yeah actually they pick right up after the finale where suddenly los angles is in hell and they seem to know that it's angel's crew's fault. the group becomes fractured. wesley comes back as a permanent character. it's really good storylines. gunn is in a coma. illyria is just freaking amazing. and! angel has a pet dragon. (sentient, however, lol). so definitely worth checking out. i got mine on google books.

Shantotto112025-10-04 19:16
An interesting story where Odin fears a war with a realm with a ruler that’s weak enough to get snuck by a dwarfed frost giant. Also, said ruler never learned that he was killed by his own son.
Ari-the-Bug2025-10-04 19:29
Because nobody ever assassinated the leader of a powerful nation before. And the god of trickery could never pull it off. It’d be too obvious.
Edboy7962025-10-04 20:01
I can't remember off the top of my head, but was Loki regarded as Odinson in Asgard? Or Loki Laufison, and nobody questioned it?
Genuinely can't remember
Shantotto112025-10-04 20:17
He was still Odinson. I don’t think anyone called him Laufeyson until Loki season 1.
Edboy7962025-10-04 20:19
Got it, thank you!
assasstits2025-10-04 19:27
Power level consistency is still importance for believability.
Otherwise, we might as well have the average human beating up gorillas
Character-Owl94082025-10-04 19:36
We are talking about superheroes that can travel through space. We aren’t watching for believability.
TheOliveYeti2025-10-04 19:39
I really hate this meme of "Well the plot is fantasy/scifi so why should the writing be believable?"
Not that I really give a shit about powerscaling, but it's dumb thinking in general

Universe_Nut2025-10-04 19:55
Believability is cringe. Internal consistency is based
TheOliveYeti2025-10-04 19:58
"cringe. based"
DisastrousRatios2025-10-04 20:03
It gets taken to ridiculous conclusions, I encountered this a lot during GOT's final years.
Character constantly teleporting/crossing entire continents in days in a show that was universally praised for realism and logical outcomes, and I call it out?
"Really, you're worried about travel distances in a show about dragons and magic? Give me a break"
I mean, frankly, I don't find it unbelievable to begin with that Odin could have issues with the frost giants, yet Thanos is still afraid of him. Especially given the possibility that Thanos and his armies could take Odin, Thor, and Asgard, but if all the Avengers joined Odin, he'd fail, and in contrast, Odin didn't have access to the Avengers against the frost giants.
But, I do agree with the principle that conversations about believability are important, even in fantastical stories. Suspension of disbelief can be applied in one instance and that doesn't mean it can be used as an excuse always. For example, I can suspend my disbelief and pretend Iron Man has some sort of tech that protects his body inside the suit, and stops his brain from turning to jelly every time he does a superhero landing. But outside of details like that, I still want character and story details to make sense. I don't think the Odin - frost giant thing is a plothole, but if it was, I'd care about it.
TheOliveYeti2025-10-04 20:07
Yeah it's incredibly annoying but at least you know any engagement with people like that is pointless.

BlueberryCautious1542025-10-04 19:55
I personally judge movies solely by the number of cameos per minute. I give Endgame an 8/10 and it could have been a 9/10 if it was five hours long so they could fit in a storyline for my personal favorite characters Daredevil, Kingpin, Prowler, Rhino Squirrel Girl, and Shocker. Unfortunately Marvel didn't listen to the fans.
Edboy7962025-10-04 20:03
Unfortunately, Marvel has a complex situation legally with those characters. And if Endgame was more Spider-Man heavy, then maybe, but Spidey is out for a majority, if not half, of the movie
RellenD2025-10-04 21:34
Man all that extra time and no power rangers?
BlueberryCautious1542025-10-04 22:21
It needs a TMNT, Power Rangers crossover to hit a 10 for me. Plus no movie is complete without Deadpool making wacky references to other things I recognize.
ThrowRAkakareborn2025-10-04 22:42
For me it can never be complete without Captain Caveman
TotallyNormalSquid2025-10-04 22:46
If they had Goku take on Thanos then the Power Rangers and the TMNT could just morb in a subplot.
Majestic-Marcus2025-10-05 10:50
> Man all that extra time and no power rangers?
Reminds me of the build up to Endgames release. There was some madman in this sub claiming he 100% *knew* the blue ranger was the Avengers secret weapon. It was the only possible outcome that made sense. They’d totally heard it from their roommates cousin who once served Feige’s assistants brother coffee in Starbucks that one time.
Dude was either the greatest troll this sub ever saw or just *WAY* too far into the internet. Radio silence post endgame. I hope they’re ok haha.
Also - why the blue ranger? Why not Tommy? He’s obviously who they’d pick.
Aint-no-preacher2025-10-04 22:18
I love Rhino Squirrel Girl.

