Thor Odinson is the All-father of Asgard /God of Thunder, offspring of All-Father Odin & Elder-Goddess Gaea. Combining the powers of both realms makes him an elder-god hybrid and a being of no perceivable limits. Armed with his enchanted Uru hammer Mjolnir which helps him to channel his godly energies. The mightiest and the most beloved warrior in all of Asgard, a staunch ally for good and one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse/omniverse. Thor is also a founding member of the Avengers.
I was reading Avengers Disassembled Ragnarok. Anyway in the comic Thor rips out both of his eyes to get more power. So my quetion is did thor ever get his eyes back?
"Ok now that I know Thor got his eyes back. How did he get them back? "
I would have to guess that when dealing with things in the realm of Gods, not everything should be seen in such a literal interpretation. Granted, the act of ripping out his eyes was physical in nature and appeared to cause him pain, but it was also symbolic in nature as well. Another explanation could simply be that Mjolnir has shown the power to heal in the past so the Odin force most likely could as well.
Although most likely it came about with the rebirth. Thor had severed the ties of fate and brought about Ragnarok as well as breaking the cycle. He was detroyed and reborn. He entered the sleep of Gods and then returned from the void. I can only assume that his true form was restored during the same process that returned him from the Odin Sleep.
Did anyone read that Marvel Knights Spidey story where the Owl had this psycho surgeon guy cut out one of Electro's eyes and one of Vulture's? Somehow they seem to have got their eyes back.
" My word, Thor looks like a pre-pubescent girl. He's even standing like one. JRJr sucks so much. "
Agreed. To much girlification going on in comics. "
As far as Odin's eyes ... if it is a result of the destruction and rebirth from the cycle of the most recent "end of days" in Ragnarok, then this is something that Odin and Thor didn't share. Thor challenged and destroyed "Those Who Sit Above In Shadow" and severed the ties of fate at Ygdrassil. Thor was the first to ever break this cycle. In doing so, Thor had surpassed every King of Asgard that had come before him. So it could be said that Thor's eyes returned because of this "new dawn" that Thor had envisioned and recreated that had never been before. Odin had never achieved or witnessed this in the past. This is a great distinction that separates the two ... as well as the only one I can think of that would explain it. Of course this is just my theory on it ... unless it was literally explained some other way in the comics that I missed.
I also agree ... that Thor picture posted up top has Thor looking a bit too femme. It appears the artist used influence from Japanese Manga style ... guess that would explain it if that's the case.

This is all rampant speculation on your part. They simply did not want Thor to be eye-less is all. The act of plucking out your eyes is meant to be a permanent payment for the powers bestowed.
Thor was drawn effeminate because the artist wanted him to look effeminate. It is a distrurbing trend in comics and has been for some time with certain artists.

Yeah ... ? ... ummm ... if you actually read what I wrote, I explained pretty clearly that this was a theory of mine that could be a reasonable explanation for it ... but that it was never actually given a clear answer in the comics as far as I know. So repeating that it was speculation on my part is kind of unecessary ...
