Truthfully, I think the Olympians will, for the most part, stomp over the Norse Gods. Thor would put up a good fight, no doubt, but Odin against Zeus? I don't see that going well for Odin.

Ray Harryhausen never made a movie based on Norse Mythology.

Running with the Greeks on this one.

Overall I think Olympians would prevail, but I do think Thor would wreck Hercules.

Thor would wreck Hercules, and then Zeus would wreck Thor. :X

The Norse Gods are greater warriors. I'm siding with Old Odin One-Eye and his merry men.

I highly doubt that. Truthfully, nothing I've seen from Odin shows me he has greater power than Zeus. My bet is he wipes the floor with Odin without much effort.

I must agree with you for once on that one.

The only thing is Hercules is only half god. Thor is a full god. Then again, Herc did battle other full gods. I still think Thor could actually defeat Herc.

Samuel L. Jackson said it best in Die Hard with a Vengence. "Zeus as in don't fuck with me or I'll shove a lightening bolt up your ass!" :D

Does Zeus have a day named after him? I don't think so. Odin takes this one. He'd find Zeus and kill him while he was off having sex with something in a weird animal shape.

Since when does having a day named after you qualify you to win a fight? There's a reason Zeus is the king of the skies, which is the symbol for essentially being the most powerful in the world. There's a reason other Gods feared his power, because he was the strongest of the Olympians.

Norse Gods because Manowar sings about them a lot, especially Odin.

It's a tough one.

I say Zeus is pretty damn awesome

But OVERALL, the Norse Gods would overtake the Greek Gods.

Looks like Marvel has touched on this a little bit:

And the All Father is the principle God of Norse mythology. He is directly associated with war, battle, victory and death. He, like all the Norse gods, are warriors to the core. They live for battle.

Odin would ride up Olympus on his eight legged war horse and show Zeus the meaning of battle.

Heres a good summary of all the Thor-Hercules clashes in Marvel. Looks like Herc actually gets the better of Thor..
