That’s one of the reason why I prefer Hades than Zeus. Plus, Hades is more powerful and scarier than Zeus. Zeus would never be able to attack Hades since he has the helm of darkness. Hades would give Zeus a heart attack.

I agree Hades is the better parent, but as to Hades being more powerful. I have to ask if it is as easy as you make it sound why is Hades not king?

There are several reasons why Hades isn’t king.

1. Even though Hades is more powerful, that doesn’t mean he has to be king. Look at Poseidon. He’s more powerful than Zeus and more likable, but he isn’t king either. Zeus is better at ruling than Poseidon and Hades.

2. Hades radiates fear. Everyone doesn’t like being around him. Everyone is afraid of him. Everyone hates him (or doesn’t like him so much). How can he be king if no one wants to be even around him ?

3. After the Titan war, the gods, like 8th said (Hi 8th), drew 3 lots and Hades, got the worst out of the 3. Zeus became the god of the sky, but also the god of ruler, kings and all. Hades didn’t. Also, I guess its fair that Zeus becomes king since he saved all his brothers and sisters.
