The epic thus far.....Loki and the Enchantress have turned the entire population of Asgard into babies and convince the Power Pack to steal the Golden Apples of Idunn for his "sick wife".

Before we move on. Tiny Thor rides on the back of Baby Ray Bill! Squeal!



Julie, Katie, Jack, TThor and Baby Bill find the way to Idunn's golden house but first they must face....The Squirrel of Mischief!!!





The Squirrel runs away like a being who could not win because Katie's power level is over 9000.

Today's lesson: DO NOT FUCK WITH KATIE POWER!!

They reach Idunn's crib and Thor proves he's a smoothie with the ladies.



They use the casket to grab the apples and bring them back to "Koil" and oh noes!!!



The cute of this mini is forever!

I'm a a straight male....and I would buy a plushy of Baby Ray Bill in a heartbeat.

[aaron_bourque]

Me too. I might buy more than one, I've got two nephews and a niece!

[darkknightjrk]

"Time to give Thor the spanking he deserves..."

...Are you SURE this is an all-ages comic? :O

[aaron_bourque]

. . .

Anyone who would sexualize that in the context of baby Thor . . . probably shouldn't be reading all-ages comics.

[terrykun]

Alex: Tied up... by... smoking hot... blonde evil lady... SO... conflicted!

[proteus_lives]

If he's anything like Nightwing, it will haunt his dreams.

[arilou_skiff]

My thought exactly.

[cmdr_zoom]

Motto.

Meanwhile, Julie's lucky that Loki's tunic is long in front, or she'd be getting quite the closeup.

[silverzeo]

So that's where Omi got his fear of squirrels. ....

[arilou_skiff]

Heh.

Which reminds me I need to post that bit where Katie tres to figure out if her future version of her is the real one...

[shadowpsykie]

the Loners version of herself?

[amaniwolf]

This is so cute, i ....i'm overloaded on cute.

[kirke_novak]

I need this. I need this SO much.

[joasakura]

[valtyr]

OMG Thor twisting his cloak and blushing. And riding little Bill! I am so getting the trade of this. Maybe a couple, for gifts.

I like:

the visual trick of the Squirrel being much larger than originally thought,

Katie Power (she should meet up with Molly and have butt-kicking adventures together),

how Idunn's hair springs back into a curled-up braid,

sad little tied-up Little Ray Bill,

how concerned the ravens are for Odin.

[nezchan]

<3 <3 <3 for the peep-peep ravens!

[goodfellow-puck.livejournal.com]

THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER. I will totally buy this. Please make more, guys! :D

Cute!

[roguefankc]

Is this available as a trade or will be available soon?

Ew! Boys are gross!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was always under the impression that the boys would always say "Girls are gross/icky" while the girls were usually a little more "Boys are OK" as long as they were a good friend/playground partner.

I mean, in my elementary school years, whenever we played tag or hide and seek, it's always the boys who said "Girls have cooties!" and the girls just played tag regardless of it being a boy or a girl.

Re: Cute!

[silverzeo]

Maybe it's a reversal in different countries.

"The Squirrel runs away like a bitch"

Misogynist language isn't needed to make your point.

[clueless-prime.livejournal.com]

Is this really misogynist? The usual concept of "bitch" as a pejorative term for a woman strikes me as implying qualities which are very much at odds with running away from something. It seems to me to be more likely a case of homonyms. The phrase "like a bitch", in my mind at least, seems quite divergent from the usage of calling someone "a bitch" and much more closely related to calling them "somebody's bitch", which I've always heard as a gender neutral insult. And the idea I've always associated with that phrase is not "bitch" as a misogynist insult, but rather "bitch" defined as a female dog. The idea of "running away like a bitch" conveys to me the idea of someone so badly defeated as to end up seeming subhuman, slinking off with their tail between their legs, not someone behaving like a woman of any sort.

Of course, all of this is really moot; if you find the phrase offensive or misogynist, I am by no means trying to invalidate that. Even if the phrase itself wasn't meant to or doesn't directly convey misogyny, it bringing to mind associations with other uses of the word is enough to trigger that reaction anyway. I merely think it brings up questions that are potentially interesting, at the very least on an academic level: can a word that is misogynistic or otherwise offensive in some uses be seen as neutral in others? And if so, is it acceptable to use such a word in those contexts expecting that others will recognize the intent, or is the association with other uses too strong?

2nd page, 2nd panel, Tiny!Thor spinning his hammer.

I can just hear him shout "I Say Thee Nay!!!"

[thanekos]

somehow, i never thought ratatosk's tail was that bushy

[bluefall]

Yeah, I always figured him for an arctic ground squirrel. I'm less surprised by the vicious mouth full of shark teeth than I'd have expected, though.

[icon_uk]

Knew I should have laid in the insulin before reading this much cute! :)

[big_daddy_d]

*passes out from cuteness overload* Baby Thor..riding Baby Ray Bill..so much.. cuteness.

Btw is that baby Nick Fury in the last page?

[arilou_skiff]

Baby Odin. With Baby Hugin & Munin.

[leikomgwtfbbq]

fdfjdsklfjdslfjslfd THERE MUST BE A SERIES FEATURING THE ADVENTURES OF TINY THOR AND BABY RAY BILL.

or at least a plushie Baby Ray Bill. WANT. *grabby hands*

[psychopathicus_rex]

Ratatosk ATTACK! You know, I never actually pictured him having powers like that. In my mind, he was just a regular sort of squirrel, intelligence and so forth notwithstanding, whose main function was just to zip up and down the tree.