Rammskie2025-10-04 19:01

Sometimes the influence someone has over large group of people make them dangerous, not their power scaling.

draculabakula2025-10-04 19:51
So is Loki. He took over the entire multiverse.
Mace_Thunderspear2025-10-04 20:06
No he didn't. He found himself in a position where he was able to serve as basically a zip-tie in what is essentially the cable management of the multiverse. He controls nothing really.
fsmlogic2025-10-04 20:07
I think in his current form he could just let go of a branch of reality and let it die. So he might not be actively controlling things even if he could.
knokout642025-10-04 20:44
Yeah, after a couple thousand years of mastering his control over time. He's Kang level now. He just manages the branches instead of the loom so they don't have to prune.
Federal_End_56302025-10-05 00:37
He’s older than Thor now much older
draculabakula2025-10-04 21:22
He still mastered the properties of time travel in a way that allowed him to unseat the guy who defeated the multiverse. It still makes him powerful.
MiopTop2025-10-04 19:06
He wasn’t strong and scary without the Casket of Ancient Winters.
Palmquistador2025-10-04 19:11
I keep seeing this everywhere lately. What is this and where does it get its power from?
MiopTop2025-10-04 19:20
It’s the artefact the Frost Giants used to try and take over Earth and powered their war against the Asgardians. Once Odin took it from them, they were basically doomed to live in a wasteland for millenia.
It’s the thing they try to steal from Odin’s vault at the beginning of the first Thor movie and what Loki promises Laufey to trick him into attacking Odin. It’s also what he uses to freeze Heimdall. It’s basically a source of infinite cold from Niflheim. In Norse mythology Niflheim is a realm of cold and darkness, while Jotunheim just has giants. In marvel comics they’re both places of great cold, but apparently Niflheim is colder so having access to that cold makes Jotuns more powerful.
nonstopyoda2025-10-04 19:06
He was a frost giant, dude was strongest and most dangerous on his ice planet, not some old dudes bedroom.
idiotplatypus2025-10-04 20:54
What sitting in a frozen wasteland for 1000 years does to a guy. Perhaps he's just gotten old?
Useless_Donuts2025-10-04 18:41
Could Odin have stopped Thanos with a couple of stones in the gauntlet?
DeltaAlphaGulf2025-10-04 18:45
No.
Which stones specifically?
itsonmyprofile2025-10-04 18:59
I mean, yeah he could’ve. Thor almost stopped Thanos with a full gauntlet. The only reason he didn’t is because he went for the revenge move (“I told you that you would pay for that”) instead of the kill shot (“you should’ve gone for the head”)
LewisRyan2025-10-04 19:00
Odin would’ve slaughtered Thanos and his henchmen solo
DeltaAlphaGulf2025-10-04 19:05
With a sneak attack which is presumably not the question.
Realistically he turns him into a plushie with the reality stone.
itsonmyprofile2025-10-04 19:35
Thanos had the reality stone when Thor threw Stormbreaker at him and tried to stop the attack with the fully powered gauntlet
PapillonsRevenge2025-10-04 18:46
Thor almost did, without any stones ; so yeah
Own-Box35262025-10-04 19:10
Thanos specifically waited until Odin died to begin going after the stones himself, so yes!
Good_old_Marshmallow2025-10-04 19:17
Odin with Asgard in his prime would’ve
1. Seen Thanos coming thanks to his far seers
2. Made an elaborate plan because he’s wise
3. Had infinity stones, multiple planets worth of armies, magic, god killing weapons, and titanic monsters to throw at Thanos
Yeah I think he crushes him if Thanos decides to blitz Asgard in like Thor I
Majestic-Marcus2025-10-05 11:19
This is true. But there’s also this option…
Odin sees Thanos plotting, bi frosts to him. Beats him to death without breaking a sweat.
Even old man Odin wouldn’t need an army to take on prime Thanos.
Odin absolutely bodies and toys with Thanos in the comics. He treats him like The Hulk treats Loki. Prime Odin versus Prime Thanos is like God Doom vs Thanos.
