Greetings True Believers!

I love Walter Simonson's run on The Mighty Thor. One of my favorite bits is the work he did with Volstagg.

"Volstagg possessed a strength the world had never seen. A strength surpassed only by the power of his heart."

(Come on, you know where I cribbed that from. Let's hear it.)

Plus Thor puts little boys to sleep with his magic hammer.

Enjoy!



Kevin and Mick's mother has been killed by one of Thor's foes.



Thor completes his adventure, slays his foe and returns for the boys.




Later Mick and Kevin are sad about their mom.





You see, that's what is great about Volstagg. His biggest part isn't his stomach, it's his heart. He's already got 18 kids by Odin but he doesn't hesitate to take in two more. And Hildy is head of the welcoming committee for Camp Volstagg.

BRING BACK VOLSTAGG'S WIFE AND KIDS!!!!

He's already got 18 kids by Odin . . .

Well, if they're wives were okay with it and Asgardian science could support the mpreg, I suppose that's okay then.

Well, we know Asgardian science supports interspecies mpreg, so same-species mpreg should be a snap!

Oh good, so I take it that it's not unreasonable that Volstagg's family should remind me of the perfect, happy Mormon family on South Park?

I'm thinking these may just be the kids who haven't reached physical maturity. Volstagg and Gudrun may have been married and having kids for hundreds of years. Or thousands.

I'm grinning to big to post anything coherent. It's an effect often associated with Volstaag.

Excuse me... I have something in my eye...

Aw hell, if you can't shed a manly tear after such awesomeness, what's the point of a tear duct in the first place?

I love that with Volstagg, there's absolutely no hesitation about taking on two more kids, he's LEAPING at the chance to be daddy to two lost kids. (and I stress (though I hope I don't have to) I mean that in the most wholesome way imaginable)

Volstagg: Has the largest heart of any Asgardian.

And that's probably true physically as well as figuratively.

So much love for Volstagg, i'm hoping one day we see Kevin and Mick older, wanting to come back to visit earth for a bit, and sneaking away. Then Hildy and company has to chase them down across Midgard as an adventure. That alone would make my buy any comic.

And they end up in the LA area, and meet a certain group of runaway superheroes, and a certain super-awesome little girl meets Hildy and they go off on adventures forever.

Can we just get a book about Volstagg now? And can it be filled with Volstagg doing things that make people smile? That'd be nice, now somebody hand me a tissue to wipe away these manly tears I seem to be shedding.

Okay, now I really really want a Tales of Volstagg The ______! (Fill in the blank with a new synonym for "awesome" each issue.) It'd be Commander McBragg-ish, but all in canon. Kinda like an uber-Incredible Hercules.

Well, as the boys' mother was slain by one of Thor's foes, it is therefore Thor's duty to see that they are provided with a home and hearth.

Wait, so were they adopted by Volstagg? Because I would love to see teen-nanigans with Volstagg's children and his adopted Midgardian tiwns. And HILDY.
