Requested Iphicles screencaps

[marycrawford]

roo2 asked for Iphicles screencaps, from the H:tLJ episode "What's In A Name" where Hercules' half-brother first makes his appearance. Here are a few, with more on the way when I update my site. roo2, I hope they'll prove inspiring for the much-anticipated Egyptian story. :-)

Ah, Kevin Smith, how we miss you. I admit I like him better as Ares, but Iphicles has his moments. It must be so aggravating to have a half-brother who's got a divine gift of always being right.
Iolaus is great in this episode, too. "Next time I ask to be fed - feed me!" he growls at a guard before decking him. I was trying to work out how long he's actually held prisoner. It can't be that long, can it? Less than a day? And already Iolaus is considering rat au naturel. I never realized how canon Iolaus' insatiable appetite really is.

Very nice caps. I wish they'd done more with Iphicles -- there was a lot of potential for storylines there.

Yeah, it looks like he basically missed one meal. He really must have the metabolism of a hummingbird. And I love that attempt he makes to meditate at one point. I noticed when I first saw that episode that he holds his hands in the same way that Xena does when she meditates in a Xena ep, I forget which one.

These are lovely. I'm glad Roo requested them and you found time to do them. I miss KS so much.

It really is too bad that they never used Iphicles as much as they could have. At the very least, he should have been there when Alcmene died.
