while I like the idea...

While I like the idea that the Atlanteans, or at least the royal family, are desended from Neptune... I've seen little evidence of it (beyond the familial way in which "Father Neptune" is often addressed).
Also, this family tree seems to show Thanos and Eros as related to the Greek gods... they aren't. They are the sons of Mentor, who is himself decended from the early Eternals (pre-immortality) and distantly the Uranians.
There are a lot of similarities between the Eternals and the Greek gods (no accident of Kirby's) but they aren't cannonically connected.
