A superior god seen as creator (6)
I believe the answer is:
author
'creator' is the definition.
(author is a kind of creator)
'a superior god' is the wordplay.
'superior' becomes 'u' (I've seen this in other clues).
'god' becomes 'thor' (Thor is an example**).
'a'+'u'+'thor'='AUTHOR'
'seen as' is the link.
(Other definitions for author that I've seen before include "Literary creator" , "Generator, source" , "Producer of written work" , "Ours wrote as Edward" , "Originator" .)
