Who knew marvel comics Zeus was originally a dead ringer for marvel comics Odin.

"The World Beyond!"
Thor returns to Asgard from Earth so that he might travel into the World Beyond
for his father Odin, however he finds that he may have arrived too late;
Thor rushes into the throne room to find Odin in utter despair. When Thor inquires about what's wrong,

Odin has his Grand Vizier activate the Coals of the Cosmos to show him the World Beyond,
and how it is growing rapidly, consuming the known universe as it grows;
Odin explains that he sent the Warriors Three into the World Beyond and they failed to stop it;

Odin also shows Thor that some of their old foes: Galactus, Mangog

Sucks that the Warriors Three were killed by Hela in the Marvel Cinematic Universe I liked them.

"Milady Jane fights like a true Asgardian--" the comicbook character Thor complimenting the comicbook character Jane Foster
I'd like to hear the MCU Thor say this to the MCU Jane...or her alter ego the MCU Thordis!

Thor #126 Mar 1966

Thor and Hercules fight over Jane Foster;

Odin, still angry because Thor revealed his identity to Jane,

removes half of Thor's powers by giving 'Odin Power' to Seidring.

To me, instead of a marvel superhero vs another marvel superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe this battle instead should be between the supervillain Wrecker and superhero Thor and that can lead to the formation of the Wrecking Crew!

The Silent One leads Thor to Hela,

who tries to kill Thor,

but The Silent One gives his life to save Thor;

It was nice seeing Hela debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe last decade. This decade I'd like to see Amora the Enchantress' debut in the MCU.

The MCU Amora is to be revealed to have saved the blonde Valkyrie's essence who saved Tessa Thompson's Valkyrie character from Hela as seen in Thor: Ragnarok..

..the first step in guiding the MCU Amora into becoming a sort of anti-hero like the MCU Loki.

Aside from the Time Variance Authority making their Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in the Loki Disney+ series ...might there also be cameo appearances of Zarrko The Tomorrow Man and The Time Twisters?
