A lot of them go to study and work abroad..?

My understanding was that Asgardians aren't immortal, though, so they do die and there is some generational change to keep the balance in numbers, only it happens veeeery slowly..?

I guess the wars they have often faced "helped" to kill many adults, too.

I think we asked once about how time passes in Asgard too! I'm still curious about that.

Hawthorn

...Which reminds me that Marvel hasn't printed that detailed guide we have been asking for for a year now. Uffi.

miranstarr

Yes, where the hell is my comprehensive guide to the MCU?

Hawthorn

They could at least set up a section with detailed information on the movies' official websites. Don't they know anything about geeks?!

miranstarr

I knoooow! Kevin Feige, get cracking on the book please!

Hawthorn

Stop wasting money on hideous photoshopping sessions and invest them in smarter initiatives.

miranstarr

You would think that would be a priority.

Hawthorn

Someone has to grill Feige with very specific questions about the movie-verse, then - once he fails spectacularly to answer them - perhaps he'll take the matter seriously.

miranstarr

Let's roll. I'll ask him a basic comics question first to whet his appetite. "So, Kevin Feige. The Man. If we meld Cap's shield and Mjölnir together, would it be the strongest weapon of the whole Nine Realms? Being that the shield is made up mostly of vibranium and nearly indestructable (and now infused with Asgardian uru giving it somewhat of a mystical element) and Mjölnir is made of the Dwarven uru and magically enchanted, stronger and more resilient, why hasn't someone made a weapon comprising both of these elements to help ward off invasions?"

Hawthorn

GREAT QUESTION.

Feige will stare at you, his eyes will get a bit glossy after the first 10 seconds... then he'll tell you he really has to go, unfortunately, because of a strong suspicion that he left the oven on at home, and will run off to gather together a team to write the MCU guide.

miranstarr

Just the reaction I wanted.

Hawthorn

I'm expecting my book on sale by spring 2014, Feige.

miranstarr

What movie question are you going to ask him?

Hawthorn

Hmmm... how do Asgardians age in the movie-verse, how did Odin plan to reveal Loki's heritage if he meant his adoption to bring peace between the two realms/races, whether Loki can change back permanently in his Jotun form, how quickly do hair grow in the Realm Eternal...
You know, serious stuff.