Smooth-Mix-43572025-10-04 19:17
nowhere it has been established that he waited
RugDougCometh2025-10-04 19:33
No, just a popular fan theory. The Peter Dinklage dwarf said that Asgard was supposed to protect them, but obviously Asgard wasn’t doing that under Loki’s leadership, and there doesn’t seem to have been anything else in Thanos’ way - he evidently could track the stones down whenever he wanted. It makes sense as an in-universe excuse for Thanos’ timing with his attack.
Smooth-Mix-43572025-10-04 19:43
There is no way Thanos would have known Odin was replaced by Loki
RugDougCometh2025-10-04 20:20
It seems like there is no way Thanos would have known a lot of things, yeah.
hemareddit2025-10-04 22:38
He didn’t need to know though. Thor said he found Nine Realms in chaos, and that’s how he figured out Loki took Odin’s place. All Thanos needed to know is Asgardian forces have stopped doing peacekeeping in the Nine Realms, that’s enough for him to pay attention since he knows they have an Infinity Stone so he must be on the lookout for signs of weakness.
Well if he was paying attention, he surely would have noticed the entire Asgardian military freaking disappearing and the planet straight up exploded. With how fast he showed up to slaughter/rob the survivors, I think he did notice.
Edboy7962025-10-04 20:10
Thanos didn't know where the soul stone was
RugDougCometh2025-10-04 20:24
That’s true. Which is weird. He finds out from Nebula’s memory scene that Gamora knows where the Soul Stone is, but in that same scene Nebula says that Thanos is finally ready to go after *all* the stones. It doesn’t seem like not knowing the location of stones was stopping him.
microducks2025-10-04 19:35
Is this stated in the movies or shows? Or just a common theory?
Own-Box35262025-10-04 19:39
It’s a prevailing fan theory but also this is stated in some of the comics as well. Imagine if thanos went to Asgard to take the space stone with Odin still alive. Heck, even if Hela was still alive she would destroy him
Majestic-Marcus2025-10-05 11:22
Pretty sure Hela vs Thanos would be like What If Vistron vs Thanos. Only with Hel blades instead of forehead laser.
Funmachine2025-10-04 19:37
No, he didn't.
GorrTheButcher2025-10-04 20:03
This is wrong. It is stated in infinity war the he started once he got the location of the last stone from nebula. He did not care about Odin. The only way this theory makes sense is if you ignore what Thanos tells us in the movie.
mikeofthegarden2025-10-04 18:46
I thought Odin gave one of his eyes for wisdom or something. No one took it.
Fxry2025-10-04 18:49
He loses it in the flashback scene in Thor 1.
Funmachine2025-10-04 19:37
We don't actually see him lose it. We see he has it when they fight the Frost Giants on Earth and that he doesn't when he finds Loki on Jotunheim and the wound is fresh. But there's nothing to say that Launfey took it, or that the war didn't last hundreds of years and Odin gave it up himself.
Fxry2025-10-04 19:53
No, but the implication the movie is giving is that he lost it fighting the frost giants.
burghguy32025-10-04 21:01
Because of the implication.
Lazy-Professional-712025-10-04 19:57
You actually see laufey throw an ice spike bomb on odins face, right on his right eye. And before that he had both eyes, next pannel after that he doesnt have it and his eye is bleeding profusely.
Funmachine2025-10-04 20:41
The ice bomb is on Earth and then next shot is once they have driven them back to Jotunheim. It could be inferred to be one battle, but they could easily be a long time apart.
TailsIV2025-10-05 16:09
It’s like LOTR when Gandalf runs off to research the ring after the beginning. He was apparently gone for years but the movie editing makes it feel like a couple weeks tops.
Funmachine2025-10-05 16:30
The timeline isn't established at all in the films. In the books it's like 17 years.

