Mjolnir Gains Infinite Power Thanks to Apex
A more powerful Mjolnir sound like an nonsubjective advantage for Thor , but it does n’t quite work that way . Mjolnir explodes with powerwhen Otherone touch it , then proceed to begin punching through base after floor in the edifice they ’re in . The power upgrade makes the hammer ’s captivation strong and more real , making it so that even inanimate object fail the ' desirable ' trial run . Thankfully , Thor is able to hold floor " worthy " to stop its fall , but when he anticipate Mjolnir back to his hand , it responds with such force that it breaks his carpus . Worst of all , Thor ca n’t even assault the Champion at once , as the clashing of two infinite powers would put himself and everyone else on the major planet at peril .
Thor finally fancy out that he can only handle such huge power by working small , creating a single drop of water that - when it gain Otherone - becomes a huge splash that wakes him up . Thor then manipulates Otherone ’s intellect - based force siphoning to de - index the Champion.
pit against a cosmic horror , Thor ’s only selection is to split all aspects of himself into their own Thors , depict the Avengers quite useless .
This smart , ' logic puzzle ' usance of his god power is characteristic of Thor ’s maneuver in hisImmortal Thorera . Having ascended to the position of All - Father , Thor now hasthe world - interpolate might of Odin . His biggest challenge is no longer being potent enough to smite his enemies , but finding ways to harness theoretically infinite index in utile , balanced ways .
Now renamed the ' Thor Force , ' the great power can vary realism on massive floor , but it quickly exhaust Thor , forcing him to enter into a mysterious sleep when he ’s expend enough of it .

The Thor Force Means He Can Do Anything… If He Figures Out How
Immortal Thorspent its other issues explore the nature of Thor ’s new great power and its close bond to narrative , mythic thinking . Immortal Thor # 2showedhow Odin gained his power , sacrificing his eye not for magical might but for knowledge . This noesis allowed Odin to channel the ' Odin Force ' - the ultimate ability of creation that can do anything . Now renamed the ' Thor Force , ' the baron can interpolate reality on monumental grade , but it rapidly use up Thor , forcing him to enter into a mystical rest when he ’s expended enough of it . Thor has had to learn to defend smart in rules of order to achieve his goal without overstrain and becoming vulnerable .
In Immortal Thor # 10 , the Odinson see a raw , god - spirit level ability that is right smart too disturbing for both the cartoon strip and the MCU .
Ewing uses the same logic as Thor seek to control an infinitely powerful Mjolnir . The figure of Thor ’s malleus breaking his wrist might be funny , but it ’s the perfect metaphor for the God of Thunder ’s new status quo . As All - Father , Thor can now doanything , but that ’s not advisable in a universe where all his actions have consequences . or else , Thor now has to picture out the accurate right answer to every problem- his power to handle innumerous office trust on having the wiseness to nail down down the precise right path .
In the past , Thor explained that Mjolnir was specify for"the steer of Asgard ’s spear”- a hoagy who faces down wickedness from across the Ten Realms .
Thor’s ‘Worthy’ Enchantment Used to Be Defined by Odin
The Hammer Was Meant for ‘The Tip of Asgard’s Spear,’ Not Just a True Hero
For much of Thor ’s beingness in Marvel traditional knowledge , it ’s been undecipherable what being ' worthy ' really entail . Thor is a deeply moral but egotistical warrior , often making misunderstanding without losing the ability to lift the cock . At the same prison term , almost none of Earth ’s heroeshave been able-bodied to annul Mjolnir , despite gift their all to carry through innocent and stand against evilness . Meanwhile , when Nick Fury sow in dubiousness in Thor ’s heart about whether gods were good for world , Thor immediately became ugly , despite rest heroic .
One of the best explanations come inThor # 15 ( Donny Cates and Michele Bandini ) , whenThor explained that Mjolnir was intended for"the tip of Asgard ’s spear"- a hero who faces down evilness from across the Ten Realms . That explained why other heroes might not meet the ' worthy ' threshold - their area of operation just was n’t large enough . However , whatever ' worthy ' used to mean , now it mean something different .
After inheriting Odin ’s All - Power , Marvel fans had speculated Thor was ultimately herculean enough to beat Superman . Now , they get an official answer .
In its new , reforged shape , Thor is the out-and-out master of what " worthy " means in relation to Mjolnir ’s fascination .
Thor’s Enchantment Has Changed Forever
As All-Father, Thor Decides Who and What Are Worthy
In 2023 ’s Marvel’sThor Annual # 1,Thor reforged Mjolnir after it was shatteredinto pieces . He did this using his own top executive as All - Father , effectively revive the hammer anew as a different entity to the version Odin created . Previously , worthiness was settle by Odin ’s enchantment , which had warped and evolved over millennia thanks to the living cosmic storm contained within the hammer . However , the hammer is now Thor ’s foundation , and its enthrallment follows his judgment , not Odin ’s .
Thor designate in his struggle against the Champion that he can now ' hold ' anything he wants as suitable and the hammer ’s enchantment will obey . This is n’t alone due to Otherone ’s influence - inImmortal Thor # 5,Thor pulled the same trickwith the malign god Toranos . Toranos is a more ancient , more absolute version of the mythical archetype that Thor descended from , and has a purer reading of his powerfulness . Thor could n’t win on might alone , so he admit Toranos to exact the hammer , then declared the elder god ' worthy . '
Thor ’s family has no shortage of heavy hitters , but one root of his might be the most powerful of all the Gods , even though he ’s barely appear .
In that case , Thor flipped the usual direction the enchantment works -rather than losing control of Mjolnir , Toranos was border to the principle that make someone ' worthy ' in Thor ’s middle . Suddenly , Toranos was forced to entertain back and to reckon with his many malign deeds , eventually give up because he could n’t reconcile his nefarious past with his new ' worthy ' fear . In its raw , recast form , Thor is the downright lord of what " worthy " means in relation to Mjolnir ’s enchantment . He ’s able to hold others desirable , so far both in the form of forcing Mjolnir to admit themandforcing them to live up to the mantelpiece as long as they ’re holding it .
While heroes like Captain Marvel or the Human Torch have put abilities and can try out by test their limits , Thor is a conceptual being - he is inherently link to magic , and the ' rules ' that delineate him can be bent and break off if he approaches them in the correct way .
Thor’s Powers Are Now All About His Godly Wisdom
It’s a New Era for the God of Thunder
Immortal Thorhas placed a lot of emphasis onthe mythical nature of Thor ’s power and very being- as a god , he is touch base to conceptual thought process and linguistic process in a mode that makes his king far more versatile and variable quantity . While hero like Captain Marvel or the Human Torch have set ability and can experiment by testing their limits , Thor is a conceptual being - he is inherently linked to magic , and the ' rules ' that set him can be dead set and broken if he approaches them in the correct way . This is how Marvel has jolly much always treated Loki , and now Thor ’s promotion to All - Father is force him to embrace the complexity that has long limit his sib .
As he just bear witness while dealing with the ludicrously overpowered Mjolnir , Thor is now in control of the pounding ’s ' suitable ' enchantment , and the mythologic nature of his godly wisdom means that he can do almost anything as long as he does it the right way . As Marvel ’s All - Father , Thor ’s baron is still restrict by his wisdom in give it , but that ’s theonlylimit he has leave .
