Thor

Product Information

Ascended Extra: In the original myths, there's almost no mention of Laufey other than to mention that she's Loki's mother. To flesh Loki out as a character, this adaptation makes her a him, the King of the Frost Giants who was killed by Odin. Time Master: Thor sacrificed most of Mjölnir's time manipulation powers ( Time Travel, time reversal, etc) in Thor #282, but he retained the ability to create localized time freezes. These freezes are mostly used for protection, because they prevent supers from using their powers. Thor used one to prevent Hela from taking Odin's soul in Thor #198-199. Donald M.

To Red Hulk, after a little "misunderstanding" note Later Thor told Bruce it wasn't a misunderstanding at all; he just really wanted to lay into Red Hulk: "I am Thor Odinson of the Vikings, Giant. I am not the god of reason and understanding. I am the god of THUNDER AND LIGHTNING!" Beyond the Impossible: Nothing can stop the Juggernaut once he begins moving in one direction, right? WRONG! ◊ Justified, as Juggernaut is empowered by a god. Remember what Thor is. Which is Hilarious in Hindsight, as Hel (Hela in some versions of the myth, and the character uses both names in the comic) is his own daughter, kinda (explanations vary on if she's the daughter of Loki of a previous cycle, the current Loki some time before the present-day adventures, or even someone Loki artificially created). Sharing a Body: Thor and Donald Blake, after Thor's resurrection seem to be doing this, with Thor more in control after Donald Blake calls for Mjölnir with his cane, and Don more in control in their mortal form. Whether or not they are the same person with different personas, or two separate people is when things begin to get hazy. They mostly converse in an odd spiritual void or an alternate version of where they currently are.

He once reneged on a promise to help Tyr overthrow Asgard, because the reason he'd set the plot against Odin into motion was that he thought Odin had dishonored Frigga. When he realized he'd been wrong about that, he switched sides. Some Kind of Force Field: Mostly during Thor's space travels. He usually tries to smash through the barrier. Twisting the Prophecy: For one storyline Odin set up stage-dressing Ragnarok to save Asgard from its prophesied destruction. Happily Adopted: Subverted. Odin adopted Loki out of obligation and guilt. Ironically he creates his own destruction by doing so. Always Chaotic Evil: Played Straight with the Dark Elves and Fire Demons for most of Thor's publication history, but subverted in recent years. The Dark Elf culture is built on treachery and violence. The Fire Demons are usually depicted as wanting to kill everything that isn't them. Both are responsible for numerous wars of aggression against the other realms, are willing to commit any atrocity imaginable and no regret about any of it. However, it's repeatedly demonstrated that not all Dark Elves are evil — Queen Alfyse is depicted as a Reasonable Authority Figure, Kurse is depicted as more victim than villain and becomes the protector of Asgard's children, and Lady Wazira is straight up heroic. Additionally, in recent years, it's been hinted that the Fire Demons aren't exclusively evil, with insights into Muspelheim indicating that the ordinary civilians are, more or less, like every other race in the multiverse — though their soldiers are still utterly monstrous (there's also the fact that these are demons of fire — it is in fire's nature to burn and destroy).

There was Gorr The God Butcher, whom Thor has had a deep seeded strain of horrid memories of during his youth. Especially onto old age when the former spent 900 years in the future enslaving and massacring gods to build a deicidal WMD for murdering them all. Let's You and Him Fight: Justice Peace and Thor in Thor #371. This one has consequences: the fight delays Justice Peace's pursuit of the serial killer Zaniac, who kills several more people before they catch up with him. Put on a Bus to Hell: How did Marvel take Thor out of the picture when they decided that they wanted to replace him with Jane Foster? By having him become unworthy and unable to lift his hammer, then lose his powers and his left arm, then' try to reclaim his hammer only to discover that there's someone else wielding it, having to relinquish his signature weapon and his name as a result. Hanging Up on the Grim Reaper: In one comic, Hela comes to take Thor for an unspecified reason but Odin steps in and kills her. Talk about family issues.

