Venus #10 (1950)

I'd never heard of Venus before, and reading its summary and publication history it seems like it is one of Stan Lee's odd off brand ideas.

I've been here the whole time, and you're not my real Dad! :emo:
From those two panels I am guessing the Roman goddess Venus has decided to work at a beauty magazine in New York City and other gods, in this case Pluto, drop by to get her to solve their problems

Venus is an ancient character from the golden era, who was put in a team of similar characters by Jeff Parker in (the super fun) Agents of Atlas, a decade or so ago.

Her shtick is that she isn't actually the ancient goddess, but she pretended to be at a point, and continues to strive to be a modern goddess of love and unity.

P.S: you should read Agents of Atlas

So does she not actually have superpowers or anything then?

Without spoilering the reveal in Agents of Atlas, she does have the power to enchant anyone into a peaceful state through her singing, often by making people reliving their happiest memories or even fantasies. It's as corny as it sounds, but Jeff Parker made it work.

In the original comics, she's just Venus the goddess, who came to Earth because she was bored of hanging out with the other gods. The comic mixes a bunch of religious pantheons without really thinking about it; for instance, her visitor in those panels is the son of Satan, which means Marvel's claim to that character pre-dates Daimon Hellstrom.
