Ragnarök

Wow! That's pretty scary - Farmer Giles' dog Garm is actually the Hound of Hell?!

The most interesting comparison between Tolkien's Last Battle and Ragnarök (apart from the Gimli thing) is that Ragnarök is an ending and a beginning. Tolkien's world doesn't have this cyclic ending, does it? What happens after the Last Battle (whatever it's called)?
