This is a more thorough post on it: http://off-duty-librarian.tumblr.com/post/35045996887/there-is-an-original-post-is-here I noticed Jörmungandr on his armor when I watched Avengers the second or third time and was very happy about it. I was a little sad that the new people involved with The Dark World didn't seem to care about those sort of details like Joss Whedon and Kenneth Branagh did.
YES! Fancomic, I would like to see it please! Eventually, I'm going to make up a situation so Kid!Loki and Kate Bishop can be in the same room in my fanfiction, but it's going to take a while to make that happen.
I used to be able to read comics at bookstores, but Marvel stopped shipping them single issues and there weren't any close comic book stores. One finally opened forty minutes away last month, but by then, they were already on the fourth issue so I thought I might as well wait. The only one I've been buying the single issues with now has been the Serenity miniseries.
Hehe, I Tweeted once that I have to say God Bless You after a sneeze or I'm afraid Loki will kill me and Kevin Smith Favorited it. I was so happy.
I suppose a lot of it would be the Comic Book Code and not being allowed to do all the sex stuff in the myths, like the incest so they had to keep inventing new things. I do love the idea that despite everything, despite hating everyone, Loki went back in time and made sure that Odin would find him as a baby. The Frost Giant thing...the biggest thing about that and I am glad to see more authors picking up on this...Odin was giant himself! Well, "mountain giant" is how Marvel says it, but MCU seems to just skipped all that and made all giants Frost Giants so...
where are you getting your Odin rape thing from? I don't remember that from the myths.
Rindr? I can't find anything else outside of Marvel, but are we supposed to just assume a one-time rapist is only a one-time rapist?
Oh yeah, Marvel, in Thor: For Asgard #3 (2010), Jord/Gaia/Earth says that it wasn't consensual and that Odin had raped her all those years ago, producing Thor.
Although Odin is often referred to as a product of rape himself outside the comics.
Part Two
Thor's vambraces seem to set a precedent that their armour is decorated with those lost and/or held dear...most say this symbolizes Loki:

Especially since his vambraces in The Dark World are plain after Loki has been found alive.
