seriously, you seem to overpowering Zeus to level of Living Tribunal or something.
What makes Zeus so powerful that can destroy a powerful mutant like Apocalypse and then take on someone who can warp reality.
THEN even if he does he can beat someone who has the powers of all 7 characters.
Zeus with his superhuman strength, durability, energy manipualation, teleporting, shapesifting and size manipulation beats someone with all those same powers and can also alter their own molecular structure, other people's molecuar structure and warp reality itself
like I said, he can't take the reality warping SW. poccy on the other end is an insect to him. the ammount of energy he can dish out with a single lighting bolt could kill apocalypse. he is a skyfather, the most powerfull of the olympians, he can even control their lifeforce at will. to make this short, he is roughly on par with odin who can destroy galaxies.
Ok. If this was true and the power of the lightning bolt could kill Apocalypse fair enough.
But is it? Apocalypse has Superhuman Durability and Regen Healing powers as well as Zeus. Apocalypse can also fly, teleport and has superhuman speed and reflexes like Zeus probably does. So is Apocalypse just gonna stand there and let himself be hit?
Zeus opens gateways between dimensions and teleports. he gives superpowers to lesser beings and charge his blows with magic to beat the hulk into a pulp in a straight fist fight that leaves his healing factor weakened for weeks afterwards. he can drop high heralds with a single lihgtning bolt and is far more resistant to injury than apocalypse. he changes shape and size at will and has picked up and dumped mountains on his enemies.
most people who debate in the forums recognize a tier system with the following classes:
street: alfred (low), batman (high);
metahuman: wolverine (low), ironman (high);
herald: from storm to the Silver Surfer;
trans: high evolutionary, darkseid, thanos, annihilus, etc.;
skyfather: odin, zeus and the likes;
elder god: father set, cthon;
cube being (their ranking below some of the lower abstracts is controversial): molecule man and beyonder;
Zeus is Olympian. He hardly ever appears in any stories compared to other characters.
Why are Olympians seen as so much more powerful than mutants?
Olympian>Human
Mutant>Human
Is there some rule saying Mutant never>Olympian?
Unless of course you are a reality warper?
Some mutants have powers than seem a lot greater than Zeus powers yet they still ranked below simply because he is Olympian?
Also in that established tier you have Scarlet Witch 3 tiers above Zeus yet people are saying Zeus stomps including Scarlet Witch and Rogue with powers of Scarlet Witch and 6 other characters!?!
I read description of Olympians in Marvel. Says they are about 3 times stronger than HUMANS.
Seems to be quite massive leap to put Zeus the most powerful Olympian WAY above MUTANTS when average Olympian is 3 times stronger than a mere human.
system is based on their feats and how they fair against each other when they fight in comics not considering PIS moments
Olympians arent all the same in power and Zeus>>>>>>>>>>the rest of his kind, he is the strongest of them all.
mutant power levels vary greatly from each individual to the next, they can range from street to high abstarct level, so there are mutants more powerfull than Zeus, but they are rare.
people posting here are ignoring the strongest and most recent incarnation of the SW. this is usually done because it would be spite against almost everybody else in comics to be set against her and because she has stopped using her powers consciously and is living like a regular human with no memory of her past. but she was never depowered and has warped reality arround her subconsciously, so I always treat her as the same character that destroyed and recreated all the universes in existence.
as for the average mutant vs the average olympian, most mutants are below the proeminent olympians.
as for Zeus>>>>>>>>>Olympian. In my opinion this is too great a power difference.
Zeus>>Hercules>>Olympian makes more sense to me.
Is there an origin or explanation as to why Zeus is considered>>>>>>>>>>>>Olympian, or has it just escalated to that gap because of many stories constantly upgrading power?
I think should have
LT>>Eternity>>>>Celestials>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Earth based characters
Then for mutants have them in some kind of class system 1 to 5
Class 5 - Scarlet Witch
Class 4 - Apocalypse
and so on
Then Zeus I would put on a par with class 3 or 4. I dont think he should be placed above most mutants just because he is Olympian.
His power list does not even sound impressive compared to others.
Lots of stories are full of PIS no when everyone always uses feats and fights to organise the tier, its not very reliable.
Its almost like people still worship as a God, he not God he just another being from different dimension. Mutant humans are not inferior.
