Yep. A good emperor. Too bad his son was a psycho. ( were there any Roman Imperial families that weren't dysfunctional?)

They ate food exclusively cooked in lead pots...so no, they all had a lot of crazies.

It’s one of the better examples of the dangers of Nepotism..

I saw a statue of good ol’ Commodus last time I was in Rome. He was depicted as Hercules, as was apparently his thing…

Sounds like Mark should have adhered to #7 and not let his son hurt him
