Editing Phlegyas (section)

==Other appearances==
* In the ''[[Divine Comedy]]'' poem ''[[Inferno (Dante)|Inferno]]'', Phlegyas ferries Virgil and [[Dante Alighieri|Dante]] across the River [[Styx]] which is portrayed as a marsh where the wrathful and sullen lie within [[Hell]]'s Circle of Wrath.
* Phlegyas appears in the video game ''[[Dante's Inferno (video game)|Dante's Inferno]]''. This version is a giant fiery rock monster: whether he has always been is unknown. Dante unknowingly rides across the Styx on the wrathful demigod's crown. After fighting his way towards Dis and seeing Beatrice become Lucifer's bride, Dante takes control of Phlegyas and uses him to break into the City of Dis. When Dante reaches the circle of Heresy, Phlegyas breaks the ground he's standing on. Dante manages to jump off in time, but Phlegyas breaks through the floor and plummets into the abyss.
** In the animated film based on the video game called ''[[Dante's Inferno: An Animated Epic]]'', the appearance of Phlegyas (whose vocal effects are provided by [[Kevin Michael Richardson]]) is more toned down as he appears in the film as a green-skinned humanoid who willingly took Dante and Virgil through the fifth circle of Hell without incident. He was knocked out by Lucifer when Dante controlled Phlegyas to charge Lucifer.