PlatyNumb2025-10-04 20:00
And story/world elements. Like the world tree, 9 realms, ragnarok, etc. Theres a lot different, especially in the details but its not a stretch to think odins eye could be the same
Steefmachine2025-10-04 20:09
The world tree and ragnarok is not the same as in the lore, but inspired by it- like the rest of the Movie-thingies
It’s not a stretch to think- I just told you it isn’t.
Knowledge should be shared to those who seek it.
poopoobuttholes2025-10-04 19:35
MCU Norse mythology has nothing to do with the real Norse mythology apart from character names.
PlatyNumb2025-10-04 19:45
>apart from character names.
And relationship and story elements. Theres more similarities than ppl realize. A lot more. I just cant remember if this is one of them or not
IL-Corvo2025-10-04 20:37
It's not.
KongRahbek2025-10-04 23:51
Like outside of Thor being Odins son, I'm not sure there's any relationships, which are accurate. Frigga isn't his mother, Loki isn't his brother, he's married to Sif.
Endgam2025-10-05 02:50
In-universe, Norse mythology is how humans interpreted what they saw.
The Asgardians are the Norse gods. The people writing the tales just didn't have that many details and resorted to making stuff up.
nage_2025-10-04 19:11

jramos0372025-10-04 20:02

It's the most fundamental problem with power scaling arguments in that everyone operates under the idea that power scales perfectly linearly and everyone can be neatly arranged on a power level chart. It's just dumb.
blackbutterfree2025-10-04 18:56
Thanos waited until he knew where all six Stones were. Which he found out when Nebula attempted to kill him and her memory banks revealed Gamora knew where the Soul Stone was.
Odin was never a factor.
jwbrkr742025-10-04 19:11
I was about to ask if we knew for sure that Thanos was waiting for Odin to no longer be a factor before going for the Space stone.
blackbutterfree2025-10-04 19:17
No, either the Russos or M&M shot down the whole "he was scared of the Ancient One and Odin" theory. Which was so dumb to begin with.
Majestic-Marcus2025-10-05 11:38
It’s definitely not dumb at all.
Strange handled 4 stone Thanos with ease. Thor defeated 6 stone Thanos with a single hit.
The Ancient One and Odin were more powerful than either of them at that point.
Whether that’s the canon reason or not isn’t relevant to whether the theory’s dumb or not. It still makes perfect sense narratively.
nakiva2025-10-04 19:39
I always tought Thanos was waiting for the perfect moment. He needed to know where all the Stones are, but also needed to be sure some of the more stronger "opponents" are ocupied.
It just happens that in the timeline everything basicly falls into Thanos's lap at the time of GotG 2/ ending of Ragnarok. somewhere after the events of GotG2 Nebula fails her assasination attempt and gets captured, revealing the Soul Stone. Ego dying is a big and strong opponent vanishing for Thanos. (they do not face off against eachother but they both have conflicting goals, putting them on opposit paths.)
Start of Ragnarok is the Death of Odin, another strong Opponent and a Self proclaimed guardian of the universe.
The Death of Odin is the oppertunity for Thanos to destroy Xandar and steal the power stone because Asgard is ocupied.
With his first stone it leads to the events of Infinty War.
So thats my head cannon somewhat.
MY-SECRET-REDDIT2025-10-04 23:57
In what if, Odin doesnt seem that more powerful than thor
Endgam2025-10-05 02:56
Exactly. MCU Odin =/= Comics Odin.
Asddddd62025-10-05 04:05
This is true but Odin definitely would have been a factor if he was still around, and Thanos specifically got the tesseract after ragnarok. If the tesseract was still on Asgard this would have been different. I’m not saying he wouldn’t have still gone for it. I just think Asgard under Odin is more of a threat than Xandar would have been to Thanos.
OdoWanKenobi2025-10-04 19:01
Thanos waiting until Odin died is nothing more than fan theory.

