOSEN A FALLEN ONE.

ONLY A STATUE.

SOMETIMES THE GODS
ARGUE AMONGST THEMSELVES.

THEN GREAT WINDS
BLOW AND TEMPLES FALL.

HERMES? YES?

NO, I SAID THE STATUE
WAS THE GOD HERMES.

HERMES. AH, YES.

A BRINGER OF DREAMS AND
THE PROWLER OF THE NIGHT.

JASON,

NO MAN CAN TELL YOU
HOW TO FIND THE FLEECE.

IS IT NOT TIME YOU
ASKED THE GODS?

THEY WILL NOT ANSWER
THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN THEM.

WHY SHOULD THEY
ANSWER ONE WHO DOESN'T?

COME WITH ME.

WHY?

SO THAT YOU WILL BELIEVE...

AND BE ANSWERED.

YOU WIN, MY LORD;

THAT IS, THE
BATTLE, NOT THE WAR.

OH, THOSE WATERS ARE FAR
TOO SHALLOW FOR GALLEYS.

HERA, MY DEAR, YOU REALLY MUST
LEARN TO WIN WITHOUT CHEATING,

OR AT LEAST TO LOSE GRACEFULLY.

GREETINGS, HERMES.
GREETINGS, MY LORD ZEUS.

THERE SEEMS TO
BE A PIECE MISSING.

PERHAPS I CAN HELP.

WELCOME TO OLYMPUS, JASON.

AH. JASON COME TO
MOUNT OLYMPUS AT LAST.

NO MAN CALLS UPON THE GODS
UNLESS HE WANTS SOMETHING.

WE ARRANGED FOR YOU TO
BE BROUGHT HERE BY HERMES.

I WOULDN'T HAVE BELIEVED A MORTAL
COULD ASK THE HELP OF THE GODS,

MUCH LESS VISIT THEM.

WELL, AT LEAST YOU'RE HONEST,

WHICH IS MORE THAN I CAN
SAY FOR MOST OTHER MORTALS.

WHAT IS IT YOU WANT? A SHIP?

A CREW? NO.

THOSE I CAN FIND MYSELF.

OH. AND WHAT ARE YOU GOING
TO USE IN PLACE OF GOLD?

- THE HEARTS OF MEN.
- I AM HERA,
QUEEN OF THE GODS,

AND YOUR PROTECTOR
ON THIS VOYAGE.

BUT MY LORD ZEUS
HAS DECREED A LIMIT...

TO THE NUMBER OF TIMES I MAY
HELP YOU WHEN YOU CALL UPON ME.

DO NOT SPEAK NOW. I KNOW
WHAT YOU MUST ASK OF ME:

DOES THE GOLDEN FLEECE
EXIST, AND IF SO, WHERE IS IT?

- THAT'S TWO QUESTIONS.
- AND I SHALL HELP HIM
WITH ONLY ONE ANSWER.

SEARCH IN THE LAND OF COLCHIS.

THEN IT DOES EXIST.

BUT COLCHIS... THAT'S THE END OF THE
WORLD. NO GREEK HAS EVER SAILED THERE.

NOW THAT YOU'VE HEARD THAT, ARE YOU
SO SURE THAT YOU WILL NOT NEED MY HELP?

THINK CAREFULLY.

I OFFERED HIM A SHIP...
A SHIP AND A CREW.

AND HE REFUSED ME.

REFUSED THE HELP OF THE GODS?

WHAT SHIP IS STRONG ENOUGH TO
REACH TO THE EDGE OF THE WORLD?

WHAT CREW BRAVE
ENOUGH TO SAIL IN HER?

I SHALL TELL THE
SHIPBUILDERS OF GREECE THAT

THE RICHEST CARGO IN THE
WORLD WAITS IN COLCHIS.

THE GOLDEN FLEECE
IS WORTH A KINGDOM,

AND I SHALL SAY THAT ONLY THE STRONGEST
SHIP EVER BUILT WILL SURVIVE THE VOYAGE.

THE ATHLETES OF
GREECE ARE PROUD.

I'LL TELL THEM ONLY
THE BEST CAN EXPECT A

PLACE IN THE MOST
PERILOUS VOYAGE IN HISTORY.

I SHALL ANNOUNCE A GAMES,

INVITE THE STRONGEST AND
THE BRAVEST OF THE GREEKS.

NO GREATER GAMES
SHALL EVER BE HELD,

UNLESS THE GODS
DECREE OTHERWISE.

I DID WELL TO CHOOSE YOU, JASON.

