Hellfire's Web The sorceress Circe, in her bid to appease her matron goddess Hecate, weaves a spell known as the Hellfire Web, designed to destroy the Earth goddess Gaea herself. To facilitate these ambitions, she awakens the gods of ancient Rome as well those of ancient Greece and manipulates them into battling each other for supremacy of the heavens. While the Greeks may rely upon Wonder Woman to serve as their champion, the Roman Pantheon takes possession of Captain Marvel and the two fight one another.
