OVERVIEW

Vulcan is the Roman god of the forge and blacksmiths, the equivalent of the Greek Hephaestus. For about 3,000 years, the Greek and Roman versions of the Olympians (including Zeus/Jupiter) were separate entities. They were only recently merged again. In modern times, Vulcan and his wife Venus adopted and sponsored the crippled human reporter in his career as the superhero Son of Vulcan.

He has also inspired both villains and heroes with fire powers.