THE GODS ARE BEST SERVED BY
THOSE WHO WANT THEIR HELP LEAST.

WELCOME, POLYDEUCES.

CASTOR OF SPARTA.

ACASTUS OF THESSALY.

WELL DONE, ACASTUS.

CHAMPION ARCHER OF GREECE.

EUPHEMUS OF TAENARUM.

- SPYROS OF SYRACUSE.
- HERCULES!

HE'S HERE!

I MEAN TO SAIL WITH YOU, JASON. TELL ME
WHICH CHAMPION YOU WANT ME TO BEAT.

NO ONE. I KNOW YOU CAN BEAT
US ALL. YOUR PLACE IS RESERVED.

HERCULES. YES.

HERCULES? YES?

MY NAME IS HYLAS.

LIKE YOU, I CAME TOO LATE
TO COMPETE IN THE GAMES.

BUT IT OCCURS TO ME THAT IF
I CAN BEAT YOU AT SOMETHING,

JASON COULDN'T REFUSE ME
A PLACE ON THE SHIP EITHER.

AFTER ALL,

HE MIGHT NEED BRAINS
AS WELL AS BRAWN.

SHALL WE COMPETE?

DISCUS?

COME ON.

- SEE THAT ROCK?
- YES.

NO THROWER HAS EVER REACHED IT.

AND IS THE CONTEST
TO HIT IT OR PASS IT?

YOU'LL BE LUCKY IF YOU GET HALFWAY.
NOW GO ON. NO, AFTER YOU, HERCULES.

I'VE NEVER THROWN
A DISCUS BEFORE.

I'D LIKE TO SEE HOW IT'S DONE.

LET HYLAS HAVE HIS MOMENT
OF TRIUMPH WHILE HE MAY.

YOU SHALL HAVE
YOUR PLACE, HYLAS.

HAIL HYLAS. I HAVE FOUND THE
FINEST CREW IN ALL GREECE.

NOW FOR A SHIP THAT
IS WORTHY OF THEM.

ARGUS?

ARGUS! HELLO?

THAT YOU, ARGUS?

WHO'S THERE? IT'S JASON.

COME ABOARD.

OH, SO YOU'VE COME BACK
AGAIN. SHE'S A FINE SHIP.

YES.

SHE IS A FINE SHIP.
SHE'S READY TO SAIL.

WE'VE YET TO GIVE HER A
NAME. I'LL CALL HER THE ARGO,

AFTER HER BUILDER.

THE AR... THE ARGO?

WELL, YOU'D BETTER
HAVE A LOOK AT THE

FIGUREHEAD. IT MIGHT MAKE
YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND.

NO, THIS WAY.

IS IT FORWARD? NO, IT'S ASTERN.

WE'LL HAVE TO MOVE IT.

A FIGUREHEAD IS SUPPOSED TO WATCH
OVER THE WATER AHEAD OF THE VESSEL.

I CAN'T HELP THAT. SOMETHING
MADE ME PUT IT HERE.

HERA, QUEEN OF THE GODS.

- WHAT?
- NOTHING.

YOU DON'T OBJECT TO IT HERE?

NO.

NOR DO I. MAKES ME FEEL SOMEONE
FRIENDLY IS WATCHING OVER US.

WHEN DO WE SAIL? TOMORROW.

DON'T WASTE IT. THERE ISN'T ENOUGH
LEFT TO MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE, JASON.

OH, LET HIM REST.

BUT THE SOONER WE FIND SOME
ISLAND WITH WATER, THE BETTER.

WE CAN'T ROW MUCH
LONGER ON THREE SIPS A DAY.

TAKE MY ADVICE;
PUT BACK TO ICOS.

BUT WE'D LOSE FIVE DAYS SAILING.

WE HAVEN'T WATER
ENOUGH FOR TOMORROW, LET

ALONE THE TIME IT WOULD
TAKE US TO REACH ICOS.

DON'T WORRY, HYLAS; I DON'T
EXPECT HIM TO TAKE MY ADVICE,

BUT I WISH HE'D
LISTEN TO SOMEONE.

STILL GRUMBLING?

AH, SAILORS ALWAYS GRUMBLE.

THESE SAILORS HAVE
SOMETHING TO GRUMBLE ABOUT:

HARDLY ANY WATER, BLISTERED
HANDS... WELL, THEY SHOULD USE BRINE.

BRINE? IT TOUGHENS THE SKIN.

WELL, GO DOWN AND
TREAT THEM. I'LL STEER.

HERA?

YOU SAID YOU COULD HELP
ME A CERTAIN NUMBER OF TIMES.

