Fictional Character Biography
Apollo is the son of Zeus, and brother to Artemis. He was born on Mount Cynthus, on the island of Delos, in the Mediterranean Sea. He now resides with the rest of the pantheon in Olympus.
Apollo was present at a time of war between Asgard and Olympus, and opposed the conflict. He was also present when Zeus granted power to Thor to help resurrect the Asgardian gods. Apollo aided Thor and the other gods in opposing Demogorge. Apollo was consumed by Demogorge, but was then released unharmed. When Hercules's battle garb was destroyed, Apollo traveled to Earth and presented him with new battle garb. When Hercules was gravely wounded fighting the Masters of Evil, Zeus blamed the Avengers for his condition. Apollo sought to aid the Avengers in Olympus against the wrath of Zeus, but was struck down by Zeus. He later healed the injuries that Zeus had caused to Captain America and Doctor Druid.
Apollo, Artemis, and Hephaestus appear in a meeting with Hera and Pluto, where Hera reveals her plans to them. Athena reached out to Apollo, but he refused to aid her, preferring to "wait and see". Apollo later appeared at Herclues' funeral, in the company of Athena (now the leader of the Olympians after the deaths of Zeus and Hera), Pluto, Neptune, and Hebe.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional, character and/or biography:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“I prize the purity of his character as highly as I do that of hers. As a moral being, whatever it is morally wrong for her to do, it is morally wrong for him to do. The fallacious doctrine of male and female virtues has well nigh ruined all that is morally great and lovely in his character: he has been quite as deep a sufferer by it as woman, though mostly in different respects and by other processes.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
“The best part of a writer’s biography is not the record of his adventures but the story of his style.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
