(Possible subtitle: "If Perseus had had a smartphone instead of a gorgon's head...")

 Inspired by Predatron's "Echoes Of Andromeda" (DAZ), the movie title "Too Late The Hero", a V4 volleyball pose (of all things!), and (as is often the case) a rather tangential way of looking at things...  ;o)

I knew that I didn't want the creature to be clearly visible, so my first few versions had just small parts of it showing - just a hint of what it might look like. But most of them didn't work out as I'd hoped, although a couple of variations look promising - including the second image, with more motion blur than planned, which I think could be subtitled "Why Heroes Shouldn't Carry Smartphones"  ;o) . And I was quite surprised that the version with no creature visible looked so effective. Personally I think the third image is the best...

And although male heroes were the mainstay of classical myth, modern fantasy has many heroines - so I have an idea to rework this, but with a surprised Michael/Freak as the main course !  :D  (Edit: see my next upload "Tentacles?" , which veered off in a rather unexpected direction! )
