That's because in mythology all three are equal sons of Chronos. I don't think Marvel or even DC ever really adhered to that.

that is not true.The Gods turned on Zeus since they were pissed at him for being a dick and they were all equally as powerful and yet, he was King.
So they chained him up while he was sleeping and were going to kill him or some sh** but the hundred handers showed up to save him and help Zeus fight the gods.
But that right there, proves it's true.
They had to chain him up when he was sleeping. 😉

True. I think I even read somewhere that Marvel asgardians aren't even god's in the same way that say, the Olympians are. Their immortality is granted by golden apples or some such.

It would hardly seem far-fetched , considering how the Marvel Hindu Pantheon has three skyfathers as well .
It always seemed weird to me that they even bother with the Hindu pantheon considering that it's a major world religion.
The Greek and Norse religions are dead and are now simply myths. Over a billion people consider the Hindu religion as truth.

I was originally trying to scale the total distance they moved during this fight, but that proved to be a bit of a pain, so I figured I could just do what Thanatoseraph did in his Zimmerman's Valley calc. This has qualifying marathon speed at 3.8889 m/s. (Of course this is a huge lowball, since both Nate and Ares are far above peak human physical speed). The subjective time passed during this fight, keeping that lowball speed in mind, I think shouldn't have been any less than 10 seconds. (It would realistically be longer if you took into account Nate's speech before Ares arrived, but talking is a free action, whatever, and I'm being conservative here). 3.8889 m/s in 10 seconds = 38.889 meters. This all took place in less than a planck instant, which is equal to 5.39106e-44 seconds. This translates to a speed of 7.213609197e44 m/s, or 2,406,201,025,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000c.

Eh, I really don't see that as a speed feat at all. From the scans, it looks to me like X-Man basically was outside time, except really time was just slowed down to the "'Planck length' between moments"'.
Color me skeptical.

Although , the Hindu equivalent of Zeus or Odin should be Indra , not Brahma/Vishnu/Shiva .
Based on the way they have been historically portrayed , Brahma/Vishnu/Shiva should more be the equivalent of Eternity/Galactus/Death or Order/In-Betweener/Chaos .
