Olympians (Marvel Comics)
The Olympians are a fictional species in the Marvel Comics universe, based loosely on the Twelve Olympians and other deities of Greek mythology. During the beginning of the 1960s, the exploits of the Asgardians Thor and his evil brother Loki demonstrated that an updating of ancient myths could again win readers. In 1965, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby introduced the Olympians in ''Journey into Mystery Annual'' #1.〔(Classics and Comics ), p.112〕〔(The Gospel According to Superheroes: Religion and Pop Culture ), p.67〕
==History==
The Olympians are a race of extra-dimensional beings that possess a variety of mystical superhuman abilities that were once worshipped by civilizations centered on or around the Mediterranean, Agean, Ionian, Tyrrhenian and Ligurian seas such as Greece, the Roman Empire and parts of Egypt and Turkey as gods from roughly 2500 BC until roughly 500 AD. The Olympians are related to every other pantheon of gods that have ever been worshiped on Earth, such as the Asgardians〔''Thor Annual'' #11 (November 1983)〕 and the Gods of Heliopolis〔''Thor & Hercules: Encyclopaedia Mythologica'' (September 2009)〕 (ancient Egypt) because Gaea, the spirit that represents life on Earth, was the mother of the first race of gods to appear on Earth.〔''The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition'' #9 (1985)〕 The various pantheons that exist today are the descendants of these earlier gods. It is believed that the Olympians were born somewhere on Earth but currently reside in another dimension that is adjacent to Earth known as Olympus. One known entrance to this realm is actually located atop Mount Olympus in Greece.〔''Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe'' #12 (December 1983)〕〔(Marvel Comics in the 1970s: An Issue-by-Issue Field Guide to a Pop Culture Phenomenon ), p. 97〕
