Vikings in San Diego

Today is the last day of Comic-Con in San Diego, and I expect a lot of the panel discussions and various trailers to make their way into the public realm.  One of the trailers viewed this past week was season four of the History Channel's Vikings.  The scenes portray more adventures in England and France as the vikings attempt to solidify their hold while also jockeying for power back home.  Ragnar is now an international leader needing to fight on multiple fronts.  

Last seasons battle for Paris was amazing to watch.  The techniques of the Parisian war machine was sufficient to wipe out any foe, yet Ragnar's band learned from their mistakes and outsmarted the French in the end.  Only Game of Thrones has attempted anything like the battle in recent memory, which is saying a lot.  Clearly the History Channel is not afraid to invest in this series.  I just hope the vikings stick around for awhile, which is not something the English and French want to hear. 

And don't forget the Vikings fans.  This video shows a small part of the fan base for this show.  You can catch the rest of them at your local medieval fair.
