Mythological Greek history tells many tales of heroic deeds and colossal conflicts. The tale that concerns the creation of the man that would become Antaean is "the Giants Revolt".
Legend has it that the Titans, imprisoned in Tartarus, plotted an assault against Heaven (Olympus). Their assault was based upon finding the herb of invulnerability. Zeus foiled their attempts by finding the herb before them and taking it to the heavenly planes. However, unknown to Zeus and the Titans, small traces of the Herb remained.
Some say a warrior stumbled upon the Herb’s resting ground and consumed it, thus becoming a champion for Zeus. Others say a mere drunkard inadvertently mixed the herb with honey, creating a meady beverage that bestowed upon him god-like powers by accident. Whatever the tale, the discovery was life-changing.
Deciding to use his new found powers for heroic deeds, the unknown individual appropriately chose the name “Antaean”, which is an ancient Greek word meaning “to have superhuman strength” and has fought for Justice (and Mead) ever since.
