LOL still couldnt lift mjolnir...smh

What happened to Thor's arm ?

Now that's how two gods, two brothers in arms, are supposed to go out. Against insurmountable odds without fear of dying.

That's actually a good thing though. This was Thorr's unworthy hammer, not 616 Mjolnir

I'm not sure what to say about this development... if they have completely killed off Thor now means that's one less reason I'll have to buy any Marvel titles.

Relax, Unworthy Thor can be seen on the cover of Aaron's Thor Corps mini series. You can still find him there I imagine. Granted, if I get proven wrong, I'll be even more angry with Marvel for their treatment of Thor than I already am.

yeah, I'm pretty sure that was Thorr's hammer as well and Thor was laughing at the irony of no longer being unworthy at that moment.

Well that's the thing with covers, they sometimes don't accurately reflect what you get on the inside, but we'll have to wait and see what happens with that in a couple of months.

Hey if I get proven wrong, I'll be as annoyed as you are, trust me. I'm already not reading any current Thor or Marvel comics because of their BS management and event structuring currently.

I'll assume you knew he originally lost it confronting Malekith in replacement Thor issue 1, so looks like he already lost the black uru arm in battle at some point slightly prior to what's happening in this scan.

One of the Beyonders Rip off the Uru arm from Thor in this issue ... antithetical i m really busy right now, if the the cover of Thors isn't enough for you, later i will show you a scan from TGOT that implies that Thor will be in Thors Secret Wars.

This would have been a very good end to Thor. But for characters like this it never ends, they will reappear.

That's what I had guessed but not having picked up the issue (or closely following Avengers/New Avengers) didn't want to assume too much.

@kingofkings1: a byonder ripped it off

@asgaard: I think it means that Thor is worthy again and if he is dead then this is Great War for Thor 616 to go out. Though the solicition for avengers world issue 21 says thor and hyperion unleashed so I think that issue will cover this fight between Thor and Hyperion against the Ivory kings.

Thor isn't dead because...

We still don't know what was the whisper and Aaron's remain 2 issues before secret wars will be about Fem Thor identity.

He is in the cover of Thors

In TGOT Old King Thor mentions that he will be a God Cop. (Secret Wars Thors)

He died a warrior's death. Seriously, I think this one was of the best ways to have killed him off if they are planning that. But I don't think they are since of that Thor Corps book for Secret Wars. Still awesome and a worthy death.

@asgaard: the death happens after the main Thor seris.

Haven't been reading new avengers. Is this scan from something happening right now or is it from the future?

This events are after Aaron's current book ends, (issue 8) time runs out...

As said, it was Thorr's unworthy mjolnir he couldn't lift. Taken from the scans posted in this thread http://www.comicvine.com/forums/gen-discussion-1/new-avengers-32-spoilers-the-last-stand-of-and-1656666/#23 in General Discussion.

it never shows them dying for all we know they actually won. or they were taken hostage or teleported away. isn't he still fighting in the next avengers book?

Interesting

@asgaard: i knew it. thanks for posting that

Oh who cares anymore? They ripped the much lauded "black Uru" arm that served what purpose in the 3 issues it existed?! "Oh it can help him punch harder" I heard from so many. The only thing I t helped do, was make him look even weaker again! So STUPID! Just humiliation after humiliation. And now that t---p is on the "Avengers"? That was the last book I was collecting. Good thing Hickman ended his run cuz that's it for me. It was great to have such an epic story from a TRUE writer and not some overrated pathetic hack "writer".

what does Hyperon do other then just stand around

@thunderingthorfan: I have stopped buying the Thor comics and will not get back into them until the fake Thor goes away. Hopefully, they change out Aaron as the author, too.

The art looks awesome in this , love the idea of these two bonding over ale and drinking it all.

I mean he does a awesome job writing this.

Looks like I have to go by this comic.

Money is tight these days so they have to earn the money not just get me to buy a comic because I follow a title.

It has to be a good read.

be an annoying Superman Clone

I like Thor and like reading the books. TGOT was very good...New Thor is ok..

So lets recap...Thor loses ability to lift his hammer because of a whisper, has arm ripped off twice and then they let him lift another hammer of the same power only to have become worthy or unworthy..depending how you look at it..to lift that one and then he fights to his death with Hyperion? He probably doesn't die but just assuming..Writing is fantastic! :p

Oh and new avengers cover was leaked with Lady Thor, Miles Morales, Muslim Marvel and Falcon as Cap..Avengers PC!!

wooow this is good, but jajajajaja poor Thor he is worthy but he need to be unworthy jajaja

@mjolnirson: maybe he should have kicked Hyperion in the nads and tried lifting the the hammer again... "sorry about that brother, just thought I'd check". lol!

@antithetical: jajajajajajaja good one man jajaja xD

lmao , hmmmmm could have just done the trick lol

Well you know he would just be brought back the universe likes Thor and would never let him go. No rest for the needed lol.

Then again it brings back Loki to time after time and Odin and all the rest.

The laws of life and death don't really apply to most comic characters. Least of all to the gods of Marvel, especially Asgardians.

We still have to see FemThor take on malekith and her in the avengers lineup after secret wars so either this won't last, Thor will die, or he will just he worthy but without a hammer. I don't think Jason Aaron would just have Odin make femthor another hammer like he did for BRB, since jason Aaron is so adamant about making Thor look bad. If it isn't Thor's hammer she has then she's not important.

@jayc1324: Odin has been neutered, anyways. He can't pick up the hammer, either. so, it is not like Aaron can have Odin make any more if Odin cannot lift it. Honestly, Aaron has gutted the Thor legacy and history with this fake Thor stunt of his.

@adderworks: no he hasent stop throwing a hissie fit

@z3ro180: YES HE HAS! Stop defending a hack writer to us cuz we are not buying what you're selling Aaron fan/apologist!

Which brings up a point as long as there are insults being tossed about... See, the thing is that we are all fans. Obviously, there is a disagreement among the fan base as to this fake Thor. Now, do I insult somebody for disagreeing with me? Not really needed, is it? It is a disagreement. Aaron did, however. Years from now, people will remember the author using his comic and "carefully" crafted story to insult the fans that disagreed with him by having a fake Thor battle those "evil sexists" for disagreeing with him. The author is having a rather large fit if he uses a comic to mock the fans that do not like his work. And honestly, I suspect that is going be one of the legacies of this fake Thor that I talk about years from this point. I will remember her as the Thor, fake or not, that was a proxy for a writer that cannot handle critics.

@thunderingthorfan: Lol I get the feeling you don't read comics and that you just love to complain

...except for that part about him being right.

@asgaard@frozenedge said:

Exactly! like you said, two brother-in-arms, dying in battle with glory & honor- the very spirit of Valhallan glory!! And the fact that he was no longer able to lift Thorr's hammer proves that he, THOR- was no longer unworthy. Thank you Hickman for capturing the true essence of Thor & giving him redemption, & showing what a warrior's spirit & Valhalla means! It's a shame this couldn't happen in Thor's main book, but Aaron couldn't write a scene like the one Hickman has here AT ALL. Hickman needs to helm a Thor book, STAT!!

The next two issues of New Avengers and Thor are going to be very interesting.

@winter_kills: couldn't agree with you more about Hickman's treatment of Thor here. AWESOME!

@z3ro180: if you mean Aaron written comics.....as soon as he ended GoT I stopped reading anything penned by him. Comics in general..... yeah......my home has a closet full of near 7,000+ cómics But i "dont read comics"..........where YOU get your "feelings" eludes me but it must also be the place where you get your taste in heroes........
