Interesting. I love stories about brothers. Though I have to wonder if someone didn't get something wrong again and turned "a band of brothers" into "real" brothers along the way. Wouldn't be the first time. Though the whole brother thing would explain why the plot seems to focus on Athos, Porthos and Aramis with no d'Artagnan in sight. I wouldn't mind watching a d'Artagnan-less musketeer show. I always considered Athos and Aramis much more intriguing. I would love to see their "origin" stories, Athos falling for Milady and Aramis becoming a member of the Queen's inner circle of confidants. That has never been shown before.
