Olympos: Nullhunter by Walsh and Vargas
Olympos is by no means the first attempt at doing epic mythology in a scifi genre (Ulysse 31, Dan Simmon's Ilium/Olympos...) but it is quite effective. The greek "gods" are humans super-enhanced by technology, all part of a conglomerate that rules over a vast empire of planets. Clay is the wayward son who left the family after years of war and violence... until he killed his own wife and son while hallucinating. But his father Zays comes to free him from prison, telling him that his neuroware was tampered with which led him to the murder of his loved ones. Now Clay is back in the family and wants revenge, he just doesn't know who is responsible. A decent scifi / mythology crossover with a distinctive art style, much better than I expected.