SO FAR, YOU'VE
TOLD ME OF COLCHIS.

AND I THREW PELIAS FROM

HIS HORSE AND DRAGGED
HIM BENEATH THE WATER.

PELIAS?

SO THAT WAS KING PELIAS.

I KNOW YOUR NEED. SET
SAIL AND STEER NORTH.

YOU WILL REACH
LAND AT NOON. WHERE?

- THE ISLE OF BRONZE.
- I NEVER HEARD OF IT.

NO MORTAL HAS. IT WAS
THE FOUNDRY OF THE GODS.

HEPHAESTUS LABORED THERE, MAKING ARMOR
AND WEAPONS FOR ZEUS. OH, DO NOT FEAR.

HEPHAESTUS HIMSELF
IS LONG DEPARTED.

I WILL SEE THAT YOU
REACH THE ISLE OF BRONZE,

BUT LISTEN TO ME, JASON;
LISTEN VERY CAREFULLY.

TAKE THE HELM. YES, SIR.

SET SAIL.

WE REACH LAND AT NOON.
THEN YOU CAN FILL YOUR

BELLIES UNTIL THEY GRUMBLE
AS MUCH AS YOUR TONGUES.

IT WILL BE SAFE TO
TAKE FOOD AND WATER,

BUT NOTHING ELSE...
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE.

THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE WOMEN?

IF THERE ARE ANY ON
THE ISLAND, YES, IT DOES.

IF I MEET A GIRL WITH A FIRM LEG,
A FULL BOSOM AND A WARM HEART,

LET NO MAN TRY AND STOP ME.

- TALOS WILL.
- WHO'S TALOS?

YOU DON'T MEAN THERE'S A
MAN THERE WHO WANTS TO FIGHT?

I SPOKE OF NO MAN.

FOOD AND WATER,
HERCULES. THAT'S ALL.

JASON, WHO TOLD
YOU OF THIS ISLAND?

THE GODDESS HERA.

PORT HELM.

STEADY AS YOU GO.

FURL THE SAIL.

ASHORE FOR FOOD AND WATER.

ARE GOATS GOOD SAILORS? GOATS?
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH
GOATS ON BOARD SHIP?

WELL, SOME OF US
MIGHT BE HUNGRY...

OR THIRSTY.

COME ON.

HERE'S ONE FOR THE POT.

HERCULES!

ISN'T HE ONE OF THE TITANS?

HE MIGHT BE. HE'S BIG ENOUGH.

DIDN'T JASON SAY
SOMETHING ABOUT TALOS?

THIS MUST BE WHERE HEPHAESTUS
MOLDED THE STATUES OF THE GODS.

YES, AND SET THEM UP
FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.

HERCULES.

IT'S A TREASURE CHAMBER.

A TREASURE CHAMBER OF THE GODS.

LOOK AT THIS.

AND THIS.

A PEARL! IT'S A JAVELIN!

DON'T BE SILLY. IN A JEWEL BOX?

IT'S A BROOCH PIN.

WELL, WHATEVER IT IS, IT'LL MAKE A
USEFUL WEAPON. LET'S GET BACK TO THE SHIP.

HERCULES...

WELL, WHAT IS IT?

YOU'D BETTER PUT IT BACK. WHY?

REMEMBER WHAT JASON SAID?

IT WON'T BE MISSED.

ANYWAY, IF THE GODS
LEAVE ALL THIS LYING

ABOUT UNGUARDED, THEY
OBVIOUSLY DON'T WANT IT.

COME ON.

IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE WIND.

AND YOU SAW NOTHING
OF THEM AFTER THAT?

PERHAPS HERCULES
FOUND A WOMAN AFTER ALL.

TALOS!

BACK WATER! BACK! BACK WATER!

I WARNED YOU, JASON.

THIS IS HERCULES' DOING. TALOS
WILL TRY TO KILL ALL OF YOU.

HOW CAN I FIGHT HIM?

THINK BEFORE YOU WASTE
THE GIFT OF THE GODS.

AGAINST THE MAN OF BRONZE, OUR WEAPONS
ARE USELESS. I REPEAT THAT QUESTION.

THEN I MUST ANSWER IT. FIGHT TALOS WITH
YOUR WITS RATHER THAN YOUR COURAGE,

AND LOOK TO HIS
ANKLES. HIS ANKLES?

THERE IS NOTHING
ELSE I CAN TELL YOU.

JASON! YOU DISOBEYED MY ORDER.

LURE HIM TO THESE ROCKS,
BUT STAY OUT OF REACH!

