What national and racial myths have been incorporated into Marvel comics?

Nordic mythology, also known as Norwegian mythology, is a unique myth system in Scandinavia. Its formation time is later than other major myth systems in the world. Its oral communication history can be traced back to 1-2 century. It was first popular in Norway, Denmark and Sweden, and spread northward to Iceland and other places with a group of immigrants around the 7th century.

In the Marvel universe, Odin, Thor, Loki and Hella are all important gods in Nordic mythology, but it is worth mentioning that the Nordic gods inside and outside the play are quite different. Loki is also the god of tricks in Nordic mythology, but he is not Odin's son but Odin's righteous brother. Although Loki is much younger than Odin, Loki is an extremely important god in Nordic mythology and plays an extremely important role in the twilight of the gods.

As a dead girl, Hella is not Odin's first child in mythology. She is the youngest daughter of Loki and frost giant Angrboda, and her brothers are Fenrir the giant wolf and Jormungandr the giant snake. On the other hand, Thor is very similar to the myth itself. In Norse mythology, Thor is the god of thunder and power, and the most powerful warrior in Norse mythology. With infinite power, one person can drive away just a few giant warriors and make the giants who are enemies of God feel frightened.

The Ancient Greek Gods in Marvel Comics

In addition to Nordic mythology, there are also heroes in ancient Greek mythology in the Marvel universe. For example, Hercules, a good friend of Raytheon in Marvel comics, also has a well-known name Hercules.

Hercules is the greatest hero in ancient Greek mythology. Son of Zeus and alcmene, he was framed by Zeus' wife Hera because of his birth. Later, he completed the task of 12 called "hero authentication". In addition, he rescued Prometheus who was bound, concealed his identity, joined Jason's heroic adventure team, and won the Golden Sheep.

After his death, he climbed the holy mountain of Olympus and became a Hercules. He punishes evil and promotes good, and dares to fight. In today's western world, Hercules has become synonymous with strength.

There are still many mythical characters in the Marvel universe that are not mentioned in the above article, and they are still waiting for friends to explore and explore. But even God has many things that he can't do.
