    I see a woman with very unproportional legs and arms of a man, holding a hammer.

    IF she were a man, holding "something" in that manner, what might be implied?

    I'm trying not to spell this out too explicitly, but for those who can't guess:

    Woohoo! I just got an email from the internet. The internet says my post is the 1,000,000,000th showing sarcasm doesn't translate well in text form. Joy.

    Less subtlety next time. Try this:

    Wait, no one opted for Thor holding her hammer in a suggestive manner?

    You lot are all so immature!

    ...

    ...

    +1's for everybody.
  • ...Can we please stop with the boob (and ****) jokes? We're finally getting a tanky female character and everyone's reaction is "hahaha ****." Seriously?? Very mature.

    She-Hulk and Captain Marvel not tanky enough? I know Shulkie sucks and Cap suicides to be useful, but still.

    The **** shaped armor plating on the variant cover is ridiculous and easy to poke fun of. After all, people enjoy sex jokes with both sexes, eg like with the Legolas image earlier in the thread (hidden). The other odd part is that it is female Thor, which can be controversial enough. I don't mind it myself, but others might see this as a lazy way to get free marketing at the expense of the Comics Universe... there's already a thread about it in the forums elsewhere. Personally, I'd rather see a female Captain America, but then heads might really explode.

    Honestly I thought the cover with her holding her hammer was a joke by the artist directed against those sexist individuals who think that Thor can't be a woman.

  • Holy **** they still managed to give her boob armor.

    For those that don't know boob armor would crack the woman's sternum if pretty much any part of the front of the upper torso is hit, which is why it was never ever worn in combat by anyone in the real world.

    If Devil Dino gets over 19,000 health then 4* Thor (she has the power of Thor but shouldn't be named Thor, look at Beta Ray Bill for example) should have over 16,000 health no problem. Watch the devs screw up again and make her health super weak like almost all the other female heroes.

    Edit: the inscription says the wielder will have the power of Thor though. Thor is actually a person. But I get what you are saying CrookedKnight.

    Beta Ray Bill was called Thor (well, Beta Ray Thor) when he held Mjolnir. If you wield the power of Thor through the hammer of Thor, you're called Thor, even though Thor Odinson, who does not have the power of Thor anymore, is still called Thor. Asgard needs nametags.

    Marvel has said explicitly that she is Thor. Not Lady Thor or Thorina, but Thor.
  • Which is weird. I know whoever holds mjolnir has "the power of" thor, but that doesn't make them thor. Plenty of non-thor people have held the hammer before.

    Can we all agree on thora instead of thorina. It's an actual name, feminine with sounding condescending or stupid, and most importantly, shorter.

    I am quite partial to Thorbalina

    Only if we can call Boy Thor "Thoro."

    Her name is Thor. It's not that hard to understand, and to be honest it's not like there aren't crazy name switches and all kinds of similar stuff that hasn't happened like a thousand times before. It's comic books.

    In the game she's 4* Thor. And like the devs said, she correctly cannot be used with 3* Thor or 2* Thor in the same battle. (But you know there will be some simulator thing that will happen at some point...)
  • Looking at what she's doing in that picture I'm not suprised she's a bit thor.

  • She will likely use the same icon_thor.png icon as well. Thor is already pretty short, so not sure why you want to shorten it. Either GT (note: Goddess of Thunder, NOT Girl Thor), or TGT are shorter. They are the same character.

    "4* Thor" works, too.
