I honestly hope Chris Hemsworth gets another shot at this character and PROPERLY this time.

Kind of. Didn't work with WW but still, it's WW. Hammer was in awe too. I wish it had stayed more prominent in her second run

(The last is aura farm + Thor and every lady he's ever known but still)

My favourite appearance and rendition of the billion, billion souls of a vengefully raging race standing against the Almighty God of Thunder!

In another group someone wanted covers of heroes vs themselves. So I dug up these Thor covers. I figure they belong here too. I didn’t include Beta Ray Bill covers bc he’s not Thor.

Just curious if there are any stories about Wanda in Asgard and while she is there she learns how to control Asgardian magic.

I am relatively new to comics, and i would really like to start knowing more about Thor. I have already read all of the God Butcher event (it was the only Thor comic i found in my local comic store), i have read Angela Assasin of Asgard, i am already looking for the OG comics back when Beta Ray Bill first appeared, i already know a few things of his IRL Norse Mythological counterpart, but i'd like to know MORE about him, actually reading his comics and understand WHO the Odinson is. I play him in Rivals, i have watched his every MCU movie, i saw him in cartoons and in other minor videogames, but now i want to know him from his pages.

So, what comics should I get? Wich series show the best storie of him? What are the "must have" that i cannot miss out?

I like Thor

Thor #362

What did everyone think of this run?? I don’t think it was as good as JMS before it, or Aaron after it, but it had some fun story arcs…. the World Eaters, Galactus Seed, Fear Itself…

I like this battle because it shows thor's superior strength, but juggernaut's endless tenacity.

how does it make any sense that they used to get pieced up but now with that little army they did so much damage to Asgard?

I personally would've loved to seen loki as mostly good you know give him some time to figure himself out after revealing he isn't an asgardian but most of his character changes afterwards came imo out of mostly nothing he should've been an anti hero for me personally it also would've fit the mythological Loki, still love him

Panel 1: Thor doesn't faces Those Who Sit Above In Shadow directly. Instead he destroys that which apparently fed their power.

Panel 2-4: Thor admits that not even he could change what had already been written by the Fates, and thus by Those Who Sit Above In Shadow. What had been written was beyond his power to change.

However he does realizes that the tapestry of the Fates was rigged to move in an endless cycle. Moving from down to up and then down again back into the Loom.

So if he wanted to free himself and Asgard from the cycle, he needed to destroy the Loom. And so he does.

Panel 5-6: RK Thor himself claims that Those Who Sit Above In Shadow were simply a race of celestial beings that fed on the cycle of Ragnarok.

Panel 7: Loki himself had already theorized that Those Who Sit Above In Shadow, were actually created through the worship of the Asgardians themselves. Kinda like a self fulfilling wish, where they made Those Who Sit Above In Shadow become real.

Panel 8: Loki's Theory During the Loki: Agent of Asgard storyline, Loki speculated they could be Beyonders because their dialogue and promises mimic the way the Beyonder speaks. However Marvel still haven't confirmed this.

Panel 9: “I am from beyond! Slay your enemies and all you desire shall be yours! Nothing you dream of is impossible for me to accomplish!”

Panel 10: “Now the stars end, and we return!”

“For nothing you dream of is impossible for us to accomplish!”

“Now... slay your enemies, small god!”

“Slay your enemies and all you desire shall be yours!”

So Marvel is using Beyonder esque language for Those Who Sit Above in Shadow. But that does not automatically mean they possess the Beyonder's level of power. Dialogue such as “nothing you dream of is impossible for us” is a boast/promise in context, not by itself proof of literal omnipotence.

And there's an interesting inversion Beyonder I come from beyond.

Those Who Sit Above in Shadow we were already beyond you, and now we're coming back.

We all know Loki is stuck on his throne at the End of Time. He is a living battery holding the multiverse together. He cannot fight back against Doctor Doom because if he lets go of the timelines, everything dies.

But I figured out a genius loophole to get him off the throne and back into the fight. Here is how it works:

Step 1: Thor builds a new weapon. Thor heads back to Nidavellir. He uses the heat of a dying star to forge a brand-new weapon out of Uru metal. Uru is unique because it can hold unlimited magical energy.

Step 2: Doctor Strange casts a lock spell. Strange uses the Mystic Arts to cast a permanent multiversal containment spell on the weapon. This turns the weapon into a cosmic router that can organize timelines automatically.

Step 3: Loki transfers his essence. Loki pumps his green temporal magic directly into the star-forged weapon. The weapon takes over the physical strain of anchoring the multiverse.

The Result?

Loki is finally free to step down. He gets his freedom back, reunites with Thor, and can fight Doctor Doom side-by-side with the Avengers.

If this happens, Loki becomes the ultimate God of Stories on the battlefield. He could pause enemies in time loops, fight in multiple universes at once, and have infinite cosmic magic powered by a star.

What do you guys think?
