Gerald Scarfe (né le 1er juin 1936 à St. John's Wood, Londres) est un dessinateur et caricaturiste anglais. Il est connu pour avoir travaillé avec Pink Floyd sur leur concept album/concert/film The Wall, dont il a fait les dessins ayant servi de base aux animations, et en tant que caricaturiste pour le Sunday Times et en tant qu'illustrateur pour le New Yorker.

Il s'est marié en 1981 avec l'actrice Jane Asher, ancienne compagne de Paul McCartney.

Gerald Scarfe a fait paraître de nombreux livres dans lesquels il commente ses œuvres. Il est resté très proche de Roger Waters, qui a préfacé son livre The Making Of Pink Floyd The Wall, lequel est paru au moment où l'ex-bassiste des Pink Floyd s'apprêtait à entamer une nouvelle tournée reprenant son opéra-rock.

Dix ans après la fin de leurs études de médecine, cinq jeunes gens se retrouvent à bord d'un train de marchandises. Ils y évoquent leur passé commun, le temps où la Pologne était régentée par le stalinisme intransigeant : à cette époque, ils avaient été chargés d'accoler des panneaux de papier afin d'ériger un immense portrait de Staline pour le défilé du premier mai. Or sur l'affiche, le despote avait été affublé de deux paires d'yeux.

After imprisoning the Titans beneath the ocean, the Greek gods gather to Mount Olympus for Zeus, and his wife Hera have a son named Hercules. While the other gods are joyful, Zeus' jealous brother Hades plots to overthrow Zeus and rule Mount Olympus. Turning to the Fates for help, Hades learns that in eighteen years, a planetary alignment will allow Hades to locate and free the Titans to conquer Olympus, but only if Hercules does not interfere. Hades sends his minions Pain and Panic to dispose of Hercules. The two succeed at kidnapping and feeding him a formula that turns him mortal, but fail to remove his superhuman strength before Hercules is found and adopted by the farmers Amphitryon and Alcmene.
