So, Mjolnir her/him/itself is -apparently- the God of Hammers. Unless something seriously important is revealed or changes as the story goes (and I don't think it will), this is a new level of stupidity imo.

Retcon after retcon after retcon after retcon ad nauseam for almost 20 years now. Pffff!

From enchanted hammer to Mother Storm to God of Hammers..all of that in just a few years.
Gotta admit, didn't see this one coming at all.
In a way, it kind of makes sense when you think about it. If there was a God of Hammers, it would have to be Mjolnir right? I mean it/he/she is the hammer of hammers...

Edit: Mjolnir wielding Mjolnir is a bit...weird...

Also I believe that's the Motherstorm Holding Mjolnir! Together they are the God of Hammers...
Probably why The Phoenix hates it as she's Thor's mother and Probably predicted this coming to pass....

So Odin never had it created?

So was it created by Odin then, or enchanted by him at all?

Or did he find it, and forced it to become like his slave as weapon for Thor?

If you Read the comic Etrie is still the creator of it!
Odin trapped the Motherstorm within and that's obviously who is holding the hammer at the end of the issue!
Calling herself the god of Hammers!

The Motherstorm is exactly what then?

Well, at the very least - and it's just one panel so, who knows - Mjolnir is sentient itself and if that's the figure of the Motherstorm, it most likely has taken over as he/she/it goes by the name of Mjolnir.
Nonetheless, it's so stupid to re-re-retcon things all the time. MU has long lost any sense of continuity, but they always find some way to make it even worse.

A Sentient cosmic MotherStorm...you can look it a up bro.

Etrie Created Mjolnir! And Odin Enchanted it and trapped the MotherStorm within it!

Not everybody read's a lot of comics every week. That is one of the reason's these board's exist. We can keep up and maybe even buy some that sound interesting.

The Mother Storm actually makes sense, though most of us whiffed, when you think about recent Thor history.
it is just that continuity is rare and I sometimes do not see it through the dread. Speaking just for myself Cates is doing well on Thor except when he goes up against one of his other projects. Kind of worries me about this upcoming Hulk vs. Thor arc. We remember what happened in the last Hulk vs. animated movie. I am delighted Yost does not seem to have anything Thor related lately-or is he still doing work on TL&T? Same with Jeph Loeb. I kind of thought it might be Etrie powered by the mother storm. That would have been a GoH in the truest fashion. I know he died last issue but the spotlight on him just made me wonder. Plus no fair calling the mother storm a god when it is should be goddess, I am not positive it is her though it seems apparent. What is Storm doing these days?

In Jason Aaron's Mighty Thor #11, Mjolnir manifests and speaks to Jane Foster. It says it took an enormous amount of power to speak to her like that, and it probably would take a century of rest before it could do so again. Mjolnir did it to protect her civilian identity.

I'm guessing Cates is building off this thread from Aaron.

That you don't read the books at all.

Hate to be pedantic but shouldn't it be the GODDESS of Hammers, given its the MOTHER-Storm. then again maybe the hammer is gender fl-uru-id.







Its all about short term sales spikes orchestrated via controversial continuity u-turns. Its called deconstruction. They'll change everything you love about a character but expect you to still buy it out of brand loyalty and fandom.

I'm really sorry but like I said a long time ago, I'm not going to waste my time and money on these absurd comics.

Cates keeps pulling the rope until he is tired with the nonsense Aaron brought in, it's not worth all this at all.

The origin of the Hammer for me is still the one they established decades ago and not this madness that they have been trying to sell us for a few years.

If in the future a decent author sweeps away everything that Fraction introduced, Aaron and Cates might buy a comic of my favorite character again.

I'm sorry but Marvel continuity is utterly broken and these are totally fair questions in the Cates/Aaron-era.

A garbage-tier retcon that Jason Aaron created.

Basically another retcon designed to lessen Odin's importance and power in the Thor mythos.

Cates considers Aaron his mentor and names Aaron's Thor run as his **ALL-TIME** favorite comic run.

That's who you're dealing with here.

Cates will not get tired of propping up the nonsense Aaron brought it. He publicly venerates it and happily mimics it.

You're totally right, that's why I'm not wasting time with this comic, it's clear from the beginning that Cates is not going to do anything good with Thor.

Spending money on this comic is giving the wrong message, since we make Marvel believe that Cates is doing things right when on the contrary it is a disaster.

So a Cosmic storm is a sentient being?

Could it be that she will now be the "Mother of Thor"?

It seems to prefer jane to Thor!

When was the last time Thor had a decent writer, who followed prior continuity?

The Hammer was created and empowered by odin still though?

When did Odin fight and entrap it then?

Based on what Jack Kirby and Stan Lee wrote back in the day when Thoe was new to Marvel, yes it was Odin's power that enchanted the hammer and made it to what we thought we knew about Mjolnir. Aaron had destroyed that concept and threw it out the window. Now anything is possible, and continuity be dammed. This means twenty years from now a new PC writer will come along and makeup some crap about the hammer being made by Galactus' grandmother two universes ago. I stopped buying Thor when Marvel went all PC and they are going down a path I cannot follow or spend money on.   

Then when we give you the source you can instantly check it out or you can actually you know start reading and doing your research.
You're obviously interested and so it's not a bad investment man...just saying

Better yet instead of supporting writers like Cates and Aaron read the their comics bootleg if morbid curiosity gets the better of you.

No comic penned by Donny Cates or Jason Aaron will ever get one cent from me personally.

Immodicus, I appreciate you rallying to the defence of "innocent" Jesusfan. But surely you must have realised by now that Jesusfan lurks around this message board just to annoy. S/he is not invested in the Thor character, history, or mythos at all, but pretends sympathy and interest to ruffle feathers when he can. S/he'll ask a few inane and puerile and leading questions, but when there's an emotive issue that will allow him/her to, s/he'll typically draw attention to it with relish in a way that allows her/him to subtly (or not) insult the character.
For those who have a genuine interest in Thor, they need not have read the comics to engage intelligently with fans, but for someone who posts so often on this board and who raises so many questions, one would expect him/her to be more knowledgeable. It is quite funny, really.
