- To the Hebrews, Sheol is a place of darkness where the spirits of the dead (or of the wicked dead) went. It was also known as Hades.[4] The exact nature of Sheol in Marvel Comics, and whether or not it is another name for Hades, is unknown. It also may have a connection to the Below-Place and the Green Door.
