Thor is now a woman As for me,t I have mixed feelings abt this. But I would have prefrered they acted it that when Odin-all father, threw the hammer, Thor was no longer worthy, then a woman raised d hammer n became thor. Makes more sense 2 Likes |

runzlord:dude do yourself a favour and read up Norse mythology so you can update your knowledge. Thor doesn't begin and end with marvel comics. It's like movie producers making Achilles female. Start by searching the "meaning of Thursday" 1 Like |

I see that liberals are really stepping up on achieving their desires to rid the world of conservatives. First openly gay and atheist characters in their comics and now the feminists have PROBABLY gotten to 'em. |

Oahray: dude do yourself a favour and read up Norse mythology so you can update your knowledge. Thor doesn't begin and end with marvel comics. It's like movie producers making Achilles female. The public's interest here is on Thor the marvel character not the Norse mythology. Marvel can do whatever they wish with their characters, they need not adhere to the mythological storyline. 2 Likes |

Oahray: well that's not the reason the idea is silly. Thor is not original to Marvel comics. They built their character around the Thor son of Odin, of Norse mythology. Making him female now just to patronise the feminists, is just silly.So let the Norsk fight their own battles |

Bawss1:Thor the marvel character exists because there is a mythological Thor. If you are going to be original, be original. But if you are going to adapt a storyline, stay true to the basic building blocks. Comic is a flowing line, the characters' present has to proceed from the past. Characters are even treated like real people. When you make sudden senseless changes, you lose that effect on your fans. What of the past marvel comics on a male Thor and his Asgard people? They need not adhere to that too? 1 Like |

Re: Thor Will Now Officially Be a Woman in Marvel Comics by moneyallowed(m): 4:48pm On Jul 19, 2014 |
it'll be funny referring to a woman as "Thor Odinson". That aside tho, I don't see what all the fuss is about. Marvel are obviously exploring how to make the best use of their comic properties; they're also making Captain America black - Sam Wilson "Falcon" takes the mantle. Whether or not this move backfires I don't see it doing any lasting damage. Thor'll definitely be back with balls by 2018 @ least. |

Oahray: Thor the marvel character exists because there is a mythological Thor. If you are going to be original, be original. But if you are going to adapt a storyline, stay true to the basic building blocks. Yup, the writers are under no compulsion to depict their characters in accordance with the myths. Besides this change is understandable given the context (as revealed so far). Thor is said to have committed a grave mistake and deemed unworthy of weilding Mjolnir. The woman who takes over does so because she is worthy of the hammer... Thor the son of Odin still exists but he is without Mjolnir. Personally I'm not thrilled with this change but thats for totally different reasons than expressed on this thread. I believe that all portrayals of the female sex, even in the arts, should be in line with their delicateness. A woman weilding a hammer as a weapon... But that's a discussion for another day. |

Bullshit srew marvel......and they wonder why I like dc characters |

Seems people aren't bothered much with Steve Rogers giving up the Captain America mantle - or should I say shield - to his ally Sam Wilson AKA the Falcon. |

Csami: My favorite marvel character will soon become a woman, GREAT!no one seems to relate to Hulk?? nigga puhleese! check out Planet Hulk sometime.....there's Red, blue etc & the fans sezly love it. The campaign for the next Hulk movie to be a Planet Hulk movie gained so much ground until Ruffalo pissed on the idea ( such a douche) |
Re: Thor Will Now Officially Be a Woman in Marvel Comics by kevoh(m): 5:02pm On Jul 19, 2014 |
Thor actually had a daughter called Toruun who continued his Legacy. The older Avengers except Iron man and Hulk were actually killed by a super villain called Ultron. It was after this that the children of these Avengers , including Toruun, were being raised and mentored in secret on an Island by Tony Stark (Iron Man). So the depiction of a female wielding that hammer is not far fetched. 2 Likes |

YahuZa!!!!! Cute and deadly!!! georgesylva: In news that will probably baffle comic book fans and normal people alike, it was revealed that Thor (yes, the Mighty Thor) is no longer worthy of his title and will be replaced by a woman in an upcoming comic storyline.The h*ll she is! YeaYeaNot |
