Janus are the Roman god of transitions, beginnings, and endings. They don't have a Greek equivalent.[1]
History
Janus' future aspect
Janus split into two halves, the male turned to the past and the female to the future. Janus' future aspect seized the God Scraper blade from the forges of Hephaestus, using it to slay all the gods of all the pantheons to at once bury the past and allow the new to come.[1]
When Janus's future aspect separated from their past aspect, she took on the appearance of the God-Queen of Asgard,[2] which was actually a mental construct created by Dr. Psycho identical to Wonder Woman to combat her. Janus's intention with this was to take the place given to Diana among the Gods of Olympus as the last to ascend to the pantheon.[1]
Forgotten on Olympus and without worshippers, little by little Janus are petrifying, clinging to the faint memory left in the minds of mortals, becoming a statue in the divine gardens.[3]
