@asgaard: I'm not saying the whisper wasn't bad writing, all I'm saying is that I think Odin not being able to pick up the hammer was supposed to be a wtf moment and part of the mystery and story. Why wouldn't Odin be able to pick up mjolnir? Well it's a mystery comic right now so it will probably be revealed in time.
@asgaard: I thought in loki agent of asgard they had a hidden agenda with future loki or whatever. Haven't read the title, just from what I saw in scans. Even still without them, it still seems obvious there is more going on than thor simply being unworthy.
I don't get the whole anger about odin not being able to lift mjolnir. I thought it was pretty obvious that he and possibly thor cant lift it because of outside machinations, more than likely the all mothers who have been working behind the scenes lately.
@ms-lola: I thought the same thing about him looking too young (hence the ?) and over at newsarama it says that the front one is mc2 thunderstrike. It also says that the beta ray bill looking thor beside jane is Thrrr dog of thunder.
@thunderingthorfan: It's not ripping off, it's called throwing it back in your face. Jason Aaron has said numerous times he is playing the long game! That he has been setting this up since he first started his run with Thor god of thunder. How has he humiliated him? By having a woman wield mjolnir? By having him lose an arm? What is humiliating about that? Why are you all so easily forgetting the amazingness that is the first volume? So you're saying Aaron forced Hickman's artist to draw him being carried by vision or riding a quinjet? That sounds crazy, you know that right? You think creating an evil version of a hero is creative. I think you just killed your argument. Anyway I'm done with this conversation.
@thunderingthorfan: Oh man, sorry. I didn't know you went into the future and knew what was going to happen. Silly me. Thor bumming a ride from vision and riding on the quinjet happened in books written by, oh wait, Jonathan Hickman, savior of Thor. Yeah, cause everything people say in interviews is gospel. Aaron is playing the long game and always has been. You're just assuming it's going to be utter trash based on ridiculous premises. He has a respect for the character that writers haven't shown in a long time. Yes, this is a different turn of events, but you can't make a rational decision without knowing the reasoning or the whole story. If in the end it turns out to be a bad story than whatever, I'll be out there too voicing my disdain, but if It turns out to be a good or great one, you can take all those issues with thor-whore and stuff it, dude.
