Neptune, also called Poseidon, is a fictional character in Marvel Comics and is based on the Roman God with the same name. Neptune is the god of the sea in the Olympian pantheon, and the patron god of Atlantis. ==Fictional character biography== Neptune is the son of Cronus and Rhea, and was born in Mount Olympus. Zeus and Pluto are his brothers, and Hera and Vesta are his sisters. Neptune is responsible for the evolution of ''Homo mermanus'', and is still honored by the Atlanteans, unlike many Olympians who have little or no worshippers on Earth. Two millennia ago, Neptune destroyed an Atlantean cult of worshipers of Set. He later lived among the Atlanteans for many years as their protector.〔as revealed in ''Spectacular Spider-Man Annual'' #9〕 In modern times, Neptune sent Namor the Sub-Mariner on a quest for his trident in order to regain the Atlantean throne, appearing before him at various points.〔''Tales to Astonish'' #70〕 Neptune then appeared to the Atlanteans, and decreed Namor the true ruler of Atlantis.〔''Tales to Astonish'' #75〕 Neptune later advised Namor of the true destiny of Atlantis.〔''Sub-Mariner'' #68〕 Later, Neptune healed a wounded Namor, and transformed a drowning stallion into a giant seahorse.〔''Marvel Fanfare'' #16〕 Neptune later abducted Namor from Atlantis to Hades at the behest of Zeus, as Zeus blamed the Avengers for Hercules' bad physical condition.〔''Avengers'' #282〕 However, Neptune was then forbidden to return to Earth by Zeus, despite his objections due to Atlantean worship.〔''Avengers'' #285〕 Most recently, he, along with the other Olympians have dwelt on Earth once more, following the death of Zeus. In a weakened state, he was abducted by Hippolyta and her Amazon warriors, at the behest of Hera and Pluto, who forced him to cede his shares of the Olympus Group to them, facilitating their takeover. The Amazon princess Artume likewise forced from him the location of the Omphalos. He was rescued from Artume's clutches by Hercules, Namor, and Namora.〔''Incredible Hercules'' #122-123〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neptune (Marvel Comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
