How are Thor and Zeus and Poseidon different from each other?
Zeus and Poseidon are brothers with different areas of influence in the Greek mythos (Zeus rules the air, Poseidon rules the sea). Thor is from a completely different mythology (Norse). Like Zeus, he's a thunder god, but unlike Zeus, he's not also the king of the gods. In Norse mythology, Thor is the son of the king of the gods, Odin/Wotan. When the Romans were trying to decide which of these barbarian gods matched up with which of their obviously correct system of gods for the purposes of deciding whose "day" it was, they matched Wotan with Mercury (both have a connection with communication) and Thor with Jupiter/Jove (both are thunder gods), ignoring the whole "king" bit. This is why Romance languages and Germanic languages have different names for the days of the week (compare French "Mercredi" and "Jeudi" with the English names for those days, which pretty obviously derive from "Wodansday" and "Thorsday" respectively).
Is Thor immortal?
No, unlike Greek gods Norse gods can die.