AND WHAT WILL YOU DO? I
SHALL HIDE HERE, ACASTUS.

AND I SHALL DO MY VERY BEST TO
SEND HIM TO YOU, JASON. MY VERY BEST.

MIND HIS FOOT!

QUICK, GET BACK TO THE ROCKS!

HYLAS!

HERCULES, YOU LEFT YOUR...

WELL? WE SEARCHED, ARGUS.

AND I WILL SEARCH AGAIN.

HYLAS WAS WITH US.

WE... WE SAW HIM RUNNING,
BUT THEN HE... DISAPPEARED.

HE COULD HAVE BEEN HURT,

NOT ABLE TO GET BACK TO
THE SHIP, LIKE PALINUROS.

WE HAD TO CARRY HIM ABOARD.

HERCULES, HYLAS IS DEAD.

THE GODS DECIDED IT.

WHY KILL A BOY FOR
MY GRAVE FAULT?

BUT I SHOULD HAVE
STAYED WITH HIM.

SEARCH UNTIL NIGHTFALL.
WE WON'T SAIL TILL THEN.

SAIL WHEN YOU PLEASE, JASON.

I CANNOT LEAVE THIS ISLAND
TILL I HAVE FOUND HYLAS.

JASON,

WILL YOU ABANDON HERCULES,
THE BEST MAN AMONG US?

I, FOR ONE, WON'T SAIL
WITHOUT HIM. NOR SHALL I.

NOR I.

COME WITH ME. HYLAS!

IS THERE ANY MAN HERE WHO
DOES NOT OBEY THE GODS?

WE WILL DO AS THE GODDESS HERA
COMMANDS, IF SHE WILL SPEAK TO US.

THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE, JASON,

THE LAST TIME
THAT I CAN HELP YOU.

I UNDERSTAND.

THEN KNOW THIS,
ARGONAUTS: HYLAS IS DEAD.

HYLAS IS DEAD. AS FOR HERCULES,

HE IS NOT FATED TO GO
FURTHER WITH THE ARGO.

ZEUS HAS OTHER TASKS FOR HIM.

- AND FOR US, HERA?
- SAIL TO PHRYGIA.

SEEK OUT PHINEAS,
THE BLINDED MAN.

ONLY HE CAN GUIDE YOU NOW.

WE SET SAIL.

COME ON. BACK TO YOUR PLACES!

COME ON. BACK TO YOUR
PLACES. GET FORWARD THERE!

LORD ZEUS, I WAS A SINNER.

I'VE NEVER TRIED TO DENY IT.

BUT I DIDN'T SIN EVERY DAY.

WHY, THEN, DO YOU
PUNISH ME EVERY DAY?

WHAT IN THE NAME OF
THE GODS ARE THEY?

JASON!

ARE YOU PHINEAS? YES.

TAKE MY ARM. I CAN'T
SEE YOURS. DON'T FLINCH.

ZEUS GAVE ME THE GIFT OF PROPHESY,
BUT I MISUSED IT, SO I WAS BLINDED.

ZEUS ORDERED THE
HARPIES TO TORMENT ME.

YOU, JASON, NOW LISTEN TO ME.

THE GODS HAVE ORDERED ME TO TELL
YOU WHATEVER YOU WANT TO KNOW.

BUT THE GODS HAVE
GONE TOO FAR WITH ME.

THEY CAN PUNISH A MAN SO MUCH,
AND THEN ONE DAY HE ABANDONS THEM.

HE SAYS, "ALL RIGHT, ZEUS.
THROW A THUNDERBOLT.

LET THE EARTH
SWALLOW ME. I DEFY YOU!"

YOU GROWL AWAY ALL YOU
LIKE, ZEUS. I MEAN WHAT I SAY.

JASON, I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW...

ONLY IF YOU'LL MEET MY PRICE.

WHAT IS YOUR PRICE? FREE ME
FROM THESE TORMENTING HARPIES.

IF ZEUS SENT THOSE CREATURES TO
PLAGUE HIM, WE'D BE UNWISE TO INTERFERE.

THAT'S MY PRICE. THEN
WE'LL MEET IT, PHINEAS.

WE'LL MAKE YOU THE
MASTER OF THE HARPIES.

GET OUT!

GET!

GET TO THE ROPES!

NOW!

CASTOR, PHALERUS! FIND
SOME WOOD TO BUILD A CAGE.

HERE YOU ARE, YOU HUNGRY FELLOW, A
BIG FISH FOR YOU AND SOME MORE WINE.

WELL, PHINEAS, WE'VE COMPLETED
OUR PART OF THE BARGAIN.

