Well, if Monica gets to be named the goddess of light as the replacement for (whoever in the pantheon that was bumped off), that would be a cool development, to me..

I really like Nyx's design. Also, it seems kinda odd that the Olypian's were defeated so easily let alone Zeus of all people.
Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”
Aaron's Thor run won't be continuing very long beyond War of the Realms.

“Great Jove, awaking, shook the blest abodes
With rising wrath, and tumbled gods on gods;
Me chief he sought, and from the realms on high
Had hurl’d indignant to the nether sky,
But gentle Night, to whom I fled for aid,
(The friend of earth and heaven,) her wings display’d;
Impower’d the wrath of gods and men to tame,
Even Jove revered the venerable dame.”
~Homer, The Iliad, Book XIV
The above passage is, of course, Hypnos the god of slumber -- and one of her sons -- recounting to Hera how it was none other than Nyx ("gentle Night") who saved him from the ass kicking that Zeus ("Jove") was about to give him. Nyx is the perfect villain for this or any story. Although in truth, I find it difficult to consider her evil in the classic sense. She is the daughter of Chaos, and one of the few primordial beings to whom both men and gods alike were subject. She is all powerful and truly eternal (there is a mythical telling or two where she supposedly chained Kronos -- the personification of Time -- to her wall). Nothing she does should be perceived in simple terms of good and evil. It will be interesting to see Waid and Ewing's endgame.
Glad there’s no mention of Ares here. Hopefully he may appear but we’ll see.
There’s something about Voyager that I really, really like and I’m not even sure what it is. Hope she’s a constant recurring character when it comes to Avengers. She’s almost like a modern version of what Vision began as.
Since Nyx just seemed to appear on Olympus itself only the Gods who were there may have been in the firing line. This would mean that Pluto and Persephone could have survived due to being in the Underworld and last I checked wasnt Ares apart of the Champions of Europe and so may have not been there either.
