I can now have white trash adventures with my LEGO figures because the “braveheart” figure from series 6. This figure comes with Mullet hair. I also put on the hair from the space girl on one of these figures to give him the look of Thor.
Speaking of Thor, Eva has discovered that she really enjoys the Next Avengers DVD and has taken to calling herself Thorrun (the daughter of Thor and Sif). She carries a small padded baseball bat stuck into the back of her shirt as a sword. I guess I should go look for a Nerf sword for her because she’s really enjoying this character. She also likes to call me Hawkeye (also from the Next Avengers) and asks about my Bow and Arrows. Might be time for some Nerf toys for us.
I’ve always been a fan of mythology. Greek, Roman, Native American, Norse and more. The rich stories of mythology have been inspirations for stories in movies and comic books forever. The stories translate well because they are colorful and so full of amazing characters. The Norse god Thor and Loki are two such characters. In the Marvel comic book series Thor and Loki are brothers, sons of Odin. In the mythos of Marvel Thor is the son of Odin and Loki is the adopted son of Odin, or rather the son that was stolen from the frost giants and raised as the son of Odin. In terms of “Blood Brothers” from the title the blood is from the battles between Thor and Loki and how Loki conquers Thor and subjugates all of Asgard. But once Loki achieves all that he’s wanted he learns it isn’t exactly what he wants.