- WHAT IS IT YOU WANT TO KNOW?
- THE WAY TO COLCHIS.

THE WAY TO COLCHIS IS
THROUGH THE CLASHING ROCKS.

STEER NORTHWEST AND YOU'LL REACH
THEM IN FIVE DAYS. NORTHWEST, EH?

AFTER THE CLASHING
ROCKS, YOU TURN NORTHEAST.

BEFORE LONG, YOU'LL SIGHT
THE SHORES OF COLCHIS.

- BUT TELL ME. WHAT GODS PROTECT YOU?
- NONE NOW.

THEN YOU WON'T PASS
THE CLASHING ROCKS.

- WHAT ARE THE CLASHING ROCKS?
- THEY SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES,
DON'T THEY?

ALL I CAN OFFER YOU IS THIS.

IT'S NOT MUCH REWARD
FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE.

BUT IT'S ALL I HAVE.

IF THAT'S ALL YOU CAN
TELL US THEN, GOOD-BYE.

THE GODS BE MERCIFUL TO YOU.

PHINEAS, FROM NOW ON, THEY'LL
WITNESS A BANQUET EVERY NIGHT...

AND EAT THE SCRAPS YOU LEAVE.

GOOD APPETITE.

THERE'S NOT MUCH WATER HERE.

STEADY AS YOU GO. ROW EASY.

EASY ALL.

EASY ALL!

IT'S A NARROW CHANNEL, BUT I CAN'T
SEE WHAT MADE PHINEAS SO FRIGHTENED.

IT LOOKS CALM ENOUGH.

TOO CALM. ACASTUS!

I KNOW THE SEA-GOD'S MOODS.

MOST OF THEM ARE DANGEROUS.

ACASTUS, TAKE A SOUNDING.

THE REST OF YOU BE PREPARED
TO ROW WHEN I GIVE THE WORD!

AT AN EASY STROKE.
SAVE YOUR STRENGTH.

THEY MAY NEED IT LATER.

SHIP AHOY! SHIP AHOY!

THERE SHE IS.

SHE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE
IN ANY GREAT DIFFICULTY.

AAAH!

A WHOLE SHIP'S CREW.
LYNCEUS FROM THE MASTHEAD.

THERE WAS NO HOPE OF
SAVING HIM, NOT IN THAT SEA.

ARE WE GOING THROUGH?

YES!

BUT IT'S... ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE GOING THROUGH.

BACK TO YOUR PLACES!

THERE'S NO TURNING BACK NOW.

NO, ACASTUS. THERE'S NO
TURNING BACK ON THIS VOYAGE.

DRUMMER, BEAT OUT THE STROKE!

BUT KEEP IT EASY!

THE GODS WANT
THEIR ENTERTAINMENT.

JASON GOES TOO FAR.

BECAUSE HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH WHEN
THE GODS THEMSELVES GO TOO FAR?

TURN BACK, JASON! WE'RE TRAPPED!

TRAPPED, HERA. IT SEEMS SO.

YOU'VE LEFT ME ONLY ONE MOVE.

PRAY TO THE GODS, JASON!

THE GODS OF GREECE ARE CRUEL.

IN TIME ALL MEN SHALL
LEARN TO DO WITHOUT THEM.

PULL! PULL!

GET BACK TO YOUR PLACE.

PULL! PULL!

TILL YOUR HEARTS CRACK
AND YOUR BACKS BREAK!

PULL! PULL!

KEEP THE STROKE GOING!

HMM?

JASON DARED TO SPEAK OF THE END
OF THE GODS, YET YOU LET HIM LIVE.

IF I WERE TO PUNISH EVERY BLASPHEMY,
I'D SOON LOSE ALL LOYALTY AND RESPECT.

YOU ARE THE GOD OF MANY MEN.

YET WHEN THOSE MEN NO LONGER BELIEVE
IN YOU, THEN YOU'LL RETURN TO NOTHING.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT,
AND YET YOU REMAIN WITH ME.

YOU THINK IT WEAK
OF ME, MY LORD?

NOT WEAK, ALMOST HUMAN.

WHICHEVER GOD OR GODDESS
HELPED US IS TO BE THANKED.

THOSE OTHERS
WEREN'T SO FORTUNATE.

WHAT'S THAT?

WHO ARE YOU? YOUR SHIP WAS LOST.

WE FOUND ONLY TWO OTHER
SURVIVORS. THEY ARE BEING LOOKED AFTER.

HERE. DRINK THIS.

WHEN DID YOU SAIL FROM COLCHIS?

DAWN THIS MORNING.

