make sure you guys hit the subscribe button if you guys are enjoying the content that we're throwing up and uh make sure you guys hit the like button if you enjoy the video and yeah let's begin all right what's going on guys this is rob and the loki tv show is coming out soon so i thought we would cover a bunch of loki's stuff it'd be kind of cool uh we're actually going to try to coincide this so that we end up getting to the well we end up getting to a really cool story by the time the tv show launches because i feel like the show is going to give us a bunch of different versions of loki so be aware that we are going to be explaining all those different versions of loki or different characters and things like that like we did with wand division and falcon in the winter soldier we're going to be doing that during loki but uh what we're also going to do here is we had previously covered part of this so like what we're doing with the x-men for example playing a bit of ketchup here so what we're actually gonna do is combine videos right so we're gonna take uh the return of thor video loki becoming a woman we're gonna combine it into this one and then upload it all as thor volume one because technically it is okay so it's like 1 15 in the morning right now and i am totally wired and i guess it's just because i've been working out all the time so i have like energy all the time like i can't sleep i feel like i'm gonna go upstairs and lay down after i record this and just crash out for like 10 hours which kind of sucks anyway i want to be a little bit interesting here i want to try my hand at recording or at least covering the beginning of j michael cerzinski's run on thor we're going to cover this first issue as a separate video because there's a lot to explain and also kind of a test thing right if you guys dig it we'll probably just go ahead and cover each individual issue over the course of the week or over the course of however long it takes us to get through all 12 so 12 days but for those of you guys who are who got into like jason aaron's thorpe uh which is to say like thor got a thunder with like gore the god butcher and all that kind of stuff those of you guys who are reading thor right now and the idea that like you had the events of siege on asgard and so on and so forth all that starts here right like this all starts with j michael strzinski's run and this all comes off the tales of ragnarok right we talked about that story before and in fact we covered it uh you'll find the whole thor playlist down in the description but the idea behind ragnarok was to basically remove thor from the landscape and one of the things a lot of people don't know if you go back and you read the old interviews from from casada and all them the idea was to actually kill off thor and to remove him from the landscape for a while uh ultimately they didn't dream uncles strazinski brought him back a few years later with really with this story uh but the idea here was to basically bring thor back in a way that would kind of return his character back to his roots right that fell in line with what it is that editor and editor-in-chief joe casada wanted to do right like take all the characters and put them back to the way they used to be spider-man goes back to being single the avengers go back to being the the kind of classic mainstays of marvel sort of uh coming together on a single team hence the reason why we got the new avengers by brian michael bendis the x-men their entire population was reduced down to 198 so it was a wholesale reshuffling of marvel across the board and thor was no exception and so what this does is it initially sort of picks up seemingly with thor kind of recounting his life right the things that he's known the successes he's had fighting alongside the warriors three ultimately becoming donald blake falling in love with sif and then going on and eventually falling in love with jane foster only to lose jane foster different things along those lines but it's basically kind of you know going over his life and and the struggles he's dealt with the fact that he basically faced off against these various forces during ragnarok died it's just kind of a solid run over right it's it's a way for j michael suginski to say hey guys here's what's going on with thor but regards to the story what's going on with thor is that he's not really alive but he's not really dead he's in what's called the void now in my mind the way i looked at this was that under normal circumstances thor would have died right like he would have gone to where hello was right he would have gone to that like afterlife more or less well he probably would have gone to valhalla to be honest because of the fact that he was such an honorable warrior that kind of a thing it looked like and and from what i recall i think sherzinski had an old forum post that he made where he was talking about this and he said the idea was that the reason why thor didn't go there is because of the fact that donald blake anchored him to life right because when it comes to the donald blake thor relationship and i want to talk about this because i feel like this is something that really confuses a lot of people and now's as good of a time as any to really bring this up this whole idea here with with donald blake basically having this conversation with thor as as donald blake's literally going about and just kind of talking about things heading towards his destination grabbing thor's hammer different things like that what he does is he basically says we're the same person and and the reason why you see thor saying things like well there was an odin spell that split us apart and and like that doesn't it doesn't