(Captain America's Weird Tales#74) - The Red Skull went to the lower region and managed to write Captain America's name in the Fatal Book, the book in which those who would be damned were found. At midnight Captain America was taken to the river Styx. Charon introduced himself and brought Captain America on his ferry to the Master Judge of the Lower Depths. (see comments)

(Suspense#18) <1952> - Fleeing from the authorities through the swamps (presumably somewhere in the US) murderer Cain Denis found a ferryman's hut and holding him at gunpoint forced the befuddled ferryman to bring him to the other side of the river even though the ferryman told him that he was waiting for someone else. When the ferryman learned that Cain was a murderer and would be hung if he was caught the ferryman he gladly took Cain with him because now he knew that Cain was the one he was waiting for. The ferryman revealed himself to be Charon, who took Cain to the other side of the river Styx to the underworld.

(Spellbound#31) <1956> - Businessman Preston financed two professors' hunt for the treasures the Incas lost while fleeing from Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro's men in the Amazon jungle. The treasure hunt was without success though Preston was arrogant and believed money could buy him everything. One night he set out with the map by his own and found a river where a key could be seen on the map. He knocked on the door of a hut and asked the old man inside to bring him across the river, but the man told him that it was forbidden. Preston offered him more money each time the man told him he wasn't allowed to do it, but when Preston offered him 10,000 dollars, Charon, the old man inside began to consider taking Preston across the river Styx even though it was forbidden to take the living to the other side.

(Thor I#462)- In modern years, Charon delivered the war-god Ares to Pluto, who wanted his allegiance in using Thor's brief madness as a weakness to attack him.

(Thor Annual I#19)- Charon transported Pluto through Tartarus while Pluto examined various people he had imprisoned there while scheming a new attack on Thor.

(Hercules III#5) - Charon ferreyed Hercules, television producer Gordon Allsworth, Jimmy the cameraman, and Robert the assistant across the River Styx. When Robert told him that he loved him on "Tales From the Crypt," Charon broke his thousands of years of silence to curse Robert out and throttle him.

(Incredible Hercules#129) - When Hercules, Amadeus Cho and Aegis approached him to get a ride on the River Styx, Charon, who was still angry for breaking his silence the last time Hercules came to him, demanded ten thousand gold chips from him as payment. Amadeus Cho won enough chips and Charon was sure that he would be punished again for bringing Hercules and his friends to Tartarus.

(Chaos War: Ares#1) - In a cruel joke on Ares after his death at the hands of the Sentry (Bob Reynolds) Pluto had Charon seemingly deliver Ares to the Elysian Fields only to thwart him entering the Elysian Fields each time and abduct him from Charon's boat and cast him into the lowest gates of Hades.

SECRET WARS III HAPPENED

(Deadpool vs. Thanos#3) - Charon was fleeing from a war in Hell when Deadpool, Thanos and Black Talon dropped into the Styx. Mistaking Charon for his beloved Death Deadpool kissed Charon before Thanos and Black Talon could warn him that it was actually the ferryman. Charon crawled back to his boat to escape after Deadpool released him from his embrace.

In Etruscan Myth, Charon is called the son of Mantus (Hades) and Mania (either Persephone or Hecate). This is obviously erroneous.
    --Obvious to whom?

The ocean goddess Eurynome is also mother of the three Charities (Roman Graces) known as Pasithea (wife of Hypnos), Euphrosyne and Aglaea (Roman Charis, second wife of Hephaestus) by Zeus. If the account of Eurynome as Charon’s grandmother were true, the Charities would be his aunts.

The twist in the end assures that the story was not a dream. The Red Skull in this story was not identified. Follow the link to Albert Malik's profile to learn more about it. Captain America should be Jeff Mace, but it is also possible that it was already the Communist hunting fake "Steve Rogers". The "Master Judge of the Lower Depths" most likely was Pluto. The only problem with this story is that Charon seemingly broke his silence which would make Hercules in his 2005 title a liar which wouldn't be a big surprise.
