Skyfather vs Odin

Highfather vs. Odin

Who wins?

Skyfather generally refers to a group of people (Odin among them). Is there a Skyfather character I'm unaware of? Highfather's a character (DC, New Gods, etc.). But that's about it.

My bad. I mean Highfather.

Odin.

Odin wins, Oh and Skyfather is coined as a marvel description for the head of a Pantheon

Meh, that link that u posted seemed useless.
I never heard the person or a New God being described as a Skyfather in DC, I did read in Marvel books a few times, usually books with Odin in it.

But i can be wrong 😬

Companies borrow ideas and terms constantly. Origin company doesn't really matter, and would likely be impossible to figure out for sure...it's more synonymous with Odin and the other pantheon leaders in Marvel, regardless of where it was started.

odin

Odin

Odin could take on three high fathers and smash them all.

Odin is far beyond the level of any New God. Average DC gods are more powerful than average Marvel ones but the few strong gods of every Marvel pantheon are probably stronger than any god of most DC pantheons.

Orly? Becuz Odin, Zeus and Jove Pwned the combined Source. and Odin says that DS had grown powerful enough to actually challenge him.

When did Odin say that? Marvel Odin or DC Odin? And the source must be pretty weak. DC sky fathers don't destroy galaxies or own heralds or do any of those things. I know it seems overplayed but it's true that even when Darkseid was powerful he had to take (post Crisis) Superman seriously. I just don't see a galaxy-buster being that weak. DC's sky fathers just don't strike me as being that powerful. In truth I've always thought that DC pantheons were like the strongest superhero teams. They're really powerful compared to most, but not all heroes, but they're not really cosmic. The fact that it was once stated (I forget which character by) that Superman at age 17 was equal to any Greek or New God gives me a hard time believing that DC's gods register on the universe's power meter the way Marvel's used to. The same Superman who strains to move the moon even with WW and GL's help? The same Superman who gets a power-up (sun dip) and still strains to move the Earth with WW and MM's help? He wouldn't even catch Marvel Odin's attention. I believe I saw a scan where Thor actually says that Galactus' power rivals even Odin's (and therefore, one can assume vice versa to be true, but then again this was back in the Silver Age when the Asgardians were a lot more important than in later times). DC skyfathers must take Superman seriously...Marvel Odin, I believe, once destroyed galaxies and shook the multiverse.

Weak? No that shows how extremely powerful they are, tho the Source knew about it before hand but didn't change a thing as it was suppose to happen.. 😉

DC skyfather's are weak? And yet they somenow power Black Adam, Captain Marvel, Wonder Woman, Wonder Girl, Black Mary, Stayne, Takion, Etc. Do oyu know that New gods have created and held universes in thier hands? These are lessor Gods. far under DS or DS. And DC odin is one of the mightiest of Gods. Able to create a pocket universe to hold surtur. the same guy who was stalemating a 5d imp and the jsa. Do you read dc? Or just look at scans that haters on the other boards put up. You know the ones put up out of context. Superman was not sun amped when HOLDING THE EARTH in orbit. YOu should do some research before taking the time out to type of whole paragraph of crap.