work like that anymore is because when you go back and you read the old thor stories when he first appeared back in 1962 right so the old journey into mystery stories what you got was was essentially a byproduct of the time right which is to say ever since action comics issue number one in 1938 and the introduction of superman as the first superhero alter egos had been a thing of comic books right they were a mainstay they were a staple the concept of an alter ego was tried and true something that you didn't really mess with too much and so we got that with thor right you go back and you read the old stories you had this guy named donald blake and donald blake was this this doctor who had kind of a limp of sorts he had a handicap and he was hanging out with jane foster who he was in love with and she didn't really return his affection and there was like this weird alien invasion thing kind of going on so he runs and he hides in a cave and he ends up ends up finding a stick and he gets frustrated he smacks the stick on a rock and the stick turns into mjolnir and he turns into thor with with the old stanley and jack kirby comics the way those were written it was not thor who was turning into donald blake and the other way around it was basically this idea that like donald blake was channeling the power of thor right so like he was possessing thor's power and looking like thor that's the way it was originally done all this changed in the thought in thor issue number 159 and what marvel did is they basically came out and said by virtue of uh jack kirby's tales of asgard stories and and stanley writing the writing the thor stories is what they said was at some point in the past thor was an actual deity right he's an actual being that existed out there but was full of hubris he was full of arrogance and so because of that odin wanted to teach thor humility and then in turn he basically created or crafted the persona of donald blake literally fabricated this guy out of nowhere and then wiped all of thor's memories and knowledge of who he was and then stuck his essence inside of donald blake and so as a result of that donald blake went forward believing that he basically lived his entire life and that he was channeling the power of thor and so following that the two characters were aware of the others like actual purpose where they came from that kind of thing but all that changed again when walt simonson took over thor with issue number 337 now technically walt simonsen was drawing thor with issue 260 right he drew issues 260 to 271 but he took over his rider with issue number 337 and with donald blake he snipped that up quick fast and in a hurry and so what ended up happening is in in uh the introduction of beta ray bill in that comic that what odin did is he actually removed the enchantment of donald blake right he basically said that like thor and donald blake are no longer the same person that this kind of you know magical essence that's being crafted out of nowhere this donald blake persona is gonna be pulled away from thor and it's gonna be stuck inside of beta rayville's hammer stormbreaker so that walt simon can use it in the future if you wanted to or anybody else could and so as a result of that from that point going forward thor was no longer associated with donald blake they had nothing to do with each other and thor was always just thor and it ran like that for decades right it ran like that for years and years and years right up until now and this is why jay michael cerzinski's run is so important is because it fell in line with a charter of what it is that joe casada wanted to do set everything back to right so everything to the way that it was supposed to be i would just say setting characters back to the old school line of thinking and so that's why these two guys are having this conversation is because the essence of donald blake is reinstated right it's basically back here again donald blake is his own being out there somewhere and he basically anchors thor to the real world right so like it's still like a singular physical body but it's basically the essence of thor the mind of thor his spiritual existence more or less sitting in this void and donald lake is housing the physical body right so like what will happen is eventually they'll switch and that's exactly what takes place this whole conversation that goes on here is donald blake basically telling telling thor you have to come back because if you don't the world will fall to ruin now in terms of how it is that donald blake knows this donald blake doesn't he's really kind of ambiguous here right and that was sort of j michael jordanski saying hey look thor just has to come back and for the most part like it was sort of hand wavy it didn't really get offer a whole lot in the way of an explanation and fans didn't really care right zozinski knew that for the most part fans weren't really gonna care how it is that donald blake knew these things all fans really wanted was for thor to come back and this was as good of a reason as annie to basically bring him back here right and so as a result of that where literally thor says like i don't want to return because i've seen what happens in this life that i live i'm part of the cycle of ragnarok right for those of you guys who aren't familiar with that ragnarok is the the end times of asgard right the destruction of asgard the difference here is that where ragnarok is essentially like the end of all things for all the asgardian beings what marvel ended up doing was basically giving us this scenario whereby all the asgardians since the very beginning of all things in existence all asgardians have repeatedly died and been reborn as part