DAWN? THEN OUR
JOURNEY IS NEARLY OVER.

- WHERE HAVE YOU COME FROM?
- THESSALY.

BUT THAT'S THE OTHER
SIDE OF THE WORLD.

YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE A MERCHANT.

YOUR VESSEL'S A FIGHTING SHIP.

WE'D BE FOOLISH TO SAIL UNARMED.

BY ALL ACCOUNTS, YOUR
KING, AEETES, FEARS THE GODS,

AND WE WERE SENT BY THE GODS.

BUT I'M GOING TO TALK
TO HIM ALONE, PEACEFULLY.

NOW YOU ANSWER A QUESTION. WHAT WAS
YOUR SHIP DOING IN SUCH DANGEROUS WATERS?

WE CAME TO SACRIFICE
TO THE GODS OF THE ROCKS,

TO THROW FLOWERS ONTO THE
SEA TO MAKE IT SAFE FOR OUR SHIPS.

I'M AFRAID OUR GODS WERE ANGRY
AND NOT SO POWERFUL AS YOURS.

ARE YOU A PRIESTESS? I
SERVE IN THE TEMPLE OF HECATE.

A DANCER. IS HECATE THE
GOD OF THE COLCHIANS?

THE GODDESS.

BUT I'D HEARD THEY WORSHIP SOME
STRANGE IDOL, THE SKULL AND SKIN OF A RAM.

NO ORDINARY RAM. ITS FLEECE IS OF
GOLD, A GIFT OF THE GODS THEMSELVES.

IT'S BROUGHT OUR CITY
GREAT PEACE AND PROSPERITY.

WE'LL PUT YOU ASHORE
AT DAWN TOMORROW.

PERHAPS YOU WILL SHOW ME THE WAY
TO THE CITY. NOW, TELL ME YOUR NAME.

MEDEA. AND YOU CAN
ANSWER MY FIRST QUESTION.

WHO ARE YOU? MY NAME IS JASON.

WITHIN A FEW HOURS,
WE SHALL SIGHT COLCHIS.

I'M COMING IN QUIETLY BY NIGHT.

NOW THE VOYAGE IS OVER, I
DON'T WANT THE TROUBLE TO BEGIN.

WON'T BE ANY TROUBLE, JASON. JUST TELL
US WHERE THE CITY IS AND WHEN WE ATTACK.

- WE DON'T ATTACK.
- BUT THAT'S FOOLISH.

YOU HAVE THE FINEST
FIGHTING MEN IN THE WORLD.

- FORTY FIGHTING MEN
AGAINST A NATION?
- BETTER 40 THAN 1, JASON.

WE'RE NOT PIRATES.

WHAT'S THAT GIRL DONE TO YOU? WE
THOUGHT YOU WERE A FIGHTING MAN.

I'M GOING UP ALONE IN THE MORNING
TO SEE WHAT THE SITUATION IS.

OH, YOU MEAN SPY OUT
THE LAND. WELL, WHY ALONE?

WHY NOT TAKE A
FEW OF US SCOUTING?

THE FEWER WHO GO, THE LESS CAN GET
CAUGHT. WHAT'S THE FEWEST YOU CAN THINK OF?

- ONE, OF COURSE.
- RIGHT. I ACCEPT YOUR ADVICE.

BUT I DON'T!

HAVING SAILED THIS FAR TOGETHER, I
SUPPOSE WE'RE FREE TO SPEAK OUR MINDS.

AND WHAT'S ON YOURS, ACASTUS?

WE NOSE OUR WAY UPSTREAM, RUSH
THE GUARDS AND SEIZE THE FLEECE.

WE'D BE OUT INTO THE OPEN SEA WHILE
AEETES AND HIS COLCHIANS WERE STILL ASLEEP.

A NIGHT ATTACK? YES!

AND IN THE DARK, DURING THE ATTACK,
A MAN WILL DIE. THAT MAN WILL BE ME.

A JAVELIN IN MY BACK. A GREEK
JAVELIN, ACASTUS. MAYBE YOUR JAVELIN!

- YOU'LL DIE FOR THAT, JASON.
- KEEP BACK!

EUPHEMUS!

IT'S EUPHEMUS. HE'S DEAD.

LOOK AT THIS.
SLASHED AND BLOODY.

ACASTUS MUST BE AT THE BOTTOM
OF THE SEA. I WONDER. MAKE SAIL!

AND EUPHEMUS? THE SEA WAS
HIS KINGDOM WHILE HE WAS ALIVE.

LET IT TAKE HIS
BODY NOW HE'S DEAD.

