Vesta or Hestia is a fictional character in the Marvel Comics universe. She first appeared in Thor #301 (November 1980), and was adapted from mythology by Mark Gruenwald, Ralph Macchio, and Keith Pollard.
Vesta is the goddess of the hearth in the Olympian pantheon.
Zeus, Neptune, and Pluto are her brothers, and Hera and Demeter are her sisters.
Vesta was present when Thor came to Olympus to ask for help from Zeus in reviving Asgardians who were slain in battle with the Celestials.
Vesta was present at the funeral of Hercules when Athena laid claim to the throne of Olympus, and did not oppose Athena even though she was the sister of Zeus, because she did not want to rule.
Vesta appeared as part of the "Olympian Gods" entry in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition #9.