of the cycle of ragnarok seemingly an unlimited number of times and in fact marvel actually came back and they modified thor issue number 159 which gave us the reason why it was that thor was banished to earth as donald blake and actually tacked onto that and said that odin did that one of course to teach thor humility but two in order to escape the cycle of ragnarok it was the one thing that odin had never done before he'd never cast thor down to earth the cycle of ragnarok had always gone through the process of thor staying on asgard and then everything comes to an end and then everything's reborn again and so on and so forth and so as a result of that donald blake's response is yeah man but like that's the nature of things right it's who you are like you you're a hero you're a savior like yes you're going to lose people over the course of your life but it doesn't take away from the the achievements that you've made it doesn't take away from like the great things that you've done you have to return to earth because if you don't then ultimately the planet is going to fall to ruin and so as a result of that where thor is sort of fighting against these various beings and various demons that try to keep him there in the end he ends up summoning his hammer right it ends up summoning mjolnir to himself being more or less reborn as as thor and so what this does is it kind of goes forward from here right and so essentially what this does is kind of give us the way thor always was right i mean you never really saw it this way if you look at the old stanley and jack kirby comics but this is basically how it was it's almost like a bruce spanner incredible hulk dichotomy and so far that donald blake is currently housing the physical form the physical body of both thor and donald blake he's walking around when the the stick gets hit on the ground or whatever it is and and thor's activated they switch places right like thor's physical essence goes into the body he becomes donald blake donald blake actually goes to the void and they they kind of go back and forth as they need to but of course this leads to to donald lake taking up residence in brockton oklahoma now the reason why he chose rocks in oklahoma is because that's where the hammer lands but it's also the place where ultimately thor is going to start start making his move and building everything up right and so the cool thing about this is that what it does is it has donald blake renting a hotel room donald blake going upstairs into his room and really for the first time since the events of ragnarok and really for the first time in decades which is a pretty big deal for a lot of thor fans donald blake takes a stick smacks it on the ground and thor returns in his reborn form it's really cool for people who have been like a fan of thor for a very long time or who have been reading for a really really long time it was a great return it was a great reprieve and again that's what kasada and strzok were looking for they were looking for this idea of bringing thor back in a way to where it could kind of reinvigorate interest right it could be like old school thor as you remember him him and donald blake that kind of a thing okay so for those of you guys who were following our videos on uh early start our first video on j michael sterzinski's thor i haven't forgotten about you guys it's just been super super busy but we are picking this up and in this video loki becomes a chick loki becomes a woman now in the last video we basically ended with thor essentially recreating asgard in brockton oklahoma in this part of the video we actually moved forward to a video that we actually did a rundown on like we did a rundown on iron man vs thor and that was really really fun right that was a really fun one to do but in order to keep it in continuity with where i guess keep it in line with how we're doing these videos we're gonna kind of run over this again not super hardcore but we're gonna run over this again because this takes place after the events of civil war now remember during the whole events of civil war like we were looking at that we were kind of hoping the good guys would win they didn't the bad guys well i guess what passes for the bad guys one superhuman registration ran uh won out right now there were a few things that came out of civil war that even after civil war we didn't cover like we didn't cover the mighty avengers which came after civil war that was basically the avengers team that served as kind of an antithesis to the secret avengers right but the way that played out is you basically had carol danvers leading an avengers team they kind of operated as a long arm of of superhuman registration right like if you if you weren't registered and you were running around doing things like carol danvers avengers team would catch up to you eventually mighty avengers was rebranded and re-christened and essentially became luke cage's mighty avengers which included adam beshear the blue marvel which was really really good it was a really good run but this takes place almost immediately after right so iron man is now the director of shield superhuman registration is in effect and superheroes cannot operate within the united states unless they register themselves with shield and the federal government the problem with this is that this is thor right so thor just does what he wants to and that's just the way it is and it's hilarious because you know when he gets to new orleans of course this is post hurricane katrina so new orleans is in a lot of ways devastated getting in here remember thor is on the hunt for asgardians but thor doesn't know explicitly what the asgardians look like right like all he knows