This story line just gets more convoluted and far-fetched every time I read it! I am starting to wonder if the writers are not simply throwing things together and hope the readers will just gasp in amazement. I can only bring myself to sigh in frustration. The way things look, the comic is either ending soon or they are going to have to pull a big “Dues ex Machina”, especially after killing off some of the characters. Too bad because this used to be one great comic to read.
Oh shut it. This is some good stuff, and its hilarious. Your probaly one of those people who delve too much into Comics. Its good. end period.
Aw come on. We always knew it looks darkest before the dawn…etc.
And it is Twilight of the Hod, after all…
Still, stoned or not…that has to hurt…and obviously Balder was…unavailable…But now we know why…
Gasp…Does this mean…Loki Was Framed…
And Hel is now a Reality Bending Duracell…
I LOVE BRAT-HALLA
AAAAAAAAH!!!! WTF?!?!! Okay, seriously guys, I can’t follow this any more. I’ll keep reading (duh) and hope it makes sense some day, but the story lost me around the time we got Mjollnir back, a few comic pages after the whole “hammer will not leave room” thing.
Someone please explain wtf happened and why.
Let’s see: Norse gods ticked off every other pantheon by kicking their tails, and Hod started recruiting then.
Pooka joined party (at some point) first following Thor, and now playing Dark Hod’s familiar. Somehow, this is the crux and whyfor of the story, I’d bet my storyteller’s instincts on it.
And remember, the Hel battery is still in HelHeim, where a big, bad, ANGRY Thor is bound to show up soon, and really play Havoc with Hod’s reality.
c’mon, tell me I’m wrong.
can I have a cookie if I’m close?
@Bryan – The comic isn’t ending… we jumped to the future for this storyline just like we did with the original Norse Force storyline and we’ll be back to the past (and the younger version of the brats) soon.
@j c rouille – Yep, Loki was framed so Hod could get his minion down there in Hel.
@Anita – Next episode’s teaser is “Monologue”. I’m assuming that’s the part where the villain gets to explain his master plan. And Hod has some explaining to do.
@Wynni – Sure, you can have a cookie if you’re close.
Yay! My hunch on the purpose of that machine was right! Go Dark Hod!
why does Devi look like he got dunked in water or something? I doubt dragons sweat (he is immune to fire and heat anyways) and the place they were in looked bone dry anyways.
Wait… so… Hod’s really a Bad Guy???? NOOOOO!! And Loki wasn’t framed, HOD was!!
Oh wait, this is a comic…. *grin*
Hod ain’t the only one with some ‘splainin’ to do, guys.
Don’t mess with my boy!!
Jasta,
Still believing it’ll all work out somehow
This has a distinct flavor about it. What happens in the future of the Norse gods? What is happening now? (what does anyone know nowadays about classical mythology? Only the esteemed writers know about it, apparently. And they know it very well. ^-^)
Adding up the facts:
Balder’s dead. Frigg is beserk.
Loki is MIA. ish.
And Thor and the serpent killed each other. The dead (no pun intended) giveaway was the section from the old Norse epics. Nine steps. Plus the comment about… hmm. Nvrmnd.
All the gods are fighting each other.
Plus Odineye and Hod were shown competing in a contest of wits on the cover-thing. (I take it that he coutns as Odin, in any case.)
All these (and others) add up to…
———
You figure it out. I don’t want to spoil. ^^
I can’t wait for Hermod vs. Loki.
@smjjames – Dewi’s just going for that sporty beach look. Or maybe I compressed the size of the image down just a little too far and messed up Anthony’s colors for him a tiny bit. Oops.
@Jasta – Wanna see how evil Hod really is? Find out in exactly two weeks.
@Wolf Gunnison – It’s always good to find out we have more fans knowledgeable in the ways of Norse mythology. Thanks for the comment!
@ Jeffery; its mostly the look of his scales, like they got all ruffled up or something.
Of course mommy, I will go into the light… Priceless!
Yeah, this is getting stranger and stranger, I have no theories, just along for the wacky ride. As long as there are some more snazzy one liners, that is all I care about.
@Bryan: We’ve already got a Dues Ex Machina. They just plugged Hel into it.
*snickers*
for those hwo miss the joke, Dues Ex Machina translates to Mechanism of the Gods.
I love this. Really do. Made me go look up a whole bunch on Norse Mythology to keep up on many things and it keeps cracking me up. Great job.
