	Odin (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Odin is presumed to be the son of Bor (father, one of the first Asgardians) and Bestla (mother, a frost giantess).
		Odin is the father of Thor with Jord (actually Gaea), and the adoptive father of Loki.
		Odin was apparently strongly against his son meddling into the affairs of Midgard, but Thor chose to still remain on the planet and ignore his father's wishes.

	Comics Central Thor
		Odin had the matter settled by trial by combat in the volcanic World of Skartheim, "where even gods may perish." Bill won an evenly matched fight due to his distinct biological make up that caused the heat from the volcanic world to revive him.
		Eventually, Odin was found, imprisoned by Seth, the Egyptian god of death and, with a few hiccups, remained the Lord of Asgard until his recent true death.
		It is not associated with Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Image Comics, Darkhorse Comics and including all those that the author forgot to mention.

		Odin was a son of Bestla and Bor and brother of Vé and Vili and together with these brothers he cast down the frost giant Ymir and created the world from Ymir's body.
		Odin was a compulsive seeker of wisdom, consumed by his passion for knowledge, to the extent that he sacrificed one eye and also hung himself from the tree Yggdrasil, whilst pierced by his own spear, to acquire knowledge.
		The fickleness of Odin in battle was also well-documented, and in Lokasenna, Loki taunts Odin for his inconsistency.

	The Mighty Thor
		This status quo in the comics was shaken up in the 1980s under the authorship of Walt Simonson, beginning with Thor's encounter with the monstrous yet noble alien called Beta Ray Bill.
		Odin had the matter settled by combat in the volcanic World of Skartheim, "where even gods may perish." Bill won an evenly matched fight due to his distinct biological make up that caused the heat from the volcanic world to revive him.
		The Ultimate Marvel Universe version of the mighty Thor is either the son of Odin sent to Midgard (Earth) to save it from apathy and self-destruction or a lunatic, although Magneto has strongly hinted that he believed him to be a mutant and stated that Mjolnir is one of the most powerful weapons in Utlverse.

	Odin
		Odin is the grandson of Buri, the ancestor of the Asgardians, who is said to have emerged from the ice of the extra-dimensional realm of Niffleheim.
		In Odin’s absence, Balder the Brave was chosen to succeed Odin as Ruler of Asgard; Thor refused the throne preferring to remain guardian of Earth.
		Odin’s enchantments (such as the one he placed on Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir, to the thrower’s hand) last until he rescinds them or until they are overpowered by a superior enchantment.

		I'm just someone with a deep appreciation for the comic book's importance in our culture, and I want people to realize that there is a long and fascinating history behind the books they see on store shelves today.
		It can be a comic that inspired others to follow suit with its groundbreaking approach to storytelling or its success in the marketplace.
		It can be a comic that dared to do something a little different, and challenged people to reconsider their perceptions of what a comic book could do.

		Woodring's "Frank" comics, on the other hand, introduced a line of cartoony but bizarre little characters in a lonely, surreal environment, a strange and eerie combination of George Herriman and Walt Disney.
		And comics are the perfect medium for doing this because the materials are inexpensive and you have full artistic control.
		Comics are intimate, and they are perfect media for catching absurdities, transformations and changes of scene that occur in dreams; But on the other hand it's a little bit risky because everybody knows that it's boring to listen to somebody else's dreams if they are not told right.

	The Second-Stringers of Marvel Comics! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Odin sired a son, Thor, by the personification of the planet Earth, Gaea.
		Odin's other son is Loki, the adopted (but diminutive) frost giant who, like Thor, has never quite figured out how to gain his stern father's approval (and, since Loki's inclined to do things like transplant his own spirit into Odin's body, he isn't likely to get it anytime soon).
		The quarrels between Odin's two sons are legion and epic, and often require the intervention of their father.

	THOR
		Odin himself was killed, but a new Odin appeared in the place of several gods who survived Ragnarok, and it was this new Odin who fathered the current version of Thor.
		Odin then declared that he was reserving the use of Mjolnir for Thor, who would receive it on the day that great deeds of selfless valor had proved him worthy of it.
		Odin and Thor eventually learned that the constant shift of identity and sharing of power Odin had encouraged had driven Thor insane, marked by the appearance of a Valkyrie who was a manifestation of Thor's insanity.

	Heimdall (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Loki, in the guise of Odin banished him to the realm of dreams but he was rescued by Amora.
		Eric Masterson helped restore Odin and later Thor as well, but Heimdall and Amora drifted apart when Amora realized that his duty to Asgard was greater than his love for her.
		When Odin cast the Asgardians into the guises of mortals to protect them from a false Ragnarok, Heimdall became Donald Velez, and joined the other "Lost Gods" in attempting to rediscover who they were and battling the Egyptian death-god Seth.

	Thor #44 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		Upon spotting Odin's bow & quiver of arrows, we see Thor flashes back to a memory from his youth, where he & Loki "borrowed" Odin’s bow, and took to shooting arrows at a tree.
		We then see the Lady Sif enter the room, and she to remembers a time when Odin helped her gain entry into a bar that barred her entry because she was a woman.
		As for Sif's memory, Odin's actions seem more conceding than helpful, as this scene is like having your parents step in to chastise the neighborhood bully.

	The religion of Thor (Marvel Comics)
		Odin was the father and ruler of the Asgardian gods, but he was not regarded as omnipotent.
		That was the eye that Odin sacrificed to the Well of Mirmir, but it had grown a tad.
		He [Thor] might also worship their ancestors, such as Odin's father, Odin's grandfather, and the Elder of the Universe (I think he was an Elder) called Demiurge, from whose essence all of the Earth's pantheons sprang in the first place, at least according to the original Asgardian origin (not the "alien" one).

	Absorbing Man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Odin was amazed at this mortal's presumption but also horrified as he discovered that Creel was absorbing each of his offensives and becoming even stronger.
		Odin then advised them that his power lay not in a mere object, but deep within himself.
		Creel fought against Magneto and managed to injure him, but was then killed by Rogue when she absorbed his powers.

	Loki (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Loki himself is not a member of the Asgardians, but is actually the son of Laufey, the deceased monarch of the Frost Giants, the ancient enemies of the Asgardians.
		Odin himself led the Asgardians into battle against the Frost Giants and killed Laufey in personal combat.
		Odin took the boy, out of a combination of pity and because he was the son of a worthy adversary slain in honorable combat, and raised him as his son alongside his biological son Thor.

		His name is Rich the Comic Book Guy — or at least, that's the only name he'll give me. He's been selling comics for a long time — "too long," he says, declining to specify.
		Since he was laid off in February, though, selling comics has been his primary source of income, and he grimaces when I ask him about the coming winter.
		It was also not long after the ‘90s comics bubble burst, and the subsequent plummet in sales devastated retailers and put a tragically large number of comic book stores out of business.

		Vishnu was visited by Thor seeking the necessary life energies to resuscitate the Asgardians, but after putting the proposal to a vote, Vishnu and his brothers turned down the aid to Thor which caused a confrontation between Shiva and Thor which ended when Shiva realized how passionate Thor was to his cause.

	Braugi - Re: well. lets look at all those...
		That being the case, Rune Thor, who is significantly more powerful than Odin, certainly at least approaches Galactus' levels, and may well surpass them.
		Further, his diminished form was portrayed as powerful enough to give Galactus pause when confronted with a fight, and didn't do as well against Thanos as Odin did IMO (and was unable to so casually KO guys of Surfer's level).
		As such, IMO Tyrant is in Odin's typical ballpark, meaning that the Runepowered Thor, who is IMO clearly more powerful than Odin is...more powerful.
