after re-reading Loki's rebirth, it came to me that I didn't know how long it took for Asgardian's to age. it seems that they all grow older but they stop at a certain point. do they age like humans until they reach a certain age? or do they age gradually, e.g a century = a year?
Thor
Character » Thor appears in 8592 issues.
Thor Odinson is the All-father of Asgard /God of Thunder, offspring of All-Father Odin & Elder-Goddess Gaea. Combining the powers of both realms makes him an elder-god hybrid and a being of no perceivable limits. Armed with his enchanted Uru hammer Mjolnir which helps him to channel his godly energies. The mightiest and the most beloved warrior in all of Asgard, a staunch ally for good and one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse/omniverse. Thor is also a founding member of the Avengers.
Asgardian ageing
Thor is multi millions years old but that could be a bad example because he's half elder god and Elder gods are true immortals. but Volstag who is a regular asgardian is eveen older than him.
Asgardians are virtual Immortals; they age in an extremely slow rate upon reaching adulthood through the periodic consumption of the Golden Apples of Idunn that keep their vigor and youth as shown in Thor: Ages of Thunder One-shot. Plus it is also written in Norse Mythology...
I think that is retconned about the Golden Apples.Odin lived for thousands or millions of years.
Again, I think it's rather vague and inconsistent and subject to the whims of the writer.
far more than a thousand.
you are right.depends on a writer.everything in Marvel dies.

IIRC In TGOT Thor said the first time he came to earth humans still used sticks and stones..

The Stone Age was 2.5 million years ago... The Asgardians aging really depends on the writer.
i replied to the wrong post so i deleted it.

yeah you are right.it depends on a writer.Im not surprised that Odin is that old but Thor thats weird.

I remember another story where there's a hieroglyphic of Thor inside of a pyramid.

hm weird.in one story they are immortal,in another they use Golden Apples.then Angela and Freya should be milions of years old in that case.
@goodboy6: Do you remember how long ago it was that Odin sealed off the tenth realm?

I dont know,do you???should be in the stone age or before since Angela is older than Thor.
well,Asgardians are in fact immortal.also considering that Angela is still young like she is in her early 20s,despite being millions of years old(Thor said that he was alive when people still lived in caves and Angela is older than him)and she is a Goddess(daughter of Odin and Freya).it all depends on a writers.one writer loves more real Norse mythology while others want more logical choice to make Gods immortal.even Stan Lee said that Thor is immortal.its not right to type on a wiki or comic vine "Longevity".it should be immortality.
Wow nice scan, here's another clue since we see how long Loki has lived for despite not being a true Asgardian:
@alligatian: From which comic is that?
they also seem to get stronger with age (?)
there is also some comics that show that they used to need to eat the iddun apples like the mythology to be immortal
they also seem to get stronger with age (?)
there is also some comics that show that they used to need to eat the iddun apples like the mythology to be immortal
what happened to those apples anyway?
they are either forgotten or they were destroyed when Asgardia went to the Sun.
characters likes Cul, Hela and Angela never needed them.

Yeah they were are forgotten all the time except in chaos war, to amp herc where apperently all (or many) of the pantheons have something like that ambrosia etc
the best excuse i can come up to this is the fact that asgardians change from ragnarok to ragnarok and they only needed in the 23rd ragnarok
It´s the same with asgardians breathing in space. Aaron says they can (Thor thinks well to Jane Thor to be in the moon then she must be an asgardian), Hicman says Thor can hold his breath a lot, angela can breath in space,
@asgardianweapon: they'll probably mention it in Official Handbook this July.