I called Odin a miserable...old...fool.

Loki blasted him into dust, so not that strong
LividLife55412025-10-04 19:31
oh god is that the lore in the MCU? so freaking blasphemous.
Odin drank from the well of knowledge and he agreed to give up an eye in exchange.
GorrTheButcher2025-10-04 20:02
They literally explain in the movie that he started infinity war once he knew where the last stone was because he got its location from nebula when she snuck on to his ship and tried to kill him.
This whole "waiting for Odin to die" theory is disproven if you just pay attention to the movie >.<

It has been many years. I apologize. This definitely makes a lot of sense! Thank you.
Raj_Valiant30112025-10-04 20:24
Loki singlehandedly vaporised him.
CosmicOutfield2025-10-04 20:35
Look at how Nick Fury got his eye injury in the MCU…
Dominant_Gene2025-10-04 20:49
if a wasp stings your eye you probably lose it. doesnt mean its more powerful than you

I hate he was violent, he seemed to be a chill dude.

can someone point me to the scene or dialog that suggest thanos waited till odin died to start his quest?
Rude_Toe_60662025-10-04 22:12
This looks like the guy from the 2000 mighty Morphin Power Ranger movie
CooperXL2025-10-04 23:01
We'll this guy didn't take Odin's eye... The MCU kind of waters down the comics to make the storyline more easy to follow in movies for commercial reasons ... In the comics #Thor 274 (and Norse mythology) Odin sacrifices his own eye at the well of Mimir to gain wisdom and knowledge... Hence his All-wise designation.
Rocketboy13132025-10-04 23:05
He didn't?
In myth, Odin dropped one of his eyes into the Well of Eons so that he could keep an eye on things to come. It is one of the main things that made him the God of Wisdom along with Mimnir's head being around to give him advice; the Runes that allowed him to know the names of all the Gods; his ravens, Huginn and Muninn; and drinking the Mead of Suttungr, which granted artistic powers related to poetry. There are likely other things.
Regardless, we don't see what costs Odin his eye, I would imagine that in the context of Marvel Movies he might have lost his eye using some device to see the future and change the course of events.
But they tend to make Odin a dipshit in Marvel comics, so maybe he sneezed while eating with a fork?

This is who my pupper is named after. Laufey is a G
VerbalChains2025-10-05 07:56
Sometimes strong people get taken by surprise, or caught on a bad day, and lose. That's probably how Odin lost an eye, and that's probably how Laufey died. Being powerful doesn't mean reality owes you an epic or dramatic death.

Rest in Peace, Andy aka Lorne. 🎤🎵✨
Genuinely can't remember
Otherwise, we might as well have the average human beating up gorillas
Not that I really give a shit about powerscaling, but it's dumb thinking in general

