Zeus

Zeus's powers and abilities

• Olympian Deity Physiology: Zeus possesses the conventional superhuman attributes of an Olympian Deity. However, as Skyfather of the Olympian gods, many of these abilities are vastly superior to those possessed by the vast majority of his race. Indeed, in recent stories he managed to defeat The Hulk who was at his normal levels, and Galactus in combat (though it's worth noticing that Zeus was possessed by the Chaos King in the latter case). Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet classified him at the same power level of Galactus and Odin.
  
  
• Superhuman Strength: Like all Olympians, Zeus is superhumanly strong. His strength is far superior to the vast majority of his race and he is capable of lifting over 100 tons, without supplementing his strength with his other powers. He is physically the second strongest of the Olympians, surpassed only by his son, Hercules; however, he can match or surpass Hercules by only boosting himself with his other powers.
  
  
• Superhuman Speed: Zeus is capable of running and moving at speeds much greater than even the finest human athlete, enabling him to run 111-115 mph.
  
  
• Superhuman Agility: Zeus' agility, balance, and bodily coordination, have been conditioned to levels that are far superior to the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.
  
  
• Superhuman Reflexes: Zeus' reflexes have been greatly conditioned and are much more superior to the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.
  
  
• Godlike Stamina: Zeus' highly advanced physiology generates almost no fatigue toxins during physical activity, enabling to sustain almost indefinitely. As a result, he possesses almost limitless superhuman stamina. His stamina is matched among the Olympians only by his brothers Pluto and Neptune and his sons Ares, Hercules, and Hermes.
  
  
• Superhumanly Dense Tissue: Zeus' skin, muscle, bone, and all other bodily tissues have 3 times the density of the same tissue in the body of a human being. This contributes somewhat, to Zeus' superhuman strength and weight.
  
  
• Invulnerability: Zeus' body is highly resistant to all forms of physical injury, far more so than the vast majority of his race. He is capable of withstanding great impact forces, exposure to temperature and pressure extremes, falls from tremendous heights, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury. He withstood a full-powered blast from Galactus, resulting in the latter to acknowledge that no mere skyfather could easily shrug-off Galactus's cosmic powers. He also withstood a getting struck by Mjolnir with no sign of injury. His resistance to injury among the Olympians is matched only by Pluto.
  
  
• Regenerative Healing Factor: Like all Olympians, if injured, Zeus is capable of healing himself with superhuman speeds and efficiency, enabling him to heal all injuries.
[38] He is even capable of regenerating missing limbs or organs if necessary. Among the Olympians, his healing powers are equaled only by those of his brother Pluto.


• Self Sustenance: Zeus is almost completely self sustained, he does not require air, and does not need to eat or drink.
  
  
• Immortality: Like all other Olympians, Zeus is functionally immortal. He is immune to aging and has not aged since reaching adulthood. He cannot die by any conventional means. Zeus is also immune to all known Earthly diseases and infections. He has even be reborn at times.
  
  
• Magical Manipulation: Zeus possess vast magical powers of an unknown nature, which surpass the magic-wielding powers of any other Olympian god. Zeus can generate and manipulate other forms of energy as well. Only a small number of the ways in which Zeus can utilize his superhuman abilities are as yet known. His magic manipulation is powerful enough to overpower both Thor and Silver Surfer.
  
  
• Spell Casting: Among these are the augmentation of physical strength and endurance and the enchantment of living beings or of objects. Zeus can create interdimensional apertures through which he can transport himself and even the entire Olympian army.
  
  
• Energy Avatar: He can project his image, voice, and energy bolts from the Olympian dimension into that of Earth.
  
  
• Shape-Shifting: Zeus can change his shape into that of other humanoid beings (as when he impersonated Amphitryon, the husband of Hercules' mother Alcmena), of animals, or even of objects.
  
  
• Energy Projection: In addition to being able to manipulate energy, he can project it in vast quantities offensively or defensively. His energy projection is vast enough to match Odin and Galactus or destroy entire galaxies. However, his powers are still inferior to universe level beings, such as Eternity.
  
  
• Flight: During Chaos War, Zeus has been shown to levitate and fly.
  
  
• Electrokinesis: Zeus's ability to generate tremendous amounts of electrical energy and to project them from his hands in the form of lightning bolts has become his trademark, and his ability to manipulate lightning was shown to greatly exceed that of Thor.
  
  
• Precognition: Zeus also has limited precognitive abilities, and in ancient times was the patron of an oracle at Dodona, through which he delivered prophesies. These abilities enabled Zeus, at the time of the Trojan War, to "remember" the Asgard-Olympus war which had occurred centuries afterwards.
  
  
• Allspeak: Due to the Allspeak (also called All-Tongue), Zeus can communicate in all languages, Earth's dialects, and various alien languages.
  
  

Abilities

• Skilled Combatant: Zeus is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant and is particularly skilled at employing his vast energy manipulating abilities including lightning bolts in combat situations, making him virtually invincible. He is shown to have enough skill to defeat the Hulk in hand to hand combat.
