Mine was OS X dictionary IIRC, but here's dictionary.com:
adjective, Also, epical
1.
noting or pertaining to a long poetic composition, usually centered upon a hero, in which a series of great achievements or events is narrated in elevated style:
Homer'sIliad is an epic poem.
2.
resembling or suggesting such poetry:
an epic novel on the founding of the country.
3.
heroic; majestic; impressively great:
the epic events of the war.
4.
of unusually great size or extent:
a crime wave of epic proportions.
5.
Slang. spectacular; very impressive; awesome:
Their burgers and fries are epic!
So if (4) is what you mean, it's not exactly the first definition for the adjective either.
