It was an old book... I'm pretty sure it was a book, and pre-1990's I think.
The basic plot was this man somehow interacted with this tree, and as a result he became a carrier of the tree's 'seed'. They were in a symbiotic relationship: the man got a much longer life, more strength, etc.; but whe...
In 2017, the science fiction film, 'They ate from the finest porcelain' by Larissa Sansour was shown at the Barbican, London.
Gillian Merron, the then chief executive of the Board of Deputies, an umbrella organisation representing British Jews accused the Barbican of promoting anti-Semitism by gi...
I think there are two aspects to this question, "why did Thor go to Earth?" and then "how did he know to go to Wakanda?" The first is pretty clear and answerable but I'll include it to be complete, the second is still speculation but we can make some educated guesses.
Why did Thor go to Earth?
Th...
The following Wikia "tech" analysis replaces my earlier character-based analysis.
Simply put, this origin story is complete [insert expletive]. It was made up by a user who's either a troll, or completely unaware Wikias aren't their personal fanfiction sites.

The Whitecloaks ride around telling people what to do. They are unwelcome everywhere they go. They have spotless uniforms and tents to maintain as well as horses. They can afford lodgings and drinks in taverns.
Maintaining an army costs money. Where do they get it from? Who would want to fund them?
The German TV show Dark obviously has a certain name. But why was this name chosen?
Typically, the name of a series has a connection with its main plot point. Obviously, the cave that contains the passage between times is dark (duh). But that seems a little mundane, especially compared to the hea...
Where did Voldemort live? If he was so special, and clearly he thought so, where was "his" manor? Did he just mooch off other people's homes or camp out hobo style all the time? Where did he sleep with Bellatrix? (A little vomit just came up my throat...) For that matter where did Bellatrix li...

Duh!
But, do the books ever describe what he actually looks like? I found a diagram by Tolkien himself:

I just started reading Fellowship, completed h...
