I like how Odin is like "Thor can take care of himself", and then Jane explains everything and then he goes "Okay, let's go..."

That ending is brutal. Too bad they couldn't just erase his memory of everything that connected him to Thor, send him back to Earth to live out a life as simple Dr. Donald Blake.

@harikiran4339 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah but thor had lots of rough stuff happening one after another, making him more brutal( first it was the god butcher, followed by black winter, then knull, now this dude is just done with all of this). Oden was gonna end him, give him the mercy that Blake was asking. But thor wanted Blake to feel the wrath for his actions. Thor is slowly becoming like oden without him knowing.

@mujtabaellari2597 3 жыл бұрын

Also Blake killed a bunch of Thor powered people. He should be punished for that.

@STNeish 2 жыл бұрын

That ending is actually from Norse myth. After Loki tricked Hod into killing Baldr, the gods bound Loki in a cave with a serpent dripping venom into his eyes, just like this. His wife, Nanna, stayed by his side and caught the venom in a bowl, but occasionally had to go and empty it. When she did, Loki would writhe in agony, and shake the earth itself, and this was the cause of earthquakes.

The ending to this was PERFECT considering Donald's punishment is the EXACT same punishment that was given to Loki by Odin all those years ago. And I for one see this as a chance for Loki to become someone Better now that he has not only forsaken his title as God of Lies but as passed it onto another "Odinson" and therefore it no longer holds any power over Loki, he can no longer be addressed by that title and in at least one way become a king in his own right.

The Ending is in line with the Myth of Loki's Punishment in Norse Mythology. The poison from the Serpent dripping onto his eyes while his wife (not in this one ofcourse 😏) holding a small cup to prevent his agony for just a moment until she has no choice but to pour the venom away, resuming his torment.

I would like it if they restored Odin to his former power level and greatness. They can create a multivariate arc to help them write a story in which another dimensions Vili and Ve give our 616 Odin their powers, bridging him back but with a different purpose, to save the new universe that the multiversal brothers come from. Cool idea I think.
