Disagree with the premise of the thread.
First Thor killed Void/Sentry. He killed him after he stopped holding back. Plus its a Bendis comic anyway, you want consistency? Put your hand in a can of jam. Feels good right? lol Cap can't hold back against Void/Sentry, and thats okay, it doesn't take away from him either, but one of the most unsissy things you can do is show restraint, and thats what Thor did in Siege. Does no one actually read all of Thor's old stories? He use to fight dudes in suits, Moongoose and Quicksand as often as he fought Galactus and Celestials. I think fans have devolved into sissies, and not the girl types, girls are bad ass and tough, what you talkin bout thinking otherwise. (thats for jokes by the way, I respect all ya'll opinions)
Thor's like the one dude that Marvel actually lets kick Doctor Doom's ass definitively. Other people win, ah but haha, Door Doom actually planned that... Doom had to have Loki save him last time he fought Thor! Thor got to take down Glory! A dude like Odin with the power of Asgard behind him and added to him. One U-Foe by himself shred the Hulk's skin and flesh off, I guess that makes Hulk a sissy too? Thor actually delivered a massive blow to a dude who absorbed Universes in Chaos War. Thor confirmed he could one shot Ego recently. You have the huge awesome Werewolf guy from Under World movies making the most powerful black superhero around, in Blue Marvel, (he's a pretty good comics writer too) coming out saying his character is stronger than Supes, but weaker than Thor lol (of course it doesn't make it true, this is to an example of how people see the characters) In Spider-Man big time, you have Spider-Man explaining to Anya, that she will always come across people more powerful than her, and thats true of all heroes... well... except Thor. The dude is given plenty of cred. There are more characters now, as in more than 10, so naturally other characters will get slapped on the back as well. Are people fans of characters just for the ego trips they get by getting to tell other fans they love a character that can't lose? I dunno, I can't buy that sort of reasoning.
Characterization? Thor saying shut up? lol Those are things that are more legit to have a gripe with. Thor needing to die, because he does panic and try and kill everything out of insecurity? Now that sounds weak.
