In real mythology... The creators of the Marvel Appendix actually had this on their site, but when they started writing the Handbooks, they changed it, so now their own website doesn't match the handbooks. Yes, it gets very confusing...

As far as the gods in the MU, no offense, I think of them as cartoon characters sharing names with mythological beings. Since Marvel as well as DC has their own takes on these characters, I don't add anything remotely mythological to them because as you know, "it just does not apply," not even regarding the Olympian Gods which almost everyone is familiar with.

If you want to know the real histories of these characters, I've got my own site for that which includes only their more important media appearances, but I get really frustrated when I make the effort to the MU, only to see it erased. So you can understand why I don't do it -
