More Fanart and Season Two News at 'Brad's Corner'.

THIS ENTRY AND ITS LINKS CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR SEASON TWO OF 'CLASS OF THE TITANS', AS WELL AS MYTHOLOGICAL REFERENCES SOME FANS MAY WANT TO FIGURE-OUT ON THEIR OWN. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED, THEN PLEASE NEITHER READ ANY FURTHER OR CLICK ON ANY LINKS. THANK YOU.

As our first post for the new year of 2007 -- director Brad Goodchild is back and posting once again at his blog after a well-deserved holiday. The latest entry features a nice pencil drawing of Jay from fan Hali Wu, and Mr. Goodchild also mentions receiving other fanart that will be displayed soon.

On the Season Two front -- tomorrow seems to be the recording session date for the episode titled Like a Rolling Stone. Mr. Goodchild has left the meaning of the title open at his blog, and if you do NOT want to know about it, please STOP reading this entry right NOW before the next paragraph.

The title is a reference to the myth of Sisyphus. King Sisyphus was a trickster who committed a number of indecent acts, including violating the the sacred rule of xenia (ie. protection of travelers), betraying the gods' secrets, and imprisoning Thanatos (essentially death personified). As punishment, he was doomed in the Underworld to forever roll a giant boulder up a steep hill, only for it to roll back down just before he reached the top and therefore forcing him to start the task over and over again. He also may or may not be Odysseus' real father -- rather than Laertes -- via a rape.

As usual, we will try to get this information up on the Season Two news summary as soon as possible.
