Skurge is like my dark sawbuck pet character . The way we go about him is , he ’s an Asgardian redneck . He ’s congresswoman of the everyman , more like an foot soldier . He ’s part of the warrior cultivation in Asgard . He ’s not as high - profile as Thor or Sif or the Warriors Three . He ’s about wanting realization and palpate like he could do so much more .
