* InNameOnly: The story has little to do with the legend of Hercules. If anything it feels like it steals a thing or two from the 2011 film adaptation of Marvel Comics' ''Thor'', most obviously the conflict between a fair haired hero (Hercules) and his evil dark haired brother (Iphicles).

* TheUnfavorite: Iphicles is this compared to Hercules, fueling his antagonism, due to his mother focusing more on raising Hercules as the chosen hero that is destined to stop a great evil while his father blatantly regarded him as a disappointment. He makes it a point when attempting to force Hebe to marry him to demand that she will bear his children and she will love them equally afterwards.