Undead Child: There's a particularly horrifying one during the "Latverian Prometheus" arc — a dismembered, bloody, visibly decaying zombie-cyborg Frankensteinian monster child. (The same writer's later run on Young Avengers features the ghostly Kid Loki; Kieron Gillen seems to like this trope in general.) The All Mother seem pretty involved in recent comics, and have Loki doing various jobs for them as well. Large Ham: During Thor's '60s run, pretty much everybody who isn't an average guy. And even then... I Have Many Names: Unlike most other characters from the various classic, theological, original, or alien pantheons, it's revealed that the Earth Mother (the deity that embodies the planet Earth, its biosphere, and all planetary nature) is the same entity under various identities. Her physical bodies, avatars, and manifestations may be different in each form, but she is the same entity nonetheless. This is partly explained that she has no solid, permanent form. Her name, appearance, mood, etc. all depend upon the beholder, even if they're other gods. Lightning: Thor can summon lightning from the sky, channel it through Mjölnir, or even project it from his hands. According to Thor #421, the God of Thunder can amplify the power of lightning 10,000 fold. Thor can also use lightning to create electromagnetic pulses capable of disabling Iron Man's armor.

New Powers as the Plot Demands: By today's standards, a lot of Thor's early Stan Lee-scribed appearances have the thunder god doing this when he comes up with everything from creating wind storms by blowing to using ventriloquism. Cain and Abel: Thor and Loki, though in the case it's Loki, the younger of the two, who is the villain. When Desak, the God-Slayer who had destroyed several pantheons throughout the universe, came upon Asgard, the Asgardian troops were practically shaking in their boots, and, as it turns out, rightly so. A True Hero: This trope is one of the main theses of Thor as a character: due to an enchantment placed on his hammer by his father, if he stops being "worthy" he will lose the ability to use the hammer and most of his powers. This premise is intricately deconstructed later, though: by whose standards must he be "worthy"? Could there be someone else even more worthy? And can he be a hero even if he fails to meet such criteria? Godiva Hair: In Thor 485, Lorelei, younger sister of The Enchantress, seduces magically Ben Grimm (like part of a plan) using a vision of her naked with just her long red hair to cover.When Loki became a menace and deceived his brother Thor on Earth, Thor saw through his lies and banded together with Iron Man, the Hulk, Ant-Man, and Wasp to found the Avengers. Alongside the Avengers, Thor is a leader, master hand-to-hand combatant, and talented swordsman. Worthy Warrior and Weaponry Played again multiple times before Kid Loki made his debut, Loki often created his own problems by accident. E.I. The Avengers assembling for the first time to fight him. And his biggest one is the creation of Desak after he imprisoned his maker to power The Destroyer. Loki, an Asgardian menace, forever seeks to sow chaos out of his jealousy towards his adopted brother Thor. Whether he is trying to steal the Golden Apples of Idunn or posing as Odin, he's rarely an ally.

Throughout his youth, Thor tested his limits on dangerous missions and became worthy of the Uru hammer Mjolnir, using it to save Sif from the Death Goddess Hela. While the hammer wields destructive powers, it also has the power to build and Thor also uses it to consecrate treaties and bless weddings. Animal-Themed Superbeing: The High Evolutionary was fond of making these due to his studies in genetics. One of the more famous being the Mongoose who was so fast, Thor (Thunderstrike version) had to call in Spider-Man for help. Humans Are Special: Thor certainly thinks so. Few other gods in the Marvel Universe (and there are many) are as willing to stand up for and protect humanity as he is, and his best friends and teammates are just humans with exceptional abilities and dedication to good. His best friend amongst humans is Captain America, if that tells you anything.Thor himself is one. He was originally a side character in Journey into Mystery, but he became so popular that the series was rewritten to be about him.
