Mageddon. Yuga Khan. Mageddon was the old god killer. Yuga was considered the strongest of their number. And loath as I am to talk about it, 3 old god skyfathers split the source according to DOTNG.
Marvel skyfathers are getting gang-raped.

DC zeus is part of the quintessence that DS defines as the protectors of the multiverse. DC Odin was so powerful that DS had to absorb the power of thousdands of pantheons in order to be able to face DS.
Im a fan of the marvel pantheons but I expect DC's versions to be more along the lines of true powers...Ive heard that DC's versions of Odin and Zeus were some bad somebitch's...
MU odin's powers fluctuate a lot, but the definitive measure of how strong marvel's collective skyfathers are would be their performance vs. the celestial host.
Odin + every other asgardian there was + a portion of the power of every other skyfather on the planet got mercilessly curbstomped by a handful of celestials.
That doesn't seem to compare too favorably to "splitting the source in half", so I guess this round goes to DC.
Nothing against marvel mind you: it just seems that "skyfather" is a much much lower rung on the 616 hierarchy than it is in DC.
Don't get me wrong, I like marvels pantheons better...I'm just playing the odds..I know how DC likes to write its big guns..
Marvel Odin was at one time considered to nearly be Big G's equal. I cant remember which writer said it but it was said..Hes got some insane feats from back in the day..He was written down some in the new era to be more approachable by "normal" characters I believe..
