Iceman & His Amazing Frost Jotunness!

In the Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends episode The Vengeance Of Loki (1981 CE, S1 E10), there's a total babe alert in deposed Frost Jotunness Queen Zerona:


[blue jotunness fever, indeed!]

In the show Zerona finds a quick admiration for the flirtatious & like-elemental Iceman who helps her out, first against usurper Ymir, and then to actually reclaim Jotunheim from Surtur himself!


[watch this near-extraworldly romance unfold here!] 

Collegiate Bobby's libidinous and not-quite altruistic gallantry in helping Zerona matches accounts of the desirability of some giant maidens.

In the Norse Lore, when we look at the genealogy of the Æsir, we see an early intermarriage of proto-Gods Búri & Borr, the former probably marrying/mating with an unnamed jotunness, and his son who marries giantess Bestla to produce Odin & his brothers. Later we have Thor with jotunness Jarnsaxa producing his three children, and ice maiden Gerðr & Freyr's marriage. Both Njörðr & Ullr have relations with wintery Skaði, and All-Father Odin seduces ice giantess Gunnlöð to have writerly Bragi, and later giantess Gríðr to produce boot-wielding Víðarr.

None of these relationships seem to overtly indicate a portion of deterrent to the prophecy of Ragnarök, but in noting that such a doom hasn't come to pass, perhaps part of an implied answer to continue staving off the final battle is to intimately warm up to the fairer portion of the jotunn ladies, which sounds like a pretty pleasure-filled negotiative NorsePlay'd solution to gain an extension on existence for all of us.

NorsePlay Interviews: Vikingverse Author Ian Stuart Sharpe!

Image
NorsePlay recently reviewed the Vikingverse series , and I loved it so much, I've reached out to its author & creator  Ian Stuart Sharpe to bring you this Q&A interview filled with all the inquiries his brilliant what-if-the-Vikings-had-conquered-the-world masterwork compelled me to ask.  For background, Sharpe's  career as a published writer started with the first Vikingverse installment, The All Father Paradox (2018 CE), continued with sequel Loki's Wager (2020 CE), gained even more literal public support with his crowdfunded Vikingverse graphic novel,  The Jötunn War (2021 CE), and then an equally fan-supported  Vikingverse -adjacent phrasebook Old Norse For Modern Times (2021 CE).   Sharpe's from London, UK, did some growing up in East Anglia, and now lives in Oak Bay, British Columbia, Canada. His longer tech career includes working for the BBC, IMG, Atari, and Electronic Arts. [Note that this interview does contain spoilers. Now, onto the meat 'n&

Thor brings the rains ... and the hot buttered grains.

Thor was also considered the farmer's god because his storms summoned the needed rains that watered the fields of grain. In this very modern case, $15 at Thor: Ragnarok brings a promotional keepsake bucket of movie popcorn with a lid styled after his Contest of Champions winged helmet! Let the cosplay begin! #    #    # Guillermo Maytorena IV knew there was something special in  the Norse Lore when he picked up a copy of the d'Aulaires'  Norse Gods and Giants  at age seven.

Freyr's last stand.

Image
NorsePlay has long admired Sam Flegal's work so much we've featured it as our collection's banner from the beginning until now. The work is Freyr's Last Stand (2014). We love his take on the dwarven wrought golden boar Gullinbursti as a mechanical war steed . [Check out Flegal's other work & gets awesome prints at www.fatefulsigns.com .] #    #    # Guillermo Maytorena IV knew there was something special in  the Norse Lore when he picked up a copy of the d'Aulaires'  Norse Gods and Giants  at age seven.
