As a short answer I didn't see here yet... Craig Send a noteboard - 14/05/2011 07:18:59 AM
We're talking Marvel "mythology" here, not actual honest-to-Frigga Norse Mythology. As Tim pointed out, the basic idea is "what if those guys we thought were gods were just not from around here?" But then Marvel also has nearly fifty years of back-story and development that they've put into Thor, and that's what you were seeing here.

Now, all that said - I can't lie and say it didn't bug me when Odin lost his eye in battle with the Frost Giants. Everyone knows that he actually put his eye in Mimir's well in exchange for wisdom and knowledge. :rolleyes:
I am made of poison.

I hope they'll be smart enough to re-use the best combat morphs Cannoli - 12/05/2011 12:51:47 PM 823 Views
The whole point of that was that the Howler's weren't that deadly! Come on, man. *NM* Kronin al'Sulc - 12/05/2011 04:00:28 PM 382 Views
I thought it was that the animorphs were idiots and Rowling realized she couldn't play zoologist.... Cannoli - 12/05/2011 08:28:04 PM 742 Views
For stealth/recon missions, those morphs were useless. Kronin al'Sulc - 13/05/2011 01:09:55 AM 827 Views

I am torn on seeing this Camilla - 12/05/2011 09:21:56 AM 874 Views
Great post. But I think you've got the wrong idea about mythological accuracy. Tim - 12/05/2011 09:22:07 AM 1040 Views

Amusing, but like so often, you are over-analyzing things ironclad - 12/05/2011 11:35:34 AM 846 Views
Well, I am fairly certain that even Bruce Banner could take the guy from Kids Are Alright, Cannoli - 12/05/2011 12:54:59 PM 843 Views

I'm a fan of the Blood Ravens reference. A genius stroke, sir! *NM* Macharius - 12/05/2011 02:10:53 PM 353 Views
Good to know someone got it, Lord Solar. I guess there's no Heinlen love on this site. *NM* Cannoli - 12/05/2011 08:22:41 PM 315 Views
