Mythology is the essence of memorable storytelling. From earliest times people in every part of the world have used oral narratives to describe the mysteries, tragedies, and foibles of human existence.

Stories passed from generation to generation and were often filled with vivid imagery, gross exaggerations, and laced with inaccuracies. Due to the typically authoritarian setting for the storyteller, mythology evolved from simple explanations to the supernatural, the superhero, and the sacred.

The result in all early cultures was complex and fanciful tales of humanoid gods and goddesses who impacted nature, human activities ranging from creation to birth, death, the afterlife, and everything in between. It is a human characteristic to want to believe in the superhuman. The legacy of mythology impacts us all.

Superheroes Pagans & Deities makes the case that mythology and paganism continue to effect our daily lives.
