Since Hermes is the messenger of the Gods many newspapers and delivery services use a picture of his shoe with the wings on the back. He was given Apollo\'s staff, which has two serpents spinning around the shaft and wings at the top as child. Images of this have been used in the medical field for a very long time. The super hero Wonder Woman received her super speed and flying powers from Hermes in the comics. Hermes also was a character in the Disney movie Hercules.
