In anticipation of the end of the world, the Archangel Michael (Charles Mesure) has released three of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: War, Famine, and Pestilence. Iolaus I (Michael Hurst) briefly returns from the dead to warn Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) of mankind's impending doom. Teaming with Iolaus II (also Michael Hurst), and, surprisingly, the war god Ares (Kevin Smith), Hercules sets about to prevent the Apocalypse from playing itself out -- but alas, the fourth horseman, Death, has already joined his three comrades. This episode originally aired as the fifth-season finale of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