by virtue of what it was that donald blake told him is that the asgardians aren't truly dead right like their spiritual essences have basically lived on and recreated and like created human forms right like there's beings that are out there where they're speaking their spirits have gone into those individuals and it's up to thor to find them and so what he ends up doing is tracking down this guy who's out in out in new orleans you know and it's like hey look like i know who you truly are even though you don't know and this guy's kind of like well whatever man he doesn't know who thor is and that's going to be the common theme when it comes to thor rescuing these various asgardians is they're not going to know who he is right they don't even know who they are they're just kind of being their their s their spiritual essence is kind of hidden and locked away inside these various individuals the problem with this is that where thor tries to talk reason into the sky suddenly he's met by the arrival of iron man and let me tell you something thor is pissed like thor was already in in like a really pissy mood iron man makes it worse because what he does is show up here this is one of the things i love the most about the right now we did that episode right like like iron man showed up here and like he's he's he's tough right like he's the big guy right like he's the director of shield he's like the big dude on the block iron man's like dude you have to work within the system you have to register and thor just calls down the thunder and immediately like gets to work like he starts going to work on iron man and the reason why is is those you guys who never saw the rundown video and who never saw my videos on civil war during that event what you ended up learning is that at some point in the past iron man reed richards these guys really more iron man than anybody else had taken a piece of thor's hair so that if thor ended up perishing they could copy him they could clone him they could make a new version of him and they did that right the character's name was ragnarok which is kind of stupid but they ended up basically making like a robot version of thor which went awry and actually killed a superhero named goliath who was previously one of the individuals who used pym particles to become a superhero and so as a result of that you've basically got like thor sitting here saying okay so like let me see if i understand this man so basically i died or at least i was believed to have died you know and in order to to honor my memory you make a robot out of me which in turn kills one of our superheroes and then you show up here on on you know running up on me telling me that i've got to follow your rules he's like no man like you're a human dude i'm a god man so like like i don't follow your rules you follow mine and it's just it's amazing because he immediately goes to work on tony stark it's not even a contest right like it's not even like tony stark's putting up a good fight he's standing a great chance no no no tony stark is getting decimated like it's one of the coolest things right like this is one of the reasons why i love j michael strozinski's writing he was so good at this because he would be like hey guys i'm going to show you a fight and i'm going to show you a fight that's won quite readily and in no uncertain terms and it's going to be awesome and that's literally what happens here right like iron man chooses repulsor beams thor hits it away i mean there's there's nothing that iron man can really do here the response here of thor is here is how things are going to work right it's not even saying like let's come to an agreement it's no no like i'm going to tell you how it's going to work and then you're going to accept it and you're going to go forward with it or you're going to die and it's basically like i rebuilt asgard in brockton oklahoma and there it will stay i am on a mission to find my asgardians and when i do they will travel to brockton oklahoma and they will reside in asgard that's how it's going to be like your affairs your your whole thing with your your laws of men and all that kind of stuff doesn't apply to us because at any given point we could just say the heck with it and raise this world to the ground so either you can do what we tell you to do or you can perish it could be easy or it could be hard man and so as a result of that iron man's just kind of like yeah dude good talk and he basically leaves right he basically leaves and he ends up traveling back to his base of operations you go back to back to shield and everything looking at how how readily his armor was destroyed by thor and when the question is asked well what do we do like are we going to do anything about broxton or the response of iron man is no we're not we're going to leave it there and the reason why is because they're playing a dangerous game right like what we end up learning is this guy that thor was trying to get his hands on that he's been talking to once he reasons with this guy and once he says hey look i get you don't want to leave these people behind but you have a higher duty here and you have to recall what that higher duty is and so the results of that is this guy basically says okay and then he basically allows thor to bring that essence out and we end up finding that this guy is heimdall right now this is the reason why thor went for him is because heimdall is all-seeing he can see everything out there and so in response to that what this means is that with heimdall on the side of thor and iron man basically saying hey look i don't know exactly that's if that's what's going on but i do know that things are kind of popping off here they'd be picking