Summary
Zeus is the King of the Olympian Gods, and one of the most powerful Cosmic Entities in the universe. He is more often than not a neutral being, rarely interfering with mortal affairs and only acting if the threat proves great enough.
Zeus' origins and early history mostly conform to the way they are presented in classical mythology. He is a child of the Titans Cronus and Rhea and leader of the twelve Olympian Gods. During a war between the Titans and Olympians, Zeus slays his father and assumes his place as King of the Gods, ruling from Mount Olympus with his sister-wife Hera. He is the father of numerous gods and heroes, the most famous being Heracles.
Due to the machinations of the alien god Darkseid with the intent of weakening the Greek Deities, spreading tales of the Roman Gods across the world, led the Olympians to split into multiple aspects, with the Roman gods existing for a time as separate entities. Zeus' counterpart Jupiter rules his own Olympus in a separate dimension following this. The two pantheons are merged into single entities again centuries later.
In the New 52 Continuity, Zeus is the father of Wonder Woman.
