Also support the preggers theory. Hod was always a troublemaker. That's why he's cool! Where'd Loki get to? And what are counter measures against the woman with Mjolnir? At the crankiest possible stage of her life possible? (Death of Thor + Morning Sickness = Destruction and Terror of Apocalyptic Magnitude.) On a side note, Thor is dead :( I was almost sad, but the comic is just too funny. I love Sif!

I've got most of the next big storyline plotted out. It's called "Backup Dad" and it's based on a fun idea from my 6-year old daughter. She drew that bonus comic up there. She's got a pretty wild imagination (I wonder where she gets that from). In fact, she told me the other day she wants to do a 30-page comic based on her dragon character, it's pet cat, and a troll that sounds like it might wind up being either the dragon's punching bag or butler (she wasn't too clear on the troll's role in the story, but she wanted one in her comic). She's scary talented in some ways too. The past couple days, she's been using my big whiteboard to draw as many pokemon as she can from memory. I count 65 so far (and though I don't want to admit it, I recognize a lot of them). @Gboo531 - Nope, Brat-halla isn’t coming to an end anytime soon.

Referencing back to comic #310, they have a goddess that is mistress of the realm, whom they were BARELY able to knock out, currently in sonic sleep, and who could be awakened if something goes wrong with the machinery.

And they have Sif in Berserker mode with Thor's hammer entering the front door (after "knocking") seeking to do serious damage to the fortress and everyone in it. Want to place odds that Sif's rampage will awaken the second goddess? (I am thinking 1-to-1) And then what happens when they meet? They could fight and destroy the fortress as collateral damage, team up and REALLY destroy the fortress, or fight then team up. No matter what happens, the fortress has seen its last sunrise, and probably sunset. Hod is certainly going to be "popular" with the ladies today. Mark S. Just had a thought.

Or maybe he knew better and made a last minute switch with Alaunus for some nice, quiet patrol duty. :) @Summer - My wife thought the exact same thing and considering Hod did force Ragnarok to start early, it is a possibility.

Seriously, though - Sif as a beserker over the body of her recently deceased Thor is a force to be reckoned with!!! I don't think that is Balder. I checked back on episode 306 for the list of who is on which side, and my guess is Alaunus, since he is the male not wearing horns (Cernunnos) and that we have not seen in a previous episode (Dagda) - and he is a little too tall to be one of the dwarves.
