After all who needs a whole team of heroes if Prof X can just mind zap bad guys into submission? Since the names Of the books aren't The Mighty Odin or the Uncanny Xavier, Odie and Chuck have to be put out of commission so Thor and the X-Men can shine.NorRadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00367705033391265187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-31553515806017574022016-02-25T18:44:54.343-05:002016-02-25T18:44:54.343-05:00Yeah, Odinsleep is more of a narrative device to g...Yeah, Odinsleep is more of a narrative device to get a powerful character out of the picture.<br /><br />It's damn hard to write a story when you have such a powerful character present. That character then becomes the obvious way to resolve the conflict every time, or you have to explain why they don't or can't. Hence: odinsleep!

After all, Dracula is living yet dead and he walks...'nuff said. I googled "Odinsleep" to see if it really existed in Norse mythology. It didn't. Thought not. I couldn't really imagine the Norse Odin needing a nap every so often to replenish his powers... Marvel's Odin is a wimp :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
