    Default Oh my God!! - a tribute to DC's gods and various pantheons

    I'm gonna be real with you, I got this idea because I was watching American Gods for the umpteenth time and was wondering what the landscape of DC's deities and various patheons looks like. Not just the New Gods, all the gods including ones based on real cultures and ones from other planet's cultures. are there any god heroes (a la Thor) or gods who were used that who you would like to see used again?

    Planet:


    Regions:


    Other:
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    I would like for DC to fully acknowledge Ice as a god.

    Absolutely. I'd like to see her associated with a post-Ragnarok Norse pantheon where Odin, Thor and Loki have fallen, and Baldur is the all-father.

    I'd like to see the Celtic Pantheon again. We got to see a couple of them in Batman/WonderWoman so it would be cool to explore the others!

    I'd like to see the Egyptian gods get more development. If Anita Fite returns maybe the Loa can be seen.

    Don't know if they count: They're definitely channeling different pantheons.

    Definitely. We get tons of Greek/Roman and / or Norse gods developed in sword-and-sandal movies or Marvel comics or whatever, so it would be neat to see some other pantheons get a push from DC, and the Egyptian pantheon already has a potential foot in the door through characters like Dr. Fate, Captain Marvel/Shazam and Hawkman. Plus it could be time to finally get that Golden Pharoah character.

    I'm less comfortable with the loa getting developed too much, since that religion is still quite a bit more active in the real world (maybe 'only' a half million or so practitioners, but still more than active Thor-worshipper Asatru), and a crappy comic book portrayal of Baron Samedi as a cackling super-villain or whatever sounds kind of disrespectful, in the vein of making Jesus a superhero, or whatever.