MAKE SAIL! MAKE SAIL!

YOU'RE WOUNDED.

WE HAVE A FLOWER IN COLCHIS
WHICH HEALS AND SOOTHES.

TOMORROW I'LL SHOW YOU.

WHAT DO YOU CALL THE
FLOWER? IT HAS NO NAME.

IT GROWS ON A DOUBLE STALK. THEY SAY IT
SPRANG FROM THE BLOOD OF PROMETHEUS.

AND IT HAS BEEN USED OVER THE YEARS
FOR ITS SOOTHING AND CURING POWERS.

THE SUN'S GETTING HIGHER.
WE MUST BE ON OUR WAY.

FOLLOW THE ROAD TO THE EAST.

YOU'RE NOT COMING
FURTHER? I GO ANOTHER WAY.

THE GODDESS HECATE HAS SPOKEN.

THERE WILL BE ONE
AMONG US TODAY...

FROM THE ENDS OF THE WORLD.

HIS NAME IS JASON.

ANY MAN OF WHOM HE
ASKS HIS WAY SHALL SAY THIS:

"AEETES, KING OF COLCHIS,

AWAITS HIM IN THE
TEMPLE OF HECATE."

AND THAT IS ALL ANY
MAN SHALL SAY TO HIM.

COME FORWARD, JASON.

YOU HAVE DONE ALL OF US A GREAT
SERVICE. TONIGHT WE SHALL FEAST YOU.

WE KNOW OF YOUR GREAT HEROISM,
AND IT DESERVES CELEBRATION.

RETURN THEN TO YOUR COMPANIONS
AND BRING THEM TO MY PALACE.

I THANK YOU, MY LORD,
BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

- MEDEA?
- WELCOME TO COLCHIS.

I GIVE YOU JASON
AND THE ARGONAUTS!

JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS!

TELL ME, JASON. WHY DID
YOU COME TO COLCHIS?

IN PEACE. I SAID WHY, NOT HOW.

ALTOGETHER, HOW MANY
MEN HAVE YOU? ENOUGH.

AND YOU SAY YOU
DO NOT THREATEN US?

ENVOYS WHO COME TO ME
IN DECEIT REMAIN IN DEATH.

I KNOW YOU'VE COME
FOR THE FLEECE.

I KNOW TOO THAT IF YOU CANNOT WIN IT
BY BARGAINING, THEN YOU PLAN TO STEAL IT.

BUT WE'LL NEVER
PART WITH IT, JASON.

IT IS A GIFT OF THE GODS!

IT HAS BROUGHT WEALTH
AND PEACE TO COLCHIS.

SHOULD WE EVER LET IT
GO IT WOULD MEAN PLAGUE

AND FAMINE AND THE
DESTRUCTION OF OUR COUNTRY!

WE CAN NO LONGER
WELCOME OR ENTERTAIN YOU,

BUT TREAT YOU AS YOU DESERVE!

AS THIEVES! AS PIRATES!

AS MURDERERS!

WE GIVE OUR THANKS
TO ONE PERSON,

A PERSON WHO EXPOSED A
CRIMINAL ATTEMPT ON OUR KINGDOM:

THE SON OF KING
PELIAS OF THESSALY,

ACASTUS!

HECATE, QUEEN OF DARKNESS,
YOU'VE ALWAYS HELPED ME.

TELL ME NOW WHAT I MUST DO.

YOU, WHO GAVE ME
THE GIFT OF FORESIGHT,

WHY DIDN'T YOU REVEAL
TO ME ACASTUS' TREACHERY?

HE WHO SITS
DRINKING WITH AEETES,

WHILE JASON...

IN PRISON, CONDEMNED TO DEATH.

IF I HELP HIM NOW IN THE
QUEST FOR THE FLEECE,

I SHALL BE A TRAITOR
TO MY COUNTRY...

AND TO YOU, HECATE.

AND IF NOT,

TO MYSELF.

HELP ME, HECATE.

MEDEA?

WHY DID YOU COME HERE?
WAS IT AEETES WHO SENT YOU?

I CAME TO ASK YOU TO GIVE UP YOUR QUEST
AND SAIL AWAY WITH THE ARGONAUTS IN PEACE.

NEVER RETURN.

NEVER TO THINK AGAIN OF THE GOLDEN
FLEECE? NEVER TO THINK OF THE FLEECE.

THEN IT WAS AEETES.

YOU TELL HIM I WILL
FULFILL THE TASK THE GODS

HAVE SENT ME AND NEVER
BETRAY THE ARGONAUTS...