Character constantly teleporting/crossing entire continents in days in a show that was universally praised for realism and logical outcomes, and I call it out?
"Really, you're worried about travel distances in a show about dragons and magic? Give me a break"
I mean, frankly, I don't find it unbelievable to begin with that Odin could have issues with the frost giants, yet Thanos is still afraid of him. Especially given the possibility that Thanos and his armies could take Odin, Thor, and Asgard, but if all the Avengers joined Odin, he'd fail, and in contrast, Odin didn't have access to the Avengers against the frost giants.
But, I do agree with the principle that conversations about believability are important, even in fantastical stories. Suspension of disbelief can be applied in one instance and that doesn't mean it can be used as an excuse always. For example, I can suspend my disbelief and pretend Iron Man has some sort of tech that protects his body inside the suit, and stops his brain from turning to jelly every time he does a superhero landing. But outside of details like that, I still want character and story details to make sense. I don't think the Odin - frost giant thing is a plothole, but if it was, I'd care about it.
Reminds me of the build up to Endgames release. There was some madman in this sub claiming he 100% *knew* the blue ranger was the Avengers secret weapon. It was the only possible outcome that made sense. They’d totally heard it from their roommates cousin who once served Feige’s assistants brother coffee in Starbucks that one time.
Dude was either the greatest troll this sub ever saw or just *WAY* too far into the internet. Radio silence post endgame. I hope they’re ok haha.
Also - why the blue ranger? Why not Tommy? He’s obviously who they’d pick.
Sometimes the influence someone has over large group of people make them dangerous, not their power scaling.
It’s the thing they try to steal from Odin’s vault at the beginning of the first Thor movie and what Loki promises Laufey to trick him into attacking Odin. It’s also what he uses to freeze Heimdall. It’s basically a source of infinite cold from Niflheim. In Norse mythology Niflheim is a realm of cold and darkness, while Jotunheim just has giants. In marvel comics they’re both places of great cold, but apparently Niflheim is colder so having access to that cold makes Jotuns more powerful.
Which stones specifically?
Realistically he turns him into a plushie with the reality stone.
1. Seen Thanos coming thanks to his far seers
2. Made an elaborate plan because he’s wise
3. Had infinity stones, multiple planets worth of armies, magic, god killing weapons, and titanic monsters to throw at Thanos
Yeah I think he crushes him if Thanos decides to blitz Asgard in like Thor I
Odin sees Thanos plotting, bi frosts to him. Beats him to death without breaking a sweat.
Even old man Odin wouldn’t need an army to take on prime Thanos.
Odin absolutely bodies and toys with Thanos in the comics. He treats him like The Hulk treats Loki. Prime Odin versus Prime Thanos is like God Doom vs Thanos.
Well if he was paying attention, he surely would have noticed the entire Asgardian military freaking disappearing and the planet straight up exploded. With how fast he showed up to slaughter/rob the survivors, I think he did notice.
Thor have nothing to do with being worthy to lift the hammer in folklore for example, it’s just heavy af
It’s not a stretch to think- I just told you it isn’t.
Knowledge should be shared to those who seek it.
And relationship and story elements. Theres more similarities than ppl realize. A lot more. I just cant remember if this is one of them or not
The Asgardians are the Norse gods. The people writing the tales just didn't have that many details and resorted to making stuff up.
In the MCU he lost it in battle.

He prolly He won those rings while playing 1v5 after getting clapped for years with teammates.
Odin was never a factor.
Strange handled 4 stone Thanos with ease. Thor defeated 6 stone Thanos with a single hit.
The Ancient One and Odin were more powerful than either of them at that point.
Whether that’s the canon reason or not isn’t relevant to whether the theory’s dumb or not. It still makes perfect sense narratively.
It just happens that in the timeline everything basicly falls into Thanos's lap at the time of GotG 2/ ending of Ragnarok. somewhere after the events of GotG2 Nebula fails her assasination attempt and gets captured, revealing the Soul Stone. Ego dying is a big and strong opponent vanishing for Thanos. (they do not face off against eachother but they both have conflicting goals, putting them on opposit paths.)
Start of Ragnarok is the Death of Odin, another strong Opponent and a Self proclaimed guardian of the universe.
The Death of Odin is the oppertunity for Thanos to destroy Xandar and steal the power stone because Asgard is ocupied.
With his first stone it leads to the events of Infinty War.
So thats my head cannon somewhat.
Odin drank from the well of knowledge and he agreed to give up an eye in exchange.