a fight with gods the avengers would be foolish if they decided to go to war with asgard you would need some big heavy hitters fighting on the side of the avengers in order to be able to win but the chances those guys actually working for them are slim because iron man's pissed everybody off so like no one's going to really side with him if iron man shows up to like the super 2 to all the superheroes who have gone underground with his hat in his hand and saying hey guys so like i kind of screwed up and i need your all's help to basically survive against asgard they're going to be like sorry about your luck you know and they're gonna send them packing and that's basically gonna be it and so as a result of that what you end up getting is thor jumping from one location to the next traveling to various locations he ends up traveling to africa basically dealing with these freedom fighters and the freedom fighters are being led by what's basically the warriors three it's a cool thing to see thor moving from one location to the next and basically waking up these various asgardians and then gathering together and having them returning to their previous form now the cool thing is he doesn't just he doesn't just like bail out right so like in the instance of of these african freedom fighters it's not as though he shows up here and he's like excuse me everybody everybody saw what you're doing i gotta wake up my asgardian friends and he wakes them up and it's like okay guys everybody back to it gotta go and then he basically leaves he stays in in fights right these days and helps and that's one of the important things to bear in mind when it comes to thor is at the moment the the priority in what thor is doing is waking up the asgardians and bringing them back right but it's not like he's gonna leave a country of innocent people to die and just be like that's just kind of the way it goes man it's business as usual and call it a day the cool thing about this is that once the warriors three are restored knowing notice this thor's going with the people he trusts the most right he trusts heimdall more than anybody else because heimdall really has no reason to lie heimdall's loyalty is absolute loyalty is to the protection of asgard it's the role he serves right and not only that of course he's got the all-seeing eye so basically he can tell thor where to go and who to look for but at the same time bringing in the warriors three are his most trusted battle his most trusted companions when it comes to to engaging in conflict and so what ends up happening here is heimdall basically points thor in the direction of a place where various individuals are being kept being kept in prison this place is kind of hidden this place is locked off nobody's really supposed to know but he basically says a huge number of our group of us as guardians are being held here in this location by a foe that i can't tell you about you're basically going to have to go and you're going to have to face this foe on your own and do the best you can when he gets in there when he basically starts when he ends up discovering what this foe is it's the destroyer armor the destroyer's got a long history when it comes to asgard right the destroyer armor was originally created by the sky fathers but mostly odin in order to basically defeat the celestials or at least to challenge the celestials but the destroyer armor is an insanely powerful piece of technology right like an insanely powerful being and so thor facing off against the destroyer really takes all he has and it's cool to see that because when that happens and when the destroyer armor is is ultimately defeated by thor the destroyer armor cracks open and out falls balder to the brave and this is cool because if you go and you look at norwegian mythos like the actual asgard uh i guess really the real mythos of asgardian here in the real world the fates had decried that if bald of the brave were to die then it would signal the starting of ragnarok and that's one of the reasons why baltimore the brave was bathed bathed in waters where he was basically immortal the only thing that that was missing was a single section of him in marvel comics ball of the brave is similar in that regard but if he dies it doesn't mean ragnarok is going to happen the cycle of ragnarok the way the prophecies were laid out is that loki was the one who was going to kick off ragnarok and so it really it really ties somewhat into the real world mythos insofar as baldr is a character who basically met like it was always like if he dies something bad will happen that was really kind of the gist of it right it was the idea that if balder died the cycle of ragnarok would start it wasn't until you started getting into the years leading up to thor disassembled in the ragnarok story that it was like baller doesn't really have anything to do with it at all he can die and it'll suck but it's not going to start ragnarok it was basically loki will start ragnarok he's the source of it all and so as a result of that baldr basically speaks to thor and says like the idea here was that i had always existed in such a way to where it was my job to protect asgard right like if i fell asgard would fall as well and the problem with this is that when i felt i had failed in my mission i failed to protect asgard and so as a result of that i didn't really know what to do like it was an internal conflict in myself between accepting the fact that asgard had fallen there was nothing i could have done about it and the fact that i failed and so as a result of that what it basically did is it led to him basically being thrown inside the destroyer armor and then gathering all of his people together