WHATEVER HE OFFERS ME,

EVEN IF IT'S MEDEA, HIGH
PRIESTESS OF HECATE.

PLEASE. FORGET
THE GOLDEN FLEECE.

I FEAR FOR YOUR SAFETY.

IF YOU'RE SET ON
CARRYING IT AWAY,

I MUST COME WITH YOU.

I'LL GO ALONE.

NO, I HAVE TO GO WITH YOU.

I HAVE NO COUNTRY NOW...

AND I LOVE YOU.

SHH!

CASTOR, PHALERUS,
DEMETRIUS, GET TO THE DOOR.

THE REST OF YOU
BACK TO YOUR PLACES.

THE PRIESTESS?
ARGUS, LISTEN TO MEDEA.

WHEN YOU'RE CLEAR OF THE PALACE, GO
BACK TO THE SHIP AND ROW DOWNSTREAM.

THERE'S A BREAK IN THE CLIFF AND A
PATH LEADING THROUGH THE WOODS.

ANCHOR THERE. WE'LL JOIN YOU.

WELL, WHAT IS IT?
JASON HAS ESCAPED!

AND HIS MEN? THEY'RE ALL GONE.

I WAS MAKING MY ROUNDS AND
FOUND THE GUARDS DRUGGED!

DRUGGED? THEN
THERE'S AN ACCOMPLICE.

WHERE'S ACASTUS? HE'S
NOT IN HIS QUARTERS.

ACASTUS HELP JASON? BUT
THERE'S NO REASON TO IT.

UNLESS IT WAS MEDEA
WHO MIXED THE DRUG.

THE HIGH PRIESTESS OF HECATE?

I SAW HOW MEDEA LOOKED AT JASON.

IF MEDEA IS HELPING THEM, THEN SHE'S
GUIDING THEM TO THE GOLDEN FLEECE...

AND THE ARGONAUTS
WILL TAKE SHIP.

THE LANDWARD WAY IS SHORTER.
MUSTER YOUR MEN, CAPTAIN!

SHH! LISTEN.

SOLDIERS! PHALERUS,
CASTOR, YOU COME WITH ME.

NO, NOT YOU,
POLYDEUCES. BUT, ARGUS...

YOU STAY ABOARD WITH THE REST
OF THE MEN AND GUARD THE SHIP.

JASON!

JASON!

A-AEETES AND THE COLCHIANS...

WE HEARD THEM FROM THE SHIP.
THEY MUST BE SOMEWHERE NEAR.

GET THE FLEECE.

GUARDS, FOLLOW THEM
UP THERE AND THAT WAY.

WAIT!

HECATE, QUEEN OF DARKNESS, REVENGE
YOURSELF AGAINST THE THESSALIANS.

DELIVER TO ME THE CHILDREN
OF THE HYDRA'S TEETH.

THE CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT!

THE TEETH! FETCH ME THE
HYDRA'S TEETH. QUICKLY!

AGAINST THE CHILDREN OF THE
HYDRA'S TEETH THERE IS NO PROTECTION.

THE FLEECE. GIVE ME THE FLEECE.

IT HAS THE POWER TO HEAL.

AAAH!

IT'S TRUE! IT DOES HAVE
THE POWER TO HEAL.

JASON!

HOLD THE GUARDS BACK,
CAPTAIN, OR THEY MAY DIE,

KILLED WITH JASON
AND HIS PIRATES.

RISE UP, YOU DEAD,
SLAIN OF THE HYDRA.

RISE FROM YOUR
GRAVES AND AVENGE US.

THOSE WHO STEAL THE
GOLDEN FLEECE MUST DIE.

- ARGUS, GET DOWN TO THE SHIP. TAKE MEDEA.
- COME WITH ME.

THERE!

AND THERE!

THERE'S YET ANOTHER!

WAIT.

AND MORE!

DESTROY THEM!

KILL!

KILL! KILL! KILL THEM ALL!

GET BACK!

I THINK THAT PROVES AT LAST THAT
I'M A WORTHY OPPONENT, MY LORD.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING? TO CLEAR
THE BOARD. THE GAME IS OVER.

IT CERTAINLY IS NOT.

FOR THE MOMENT, LET
THEM ENJOY A CALM SEA,

A FRESH BREEZE AND EACH OTHER.

THE GIRL IS PRETTY, AND I
WAS ALWAYS SENTIMENTAL.

BUT FOR JASON, THERE
ARE OTHER ADVENTURES.

I HAVE NOT YET
FINISHED WITH JASON.

LET US CONTINUE THE
GAME ANOTHER DAY.
