The tees are made by edoc laundry, a clothing company that's part of the alternate reality gaming scene. From their web site:
"Woven into everything we make are hidden messages and codes most people can’t see. Edoc clothes break across the traditional categories of street, skate/surf, and classic by creating a new category that spans our entire line: Covert. Every piece of gear is a trapdoor into a hidden world. Check it out. We’ve got nothing to hide."
It does sound fairly entertaining, the t-shirts don't look bad at all, and solving a puzzle would give me something to do while I wait for Hung out to dry to reach this side of the pond and hopefully provide me with some snark material. The deities and monsters involved are Hades, Hypnos, Argus, and the hydra, meaning, of course, that the foobar potential is infinite.
The original hydra

Well, the episode could have been more "literary" - early on, I thought the order in which Hercules performed his labors was going to be relevant. Alas, no - but it was a fun romp anyhow.
If the comparative you use is prime-time TV's usual handling of such things, I think you'll be fairly happy - this is just the sort of thing that might stir up some teen's interest in Greek mythology, which is never to be sneezed at.