and it really led to him imprisoning them but regardless of the circumstance with balder being freed of course baldr is basically sent back to asgard and so what is up happening is thor gets in here and he's grabbing the last of the people who are there and he ends up coming up coming upon a woman who he believes to be sith and as he starts talking as he says you know turn around my love you know it's good to see you again my my beautiful woman my beautiful dear the love of my life she turns around hello my love and it's loki loki becomes a chick look he's a girl but loki being a woman is is amazing because what he basically did was steal the body of sif he stole the body that was meant for sip now here's the funny thing is loki kind of parades around and really presents himself to thor in such a way where he's basically harmless now because what he says is like my entire existence leading up to the events of ragnarok was to cause ragnarok right like everything i did was for the purpose of causing ragnarok of getting to a point where ragnarok would basically be initiated by me but that was the sole purpose that i had that's all that i was really supposed to do and now that i've done that there's no reason for me to be a bad guy anymore i'm basically starting over i'm starting from scratch like i'm doing things all over again i'm basically a good guy now now thor extends a bit of an olive branch but the olive branch is on a pretty short leash right i mean thor's not like well okay brother i trust you man like it's awesome to see you again bud it's cool to see here because what we end up learning this is this is this is one of the reasons why i love the character of loki so much what we end up learning is that none of this is what it appears because what loki does is start communicating he starts communicating with somebody who we can't see and loki basically starts saying that thor is a bit of a goof thor trusts people implicitly trust his asgardians implicitly which is not the worst thing in the world but there are asgardians out there who want to see him fall and so as a result of that what thor will do is thor will basically lie and wait and thor will start releasing different people uh based on those he can trust the most of those he can trust the least but what's what's going on here is loki saying we can basically have our chance you and i working together as those individuals are released as thor begins to release those individuals whom he trusts and whom will operate under the guise of i'm here to fulfill my purpose and i don't really have any ill will against you thor they will lie in wait and what they'll be waiting for is somebody to help them make a move somebody who can help them achieve their goal without fear of being totally obliterated by thor whatever that goal happens to be most likely the fall of thor and so with this individual who loki's speaking to if you know he's basically saying if we work together we can work alongside those individuals who want to see thor fall and we can bring ruin to thor we can bring him down and then we can we can basically plunder asgard like we could seize control of that entire place and the person you end up finding out loki is talking to is none other than probably the greatest villain in all of marvel comics victor von doom allah doctordoom so continuing on with this uh basically with with asgard being rebuilt in brockton oklahoma that people in broxton are experiencing what it's like to live with us guardians [Laughter] like they're all they've all basically become daryl from that little thor short you guys remember that from back in the day when thor had like his roommate daryl um it's really this is really one of those it's really more of a fun story right in the sense that one of the first things that happens is you basically pick up with hogan now hogan is one of the warriors three and the idea behind this is he actually traveled from oklahoma to texas something like over 100 miles to knock out a couple of boars and then bring them back to asgard so that people can kind of feast on them right just part of the offerings for the dinner and he actually helped out a couple of guys or really just this kid named named steve who's basically trying to change a tire and it's one of these instances where they just kind of have an encounter with with one of the asgardians and so it's kind of a cool thing because a lot of these guys are kind of curious about them they're enamored by them i mean it is a pretty strange situation that in the aftermath of the destruction of asgard when loki basically led a revolt and led to most of the asgardians being killed and then himself was killed by thor when thor destroyed the world tree that that with you know asgard just kind of being rebuilt in brockton people just kind of like this is a little strange uh it's interesting but it's strange and so they actually end up offering him a ride back home and he's like no he's like i prefer the walk i want to be the first asgardian with a tan and that's one of the things that's going on is a lot of these guys are kind of changing kind of offering different stories here right they're sort of uh giving different accounts of their experiences coming across different asgardians and and it's kind of intriguing because all this is actually being watched by thor and we'll talk about why here in a second but the next thing you do is you switch over to a guy by the name of bill now bill was kind of walking down the street one night when he was met by the arrival of kelda now anybody who read j michael cerzinski's run on thor knows that the story of kelda and bill is like this beautiful story but it is stupidly tragic at the