: I have been obsessing about this who Thor&Lori & Bartleby & Loki
thing for a few weeks now.
: Since I made the connection between Odin adn God played by
Alanis/Bud Cort (the god who likes to where disguises and surprise
people, the god who likes to play jokes, you know, god with a sense
of humor), I have been wondering what the connection is -- Did Kevin
Smith read The Mighty Thor when he was a teen?
: Does anyone know?
: There's other parallels as well: The theme of being sent to earth to
live among humans until one is forgiven, the characters being used
by a more destructive entity who would use them to destroy the
universe and all creation, the jealousy between the characters based
on a sense of being less favored in God's eyes, and stories taking
place in several arenas including heaven, hell, hel, Aasgard, and
earth.
: If anyone has heard anything confirming this, I'd love to hear it.
: If not, if anyone has any idea of another way I could get this question
answered, I'd love to know that too.
: Any help appreciated.
: Pixie.
