I don't think the fans of the show would really expect the Avengers version to be honest. Yes the Marvel Avengers are a Disney owned product but I really can not see the Avengers fiting into Once at all!!

I do agree that Josh was mentioning his role in the first Thor film and I would be quick to say it was pure conicdental and not a clue to future stories if that was the only clue. I know we had a shot of Thor's hammer which to me is a big clue to future plots. We have seen everything from his castle being part of major storylines with the excpetion of maybe Jason's fleece and the bear model (although I can see that being linked to the Merida storyline somehow).

I do like the idea of bringing Thor's hammer to Storybrook, perhaps the new savior could use it against the DO Dagger. If not against Dark Emma perhaps Loki who is manipulating the darkness. The savior would have to be worthy and perhaps stories leading up to allowing that someone to prove themselves. We could have Thor travelling to Storybrook and accuse the people of storybrook of stealing his hammer etc, perhaps he could be a part time enemy who soon realises Loki's involvement. These are just ideas as I really want Asgard lol.

However I see your point about the backlash of not doing Marvel's Asgard and not featuring the Avengers. I think if the writers were to ever do Asgard they will prob fold under pressure to do a story that would be most profitble. (I don't know why the world seems obsessed with the Avengers but there we go) But the thing I love about Once is their unique way of creating new spins of characters, the way they rewrite the stories to make them more interesting, so I would hope that even if they did the Marvel Asgard they could slightly rewrite the stories or change some of the characters history, perhaps just focusing on Asgard and not feature any other Avenger.
