Utgarda-loki, The frost giant from Mythic Battles: Ragnarok

Buenas Tardes! Merry #Thorsday

This comic is actually similar to a Norse myth of the tides … the giant Útgarða-Loki tricked Thor into consuming *almost* all of a mead horn that was (unbeknownst to Thor) tapped into the Oceans …

Útgarða-Loki
by Johan Egerkrans (Sweden)

Optimist: the cup is half full

Pessimist: the cup is half empty

Thor while visiting Utgarða-Loki: what do you mean, the damn cup is still full?

In Norse myths, the jotun Útgarða-Loki told Thor and Loki that they could only eat in his hall if they competed in some contest. Loki cleverly asked for his contest to be an eating one. He lost, since his opponent was actually Logi (Fire), and ate everything, even the bowls and table.

A little peak at what I'm working on

Thorkil was a great explorer in Norse mythology who wanted to meet the gods. According to the "Gesta Danorum," he guided the Danish king Gorm to the castle of the troll Geirrodur in Jotunheim. Later, Thorkil found his way to a cave where the giant Utgarda-Loki was chained.

In Norse myths, when King Útgarða-Loki demanded that each of Thor's retinue perform a great feat, Thor's servant Thjálfi offered to outrace anyone in Útgarða-Loki's court. He only lost because the person he raced was a thought, and nothing is faster than a thought.

Honestly, Diet Mountain Dew is pretty woke. Real men drink mountain dew from the magical horn of Utgarda-Loki himself.

In norse mythology, Loke did that to trick Tor. He made him battle old age. That is a battle you can not win, even if you are a god. They decided in the end that that it would be better for "both sides" if they did not meet again.

útgarða-loki

*double checks*

It's the myth concerning Utgarda-Loki.

Had cause to look it up again, and I'm always struck by how, in the story where the Giant Útgarða-Loki gives Thor tasks to prove his strength, one is to lift the world serpent Jörmungandr disguised as a cat, and can't,

And at least one artist just made the cat get super long. The way cats do.

Peer-reviewed studies have shown that drinking the entire volume of the horn of Útgarða-Loki alleviates morning sickness in 9 out of 10 Jotnar.

No, not *that* Loki, the other one! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9At...
