Surely were mortals but thats not our name, calling us that feels like they hate us for some reason.

@spiderbat87: Actually, a lot of them are not immortal. Most of the pantheons have superhuman longevity. Hence, they live for a long period of time but they due age. The Olympians, such as Zeus and Hercules, are actually immortal and don't age past their prime. Thor and Odin on the other hand do age. Immortality in comics is typically not being able to DIE. And by die I mean of natural causes like old age. EX: Doctor Strange is immortal in the sense he doesn't age. But he can be KILLED by an outside force. So really, most of the gods are just more powerful than us and live for extremely long periods of time. But many of them do eventually grow old. Odin is the best example of this.

@spiderbat87: When then he say that?

Yeah, and I even figured that their worlds time runs different as us.

I'm jewish.

Same reason why we label animals and call them as we like, in the case of gods they are superior (old texts gave them powers, so there)
