	Thor
		Descended from Norse gods and raised in the hallowed halls of Asgard, Thor nearly precipitated a war by violating a truce with his family's ancient enemy: the Frost Giants of Jotunheim, one of the nine worlds of the Asgardian cosmology.
		Thor is forever torn between his divine home, Asgard, and the troubled lands of his adopted world, Earth.
		Thor soon reclaimed his power, but nearly was killed in battle with the metallic menace known as the Destroyer.

		Meanwhile, Thor engaged Surtur at Asgard's gates, and was overwhelmed by the fire-demon.
		Thor returned to the past and gave his 200 years of memories to his younger self as a warning, before rejoining him with his human side, who then returned the Asgardians to the true Asgard.
		Thor then did the unthinkable, making a deal with Surtur: in return for the reforging of Mjolnir (he felt it appropriate for Surtur to be the one to remake it), he would blast a clear path for him to Asgard.

	Thor (comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Thor (often called The Mighty Thor) is a Marvel Comics superhero, based on the thunder god of Norse mythology.
		Thor often battled his evil adoptive brother Loki, a Marvel character adapted from the Norse god of mischief, and was a member of the superhero group the Avengers.
		Thor is here rather correctly put, as the honest, red bearded muscular, powerful god, with a bit of extra human weaknesses to keep the comic funny.

		Thor knows that to give his people the glory they have earned, he must sever the thread, and thus end the existence of himself, Asgard, and in turn, Those Who Sit Above in Shadow, the Gods of Gods who have manipulated them since the dawn of time.
		Thor rejects the praise, and the greater gods themselves, as he slashes the tapestry, ending all of Asgard's existence.
		Thor's people were denied their ultimate glory for thousands of years: their right to rest in peace, and to have their memories held on high.

		Last year, the new Editor-in-Chief and the new President of Marvel comics decreed that all regular December 2001 titles would be written without any dialogue, captions, or sound effects.
		To complicate matters, there would be no company-wide crossover to explain the absence of writing–the creators had to find a reason to tell a silent story over the course of their regular plotlines (which is probably why the creators were given so much lead time).
		Thor: Godstorm #3: This series has come to an end, and I have to say that it hasn’t left much of an impression on me. The deeper meaning of family tensions ultimately strengthening family ties seems tacked on at the end.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Mighty Thor
		It became hard to reconcile the lame doctor with Thor's eons-old relationships with his fellow deities, so a retcon was concocted by way of explanation: Blake had been Thor all along, sentenced by Odin to inhabit a less magnificent body, his memory erased, until he got over his rather insufferable pride.
		Thor has maintained active participation in the group fairly steadily over the years, and even now, frequently appears as part of it.
		But in the comic books where he was born, he has been a prominent part of the Marvel Universe since its very early days — and retains that position even now.

	Thor (Marvel Comics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Thor (often called The Mighty Thor) is a fictional comic book character in the Marvel Comics universe, based on the god Thor from Norse mythology and throughout his history generally acting in the role of superhero.

	Movie Poop Shoot - COMICS 101
		Thor discovers that he must continually hold the hammer to remain Thor (after 60 seconds without contact, Thor will change back into Blake, although the hammer will remain), and that by striking the hammer against the ground, both he and the hammer return to their original shape.
		After a mighty struggle, Thor finally succeeded in lifting the hammer with his froggy frame, and with a flash of lightning, there stood a fighting mad six-foot-six frog in Thor’s costume, and soon the green slimy god of thunder was off to Asgard to track down his scheming half-brother.
		In recent months, Thor has ascended to the throne of Asgard after the death of his father, and has elected to no longer leave the mortals of Earth to their own devices, but instead to use their power to help humanity, whether it likes it or not.

	The religion of Thor (Marvel Comics)
		Thor was one of 33 characters who were identified as the most religious superheroes in the Marvel Universe in Infinity Crusade (June 1993).
		Thor goes on to admit that neither he nor Odin actually claim any sort of supremacy, but that many members of the church find Thor to be offensive.
		He [Thor] might also worship their ancestors, such as Odin's father, Odin's grandfather, and the Elder of the Universe (I think he was an Elder) called Demiurge, from whose essence all of the Earth's pantheons sprang in the first place, at least according to the original Asgardian origin (not the "alien" one).

		The latest issue of Thor is a story surrounding a character called the "Gardener." God, I can come up with a million jokes for this one.
		Start a rumor about Thor comics supposedly carrying Hepatitis C. Go to Kindergarten classes and teach kids about the evils of Thor, and how Hell's demons demand the souls of all who read Thor comics.
		The only way this show could be possibly appealing to C.A.T. would be if Thor died in the first scene, and the rest of the season is a popular super-hero kicking his corpse.

		The Thor stories are entertaining and educational as well as a good slice of life and fashions in the early 1960's.
		The problem with Thor is that he's simply so powerful, it's not only hard for the reader to empathise with him, but it's hard to create a sense of threat towards him.
		Loki's arrival is crucial in Thor's transformation, not only because it is the beginning of taking the Norse mythology angle seriously (and the Thor comics would provide a scholarly fidelity to the subject), but also because the god of mischief became Thor's major foe.

		Movies of Thor the God of thunder based on the famous Marvel Comics character should be made as a huge very powerful magical and mythical possible trilogy if not more, in the style of Lord Of The Rings crossed with Gladiator.
		he universe of Thor and Asgard, it should be from a different dimension all together some pocket universe, possibly with its origin back on Earth ages ago, and only through magical or mystical powers could anyone cross over there and return.
		In the third and possible final instalment, Thor would find himself torn between being a hero and helping out the people of Earth along with his Avenger friends Captain America, Iron Man and so many others, and sadly having to take his father's place Odin with the responsibility of becoming the leader of Asgard.

		Thor suddenly contends with his cantankerous father Odin, his scheming brother Loki, spectacular slugfests with Hercules (one punch of which appears on the cover) and hilarious well-written exposition, big headed colonizer aliens and gizmos and gadgets that would be right at home in one of Lucas' recent prequel trilogy flicks.

		It's safe to say that we're changing the status quo in Thor, which means we'll be moving several of the characters in new directions.
		I've said before that the proper approach to Thor is a balance between Earth and Asgardian stories.
		And "Egg-Minus" stirs Russian legend, vaudevillian comic strip mayhem, and grimy Berlin realism into a meaty gallinaceous cocktail, as three tangentially related narratives, are woven around the motifs of love, betrayal, decapitation, and poultry.

		Leaping forth from the pages of Journey into Mystery, the adventures of Thor were unlike anything the comic book fan of the 1960s had come to expect.
		And when he wasn't fighting evil, Thor was gone entirely, banished to we-know-not-where so that Dr. Don Blake could resume his human life.
		Thor's look and powers were pretty much set from the start, but the book's theme, supporting players, and villains had a way to go.

	J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI TALKS THOR - NEWSARAMA
		To be honest, I've always preferred that iteration of Thor, with the Dr. Donald Blake persona, than some of the later variations on that theme.
		The American Mid-West has been largely ignored or given short shrift by the comics’ universe, and this is a good chance to bring that world into play, with its values and its heart.
		Great interview, I expect that Thor, Asgard and the asgardians be treated with respect, especially I would like that Amora the Enchantress and also her younger sister Lorelei come back.

		Simonson's Thor resonates deeply in ways he never has before (Or since); I especially enjoyed the scenes between Thor and his Father, Odin.
		If you're like me, and you enjoy mythology and comics, Thor is definatly something you'd want to check into; yet the question arises, what to get, for the Odinson's comics often fall under the weight of mediocrity.
