Family relations are also common. Since Zeus is Ares' father, their relationship as father - son can be a central theme. It could be about love, conflict, or the passing on of power and wisdom within the family unit. Another aspect is the theme of war and peace. Ares is the god of war and Zeus has to maintain order, so their interactions can be related to whether to start a war or keep the peace.
One of the best is 'Final Crisis'. In this story, Darkseid's plan to reshape reality is opposed by Superman. It shows Superman's unwavering will against Darkseid's tyranny. Another great one is 'Superman: The Darkseid War'. It features an epic battle between them with high - stakes and amazing power displays.
Another theme is the conflict between duty and desire. As gods, they have certain duties in the Greek pantheon, but their feelings for each other can create a conflict with those duties. For example, Zeus has to maintain order among the gods, and his relationship with Ares might be seen as going against that in some fanfictions.
In a 'darkseid vs avengers' fanfiction, it could go many ways. Maybe the Avengers' teamwork and diverse powers would give them an edge. For example, Thor's lightning and Hulk's strength could be used in a coordinated attack against Darkseid.

A theme that often comes up is the clash of ideologies. Percy, with his more modern and empathetic view, against Ares' traditional and often brutal view of war. Also, the theme of heroism is there.
