Thor Odinson, God of Thunder Appreciation 2022

[Frontier]

Agreed.

That panel was totally in unnecessary. I guess Aaron wanted to depict Jane as “flawed” but her staring at Mjolnir like an addiction wasn’t a good look,

That's been kind of one of my big problems with Jane in general. That she's depicted as being so altruistic and perfect with virtually no, real, flaws.

Thor he can make a hammer-obsessed, incapable, and dumb blonde viking but Jane's only real flaw is...she wants to be a hero all the time, even at the cost of her health. Or she's obsessed with Mjolnir. Then again, so is Thor.

I don't get the sense she's written much differently in the Valkyrie book.

Maybe the edit joke posted immediately before.

Lol.

And for another thing that might have been out there, I wouldn't casually reference Amber Heard/Johnny Deep's trial in trivial discussion, considering it's eclipsed Fembusters as the biggest misogyny lightning rod online.

That whole situation showed how incredibly stupid people are, considering we had misogynistic people trying to use it as an example that women are basically evil, and then on the other side we also got the very silly situation where other people are saying you always believe women, even when they're blatantly lying.

No offense to the artist... but did they need to make Jane look like a literal drug addict starring at a needle in that scene... Or is this Jason Aarons particular direction?

There are so many details me and a friend kept laughing at that last page man, it's unintentionally hilarious.

Jane's glassy eyes, her biting her lip, the narration box, her touching her neck and hair which makes it look like she's scratching it like the stereotypical junkie.

Same friend pointed out that Thor crossing his arm can kinda look like it's Jane's arm on his bicep, pushing him away to get a better look at Mjolnir.

Like holly hell dude just make her another god of thunder, give her another hammer if you are that desperate over it, stop having her salivate over Mljonir like a fat cop over donuts, ffs.

Ah yeah, she could get a Beta Ray Bill situation, though that could make him redundant and show up less.

On the other hand, I wonder if that would sate her, could always get a situation where she was addicted to the Mjolnir, not some copy .

That's been kind of one of my big problems with Jane in general. That she's depicted as being so altruistic and perfect with virtually no, real, flaws.

Reminds me that this is a problem people may have with characters like Superman or Captain America, so doing that non-ironically with Jane is questionable.

Thor he can make a hammer-obsessed, incapable, and dumb blonde viking but Jane's only real flaw is...she wants to be a hero all the time, even at the cost of her health. Or she's obsessed with Mjolnir. Then again, so is Thor.

Maybe Uru is actually some Asgardian drug, anyone using Mjolnir gets addicted to it .

It could kinda fit with Aaron's themes of "Gods suck" .

That one's written by Al Ewing right?

Have you seen that viral tweet with the caption of Christian Bale (showing a picture of normal Bale) then beside it was Gorr's caption was as Atheist Bale?
Then ppl photoshopped and substituted the Christian pic with every other religion versus Gorr's Atheist Bale. It was hilarious.

I think he only worked on the first five issues.

[Wildling]

Lol.

What makes you laugh?

I wasn't aware of that, sounds funny.

I did find this semi-related picture when searching for it:



Seems that what you mentioned is a case of a resurrected meme too, there were variations with the puns before of Bale's name before.

Huh, and I assume Aaron took over for the rest, 'cause Ewing has been busy with X-Men related stuff lately.

What makes you laugh?

How a dumb edit made to mock Jane's Mjolnir addiction can be seen as misogynistic.

[Wildling]

Dumb edits really make you laugh?

This one has me scratching my head, I remember hearing that an alien from another planet can't become a green lanter for that planet, or at least, that's the excuse I remember hearing why Supes isn't Earth's GL...

Everyone wielding Mjolnir like i'ts nothing .

Mommy says it's my turn to lift Mjolnir .

Exactly. It's beyond overdone, overused and overhyped.
I think Marvel just don't care enough about the character in that respect anymore.

Talking of respect. This Thor vs Hulk crossover is just basically a Hulk crossover with Thor as a guest-star,
especially the last two issues. I wonder how Thor will be portrayed in his Hulk form. It'll probably be like
the Hulked-Out-Heroes series some years ago.
One last thing, why is it whenever Marvel do covers of Hulk vs Thor Hulk is always shown as standing over a beaten Thor or
always looking like he has the upper hand in a fight?

This feels like an episode of Avengers Assemble.
