Re: Anticipating the ageing trajectories of superheroes in the Marvel cinematic universe
Dear Editor
We’d like to thank the authors for this brilliant insight into the future of the Marvel Universe. We really enjoyed it.
We would just like to ask the authors what they based their assumption on that Thor doesn’t age? In Thor:The Dark World it is mentioned that the Asgardian Life span is around 5000 years and we see Odin die from old age in Thor Ragnorok.
In Avengers: End Game Thor is around 1500 years old and undergoes significant physical changes from change in life style. It would have been interesting to see what the authors predictions of his future would have been.
