They are so many areas they can be drawing from and in just typing that out yeah I kind answer my question based on the makeup of Marvel and DC staff I should not be surprised they are not good at handling stuff from other cultures.

    It is still interesting Thor is really only one that has caught on I mean we have Eternals and demigods like Wonder Woman or Hercules or sort Avatars of gods like Black Panther, Shazam or Moon Knight as what is being used. Should have something else broken out by now I mean through Thor and Norse Mythology shouldn't Baldur,Tyr, Sif, Loki, Valkyries have blown up big as well.
    It happened with the Loki character in the MCU and maybe the next ones will be the Valkyries...

    It would have been nice to see Valkyrie (Brunhilde/Barbara Norriss) in this book responding to the summons. It feels like an old television show where they name someone familiar to the audience, but we never see them onscreen.

    Although Brunhilde did not respond to the summons, Valtrauta did well in her stead...

    Thor #312 Oct 1981
    "Baptism of Fire!"
    The nine Valkyries assemble before Odin and he explains their mission:
    they were created to bring the worthy dead to the Halls of Valhalla but now Hela, Goddess
    of Death, has invaded and annexed Valhalla to her lands—and their mission is to get it back.

    The Valkyries ride and when they try to enter Niffleheim

    they find themselves riding through a wall of fire guarded by demons.

    They fight but are overwhelmed by the demons’ numbers so Valtrauta orders them to bathe in
    the enchanted waters which allows them to pass unharmed through the wall of flames and to Valhalla….
