Allow me to explain.... I love the idea, I REALLY like the look, it's all great but... I think it's going to end badly for Jane and end up with a lot of disappointed people who actually DO like this.
I know, I know, it's been out a while by now, but I feel it's time to address this because it HAS been out a while. Eventually Thor's gonna come back and get Mjolnir, it's a given, but? Where does that leave Jane? I honestly think Marvel needs to try and work a way to let her continue being a superhero because? I REALLY like this set up and wish to see it continue. A lot of people have said it's making that old What If comic canon.
In that comic? Jane found Mjolnir, which Odin had sent to Earth to punish Thor and teach him humility by taking away his weapon instead of sending Thor HIMSELF to Earth. Jane found it and ended up with all of Thor's powers, calling herself Thordis after a girl she met in nursing school from Norway. This is actually a good call for a couple of reasons. Thordis can be translated as "Thor's goddess" or more literally as "Thunder goddess" as Thor is Old Norse for thunder. Another is that it ties her to the Norse pantheon without actually making her a full fledged goddess or member of them.
I really think this needs to be kept around and let Jane still keep the limelight since? I honestly love the dynamic since it goes back to the OLD days of Thor, back when they actually paid attention to the idea that a mortal had the power of Thor and is very Captain Marvel-esque(DC's Captain Marvel that is). A mortal given the powers of a god.
Just me but? I really would like to see this stay in SOME form for a LONG time because there's nothing wrong with expanding the Thor Family outside of Thor, Beta Ray Bill, and occasionally Loki, and now Angela.
