Thor won't die.

If I'm wrong, and he does indeed die, his death will be rendered meaningless when Marvel brings him back in 6 months to a year.

"The World will be changed forever!...and by 'world' of course we mean 'Thor's costume'"

Thor's one of the few characters it makes sense to kill.  Since nobody stays dead, kill a god, at least you're admitting he's coming back.

I feel sorry for Thor, it's like every time his sales slump even a bit, they kill the dude. It's probably easy since he's a god, so resurrecting him is a simple task. And with Cap back in full form, the Marvel universe needs someone to mourn I guess. If he dies, I give it a year tops. Just in time for the next Thor movie. Or maybe he'll be back for The Avengers flick.

My prediction is if Thor is the one to defeat the Serpent, then he will become more than just a Thunder God... perhaps Odin will pass on the allfather status to him and go into "retirement" or something similar, and let Thor keep Asgard on Earth if he so desires, or something like that.  Fraction needs to do something to redeem the relationship between Thor and Odin anyway....

look at the cover of fear itself 7 at the top of the article. the bottom of it shows an armored guy fighting the serpent. Thor fighting the serpent who will probably transform into an actual serpent, and that explains the chestplate that odin gives him. the previous covers in fear itself have been way too revealing for that to not be the case.

taskmaster being a hero should be ace!

considering i saw a teaser of thor's newest comic STILL being alive im sure he'll be ok lol

I'm hoping that Thor would live on, but not necessarily as the God of Thunder. Just don't kill him off, please

Not going to die, just going to step out of the position he's been in for most of his time in comics and into another,
sort of the right move given him, Odin and Asgard are now at major odds. It made me cringe at first thinking about that,
but really it makes me sense to me that he wouldn't be following tradition anymore and he would be his own person.
Hopefully anyways that will lead to bigger challenges for him and original new adventures, though I guess we'll have to
wait and see on that one.

When did the Red-Hulk come back?

am I the only one who sees the giant snake? midgard serpent

I don't like Marvel, but I respect Captain America and I will say this.  I have enjoyed his courage ever since reading the panels within the Infinity Gauntlet of him standing up to Thanos in the face of certain death.

Taskmaster. Hell yeah!

Long live Thor

Thor will die. And not just because we're getting the Celtic Thundergod Tanarus (also called  Taranis), but because that's how it plays out in the Prose Edda, and Marvel has taken some liberties with it, but that seems to be the inspiration for this storyline.   
 
Jörmungandr, the World Serpent arose out of the sea and poisoned the sky. Thor will kill him, walk 9 paces and fall down dead having been poisoned by the serpent. It won't be a permanent death, because the serpent isn't exactly the same as in the myth (it's not Loki's son, for one thing, he isn't a literal serpent encircling the world and eating his own tail for another). 
 
I'm guessing the "poison" will be either that a corruption, like Mjolnir is corrupted by the Serpent's hammers and Thor is prevented from accessing his powers, without being turned into one of the Worthy; or just his mind will be "poisoned" with fear, rendering him unable to act as a hero. Of course being comics, by this time next year, or whenever the Avengers movie comes out, we will be talking about the Return of Thor.

Thor's not dying people, lol he just won't.  I am kinda intrigued by Steve telling off Odin though, haha! As for Taskmaster, now that is great :)

thats like killing something you dont own. thor wasnt invented by marvel.

Thor is alive, hes a god! :P..And Taskmater with avengers? Sweet!

Lol at Captain America shooing Odin off... Odin would be like B!*$H you be pointing any finger at me and I will erase you from existence... not o dam this ridiculousness guy in a blue suit means business 

I don't think anyone will even care if Thor dies again.  It already happened this decade and with Avengers movie coming out, as well as two Thor books, I think Thor's "death" will be really superficial.
STOP CARING ABOUT SILLY GIMMICKS COMICVINE!!!

You can tell in the battle scars image its not Osborn due to him lacking his trademark brill-pad hair.

thor probably loses his god powers

i would be more happy if he did die

He'd better not die, it'd be WAY too soon.

Wow Odin is actually taking care of an injured Thor in a seemingly tender Father Son moment and giving his son a piece of body armor to try on? Been a while since I've seen Odin be that nice to be honest.

I don't think any of the Avengers are dying any time soon with all the hype revolving around their big movie. But yeah it looks like Thor's getting depowered and this Tanarus fellow is just a substitute. Fingers crossed for mortal Thor and Hercules kicking ass together in Brooklyn

I think Thor will be pissed off at Odin for not helping earth and will leave asgard in rage.

Its still annoying me that it looks like every one is proper struggling to carry Thor.

Look's like he's got quite the suit of armour there, I think the rumours of him not being the God of Thunder are more liable than him dying.

Thor probably will not die, but he may be depowered or something for awhile, I mean Herc has been epic awesomeness so maybe Thor wants to jump on that bandwagon XD

We all know Thor isn't dying...look at the solicits for later in the year...he's merely not the god of thunder anymore.

Bucky....

steve yells at Odin, mans got some guts there
