look, omnipotence is a concept that can be only given by author.

many characters in mythologies were stated to be omnipotent.

the monotheistic abrahamic god is considered as an omnipotent, immutable being because of the mix happened between the jewish concept of divinity and godhood which got mixed in with plato's philosophies and concept of the absolute good.

In a way, it exist outside of everything and is omnipotent because plato, an atheistic greek philosopher who lived before judaism was fully realized said so, in a very twisted, non direct way.

this is why it created the conceptualization of an absolute being, a deity who controls everything but is not being controled, a creator which have not been created, a being who interacts with others but non interacts with it.

after years of christian jewish and muslim traditions mixed in with plato's philosophy, it created the consensus about the abrahamic god.

Hence, when a writer base a deity on it and make it the monotheistic deity, we recive it to assume it is an omnipotent being.

however, if we are proven it isn't, or never recive any confirmation from the author it is, we can't say for sure.

Hence why "the word of god", or the confirmation from the author, is the most important thing.

while we assume a monotheistic deity would be omniptoent, because of the religous conceptualization of this idea, only the word of the author can confirm it.

so, yeah, non of the monotheistic deities are really omnipotent.

because we don't have the creator of each of those characters to confirm for us that they are omnipotent.

we can only go by the text information from their stories, feats of each character, and the general consensus of their character.

for example:

the one above all in marvel, let's time I checked, wa snever 100% stated and proven to be completelly omnipotent.

no more then, say, the beyonder was stated to be.

We know this character is omnipotent, because of it's feats, hints from the authors, the text that calls it omnipotent (although the text is very loos about the definition of omnipotence, calling every secon reality warper omnipotent being), and the general consensues that monotheistic, abrahamic deity is omnipotent, and since it is being refered to as capital g God, then yeah.

it is refer to as omnipotent.

simple as that.

This is always the case, if the author does not come up and explicibly sated it's omnipotence.
