Hercules cannot defeat Zeus, however strong he may be as Zeus is a god and the king of all the gods.


Was Hera Hercules' Mother?

No. Hercules' mother was a mortal named Alcmena. His father was indeed, Zeus, king of the gods. Hera hated Hercules not only because it wasn't her son, but also because Zeus loved Hercules more than her. This made Hera jealous. Disney was not faithful to Greek mythology with their 1997 animated theatrical film, "Hercules". In this movie, Hera was Hercules' mother and both she and Zeus loved him very much. Zeus seems a faithful husband to Hera. In Greek mythology, he wasn't, at least by our standards.

Why did sandrak kid Hercules father go to jail?

Hercules' father, Zeus, did not go to jail in the traditional sense, as he is a character from Greek mythology and is typically depicted as a powerful god rather than a mortal subject to human laws. However, in various retellings and adaptations of the Hercules myth, there may be instances where characters face consequences for their actions. If you are referring to a specific modern adaptation or story featuring Hercules, please provide more details for a more accurate answer.


How do you go to Zeus and get the items back on Mythology island?

When Zeus steals the 5 sacred items, you have to get help from Poseidon and Hades. Hercules will finally help you if you have the Touchscreen mirror from Aphrodite. Travel to Hades and get the Hades Crown, then to Poseidon's realm to get his Trident. These two weapons will prove more than a match for Zeus. Hercules will get you past the locked gate and you can travel to Olympus. You will need the drachma from the Temple of Hades worker in order to climb Olympus. If you battle Zeus and win, you receive the Island Medallion. (see the related question)

Which Greek god is more powerful Hercules or Atlas?

Atlas is a god he was one of the first Greek gods. The Olympian Gods dethroned the "Titans". (Which Atlas was one of the Titans.) He received the most harsh punishment of all the Titans, carrying the heavens on his back and bearing the weight forever, given to him by the King of the gods Zeus. But Hercules (or Heracles) is not a god. His Father is Zeus but his mother is mortal. To answer your question..... Hercules was able to hold the heavens on his shoulders just as well as Atlas, and Hercules did more things that proved his strength (like killing the Lion of Nemea) than Atlas did. Atlas on the other hand never had any real amazing stories just that he held up the heavens. So based on the facts of mythology Hercules seems much more powerful just not a god.


Was Hercules one of the Greek gods?

No, he was the son of Zeus and a mortal woman. Actually, his Greek name is Heracles, Hercules is Roman. Heracles means "glory of Hera". Zeus named him this in honor of Hera to pacify her because she became extremely angry when she learned that Zeus cheated on her. Even so, Hera drove Heracles into mad rages, causing him to kill his wife and children. The Twelve Labors of Heracles was his punishment. As I remember, there ended up being more than twelve in the end, but that's another story.
