    Other questions: if Hades had this Olympian Crystal that can kill gods AND if Hades can poof himself to other realms (see: 515, The Brothers Jones) why didn’t he poof himself to Olympus and y’know…kill the gods until everyone relented and agreed to let Hades be king of Olympus??

    I always thought in a sense that since Zeus was the most powerful God, he could more than likely survive an ambush like that and actually make Hades punishment worse than the first time.

    So he decided to just settle for ruling Earth instead? (Or was it just Storybrook?)

    Hades just doesn’t seem like much of a ‘settler’ to me.

    If Hades feels he’s incapable of going after Olympus for whatever reason, then why SB? There are more populated, richer, more diverse, easier (read: lack of magical beings) places to conquer with his glowy object. Like, Paris? New York City? Athens? Beijing? Any of the major California cities? Moscow?

    Haha this gave me a chuckle.  Yeah there are many questions that died with this character and it is a shame we never got to see him with Zeus in a flashback.  But given that Zeus is basically playing God here, my guess is we may see him again, and if we see him again, maybe we will get a flashback with Hades and him at some point down the road.

    But yes I too think this was their best villain in awhile.  It’s unfortunately they muddled him a bit with inconsistent motivations and inconsistent power, with zero flashback to help sort out the confusion.