same time it's it's so sad but it's amazing so bill is like like i i love the way the bill's done here right so this chick she's like she's like i'm kelda right like i was born of the light in the sky and and sunrises and the wind and who are you and he's like i'm bill born of bills my grandfather was big bill and my dad was little bill and me i'm bill jr i mean he's he's just i wouldn't say he's simple but he's just like he's he's just so homegrown right there's just there's something about a person like that that just kind of gives off this air of just non-extravagance right and they're just a cool person like you know what i mean it's kind of hard to describe right but they're just like a cool person and the result of this is that she really kind of picks up on that and she's like well bill is a fine man right bill's short for william you know i knew of william the third he was a king right he was he was sovereign of his people he was a great and honorable man you should be proud of the name that you wear and he's like yes ma'am and she's like huh man so ultimately and this this is this is this is this is cool i love the way this is done right the way this plays out is that she's like okay well it's about time for me to go he's like hold on i have a question for you she's like okay he's like what's it like living up there in asgard right like living up there among all those those gods those asgardian people and the response she gives is intriguing she's like you know it's kind of funny that you ask that because oftentimes we ask ourselves what's it like living down there where you are and she's not really saying it in like a disparaging way right like what's it like being part of the lower caste in society that's not really what she means it's just you know it's one of these things where it's kind of an overlooked concept that as asgardians are as intrigued by humanity as humanity is intrigued by the asgardians now remember because the third host of the celestials the asgardians cannot interfere in the affairs of mortal men otherwise the celestials will come back and destroy them all and so they kind of have to watch from afar now one of the big differences between kelda and the other asgardians is a lot of the other asgardians are content staying in asgard and looking on humanity some of whom look down their nose at humanity where they see them as feeble they see them as weak not really worth in their their notice or their time or energy but kelda is intrigued by them specifically she's intrigued by bill right because in her time in asgard and even just kind of wandering around bill seemed like a pretty basic guy and she was curious what it's like to live his life and so ultimately uh you know she's like well i mean you know since since i even doles my curiosity here perhaps you'll do the same and come one night to satisfy your interests kelda wants the d and it's like bill man you better make good on that promise dude she literally left the door open for you gentlemen as frustrating as it is and as much as we would prefer women just tell us what they're thinking instead it's really more of just like games right it's like mind games things like that so if you wanna if you you wanna if you wanna date man you gotta you gotta learn to play the game as frustrating as it can be sometimes you got to learn to play the game and so it's cool right it's a cool little thing because bill's like all right but the whole situation all these different stories that are being told by these people in broxton are all being overlooked by thor and his donald blake persona right in his human persona because one of the important things to know here is i wouldn't say that the people of broxton having a disdain for the asgardians being there would be enough for thor to want to leave but it is it's one of these things where he is curious about how all this unfolds right it is curious about how people view the asgardians because one of the things to know is that the the ability for the asgardians to stay here and to experience what would more or less be a peaceful life is largely contingent on the citizens of broxton and we'd actually we'll actually see that unfold later on when the citizens of roxane actually end up turning against the asgardians which there's a pretty cool reason for that it's actually an event called siege on asgard uh but it's amazing right it's a really really good story but one of the things that happens here is thor is like okay the biggest issue is it's kind of coming out of the previous discussions that we had where we talked about how thor was traveling around and freeing the different asgardians from their mortal prisons more or less when they had all died and their essences were reborn in mortal bodies instead of going from like one place to the next which is lengthy and exhausting instead thor uses a full brunt of his energy to literally activate all of them across the world right to basically wake up every single asgardian across the entire planet and they all come colin right every single asgardian is activated brazil in in los angeles the whole nine yards it's kind of an intriguing thing because with this overwhelming thor and really almost thor kind of being knocked out and entering into what is more or less his ver his version of the of the odin's sleep it leaves asgard largely wide open and unprotected and this is a pretty dangerous situation since we already know that loki is working alongside dr doom but with that being said guys we're gonna bring this video to an end if you are new here to comments explain make sure you guys hit the sub button to become part of the rob core if you guys enjoyed this video make sure you drop a
