10 Easter Eggs To Watch Out For In Thor: Ragnarok

Thor: Ragnarok is undoubtedly one of the most entertaining MCU movies to date, and a big reason why is because it's busting with ideas, with the movie acting as a kind of blend of various different comic book storylines. Apart from dealing with the events of Ragnarok, there's a lot of Planet Hulk in it, too, as well as bits of recent Thor comics from writer Jason Aaron.

Skurge’s Last Stand

Recommended Videos

And just who is this henchman? Karl Urban plays Skurge in Thor: Ragnarok (with a weird shaky cockney accent, but we’ll pass over that for the moment) and his character arc in the movie pays lip service to his most famous moment from the comics.

Initially Heimdall’s replacement as the guardian of the Bifrost, Skurge swears his loyalty to Hela once she arrives to take over Asgard. By the end of the movie, though, his conscience gets the better of him and Skurge sacrifices himself in order to protect the people of Asgard and take Hela down.

In the comics, Skurge plays the same role for the Enchantress. Just like in the film, he had a change of heart in The Mighty Thor #362 and goes out all guns blazing with a pair of machine guns in place of his usual axe. Skurge’s comic book nickname The Executioner is also alluded to in the film when Hela appoints him her official executioner. Even if he doesn’t actually kill anyone in the movie.
