Mythicals with a good interpretation in cartoons

By "god" I mean Christian God, not the god as in something so powerful and such, since Greek myths have plenty of those.

Well, it's two different notions of divinity that use the same term in every language. One is a creator and the other is tabloid fare in places. A number of ancient Greek philosophers speculated on origins of myths they probably disliked or were uncomfortable about or simply felt required defending/explaining. When I visited the Vatican Museum about 10 years back, I saw this Hermes/Mercury statue wearing a toga but with the head of Anubis or some other Egyptian Jackal god.

Ever see the movie Adaptation? It gave a good sense of the source material, the story was the attempt to adapt it into a movie and it ended with a car chase. I'm sure some people picked up the book after seeing it but I just had a good night at the movies with it.

Speaking of Anubis - poor guy. He's actually a god of justice but is portrayed as evil due to being related to death.
