One of the things that most caught our attention in the trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder, the new adventure of the son of Odin in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by Taika Waititi, is a scene in which Zeus undresses the protagonist before a large audience in the middle of a gigantic golden room. That the Greek gods exist in the superhero saga just like the Egyptians, the Wakandans and the Nordics arouses our interest. And also that new place.
Is about Omnipotence City. She was created by writer Jason Aaron and artist Esad Ribić for issue three of the comic. Thor: God of Thunder in December 2012. That is to say, only almost a decade ago and, then, it does not constitute a classic Marvelite setting. But neither Kamala Khan or Ms Marvel is a known hero before September 2013, when she was introduced in issue fourteen of Captain Marvel. And it is no less canonical for that.
The only thing we can see in sufficient detail of the huge space complex in Thor: Love and Thunder is he Parliament of Pantheons. In it, the different divinities meet for events and, theoretically, legislate in assembly as what could be considered an intergovernmental institution. And it is supposed to be dedicated to promoting moderate and peaceful behavior of its members. But Zeus’ lack of character and his insistence on orgies make us doubt it.
Omnipotence City, a place for divine concord in ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’
However, in Omnipotence City there is also the Ministry of Justice Interdeitythe High Holy Courtsthe great library of the Halls of the Omniscientthe commercial activities of the Genesis Bazaarin which the gods are said to exchange the future of the different galaxies, or the Entropy Dungeons. However, the sequence of Thor: Love and Thunder there it only allows us to contemplate the aforementioned Parliament and the exteriors of the site.
Its origin dates back between four and twelve billion years in the universe of Earth-616. Was built by the lords of the dawn after the First Great War of the Gods. To avoid such conflicts, signing treaties and contracting marriages that guarantee divine concord. And it shines so much because they used ornaments from the clay of universal creation and even lit it with the embers that served to light the first sun.

In any case, the great disappointment of the character played by Chris Hemsworth with the unpleasant Zeus, whom he admired, and his refusal to fight Gorr, the Butcher of Gods, who intends to massacre them all with the Necrosword, and the frivolous environment that is breathed in the Parliament of Pantheons leads us to doubt that the purpose of the Omnipotence City continues to be that of its ancient foundation. Perhaps, for the sake of laughter for the public of Thor: Love and Thunder.
