My heart is torn with love, my father! I crave permission to marry a mortal girl -- the nurse of Doctor Blake -- the one known as Jane Foster!
MORTALS! How like chattering monkeys you are!! Always gathering about those who want to be alone! Well, Thor has had enough of you! I have lost interest in your petty, puny lives!
If the Lava Men dare attack the surface, they must have a weapon more deadly than we suspect!! I must now learn what that weapon is!!
Wherever you are, Loki -- in whatever part of the known universe -- look to your defenses!! For nothing can save you now -- from the vengeance of THOR!!
Never have I faced such evil incarnate! Never have I been so anxious to strike out at it, drive it from the face of the Earth! Attack me at will -- I'll crush you both!
You have the temerity to summon us because some ants in an ant-hill are in need of assistance? I know not whether to feel wrath... or amusement!
Loki will have had all this time to prepare for our Trial -- and yet, I must not waver! Whatever my fate, I shall face it -- like a God!
Despite my every effort -- he beat me! Loki, with his sinister stones -- his cunning -- his deceit -- Loki has won!
Forgive me, my father -- this is the only way! Know you, now and forever, that I am Thor, son of Odin, God of Thunder!! 'Tis an immortal of Asgard whom you love, Jane Foster -- and who truly loves you as well!
Perhaps -- 'tis best to end this way! Without my power -- I am useless! Now that my limbs have failed me -- nothing remains -- save death!
For one brief fleeting instant of eternity, a God hath dared to love a mortal! Till the universe crumbles, my heart is ever thine!
I saw thee nay, Emperor of Evil! One there is who shall fight for the Prince of Power! Let thy warriors gather! Let thy own awesome forces be assembled! Against them all, I shall prevail!
Every part of this planet upon which we stand is verily a part of Ego!' He is everywhere -- he is everything! He is a living world!
Though you surely possess the awesome powers of the distant future -- The God of Thunder doth possess the powers of all eternity! Still art thou no more than mortal--! And still am I son of Odin, Prince of Eternal Asgard!
Hast thou so soon forgot?? 'Tis the God of Thunder who doth oppose thee! 'Tis mighty Thor -- at whose behest the storm doth erupt -- the lightning doth flash -- the heavens themselves reveal their awesome majesty!! SO BE IT!
What witchery is here afoot? Verily, Matthew Murdock (Earth-616) couldst be my mirror image! But since I am I - and Matthew Murdock (Earth-616) a knave-- then, let there be a reckoning!
THE ENCHANTERS!! Possessors of the Living Talismen!! Most evil... most powerful of all living foes! But, though they be a match for Odin himself... we shall prevail! THUS SPEAKS THOR!!
And yet -- no matter what a man may do -- let him do it well -- that he may deserve the name -- of man! Though I have been reduced to this -- still shall I perform -- as best I can!
Speak no more! 'Tis all most painfully clear! Thine own powers -- combined with his -- now make Loki the most invincible foe of all!
Planet and man... now locked in deadly struggle! But, ere the battle be resolved... LET THUNDER GOD PREVAIL!!
Mayhap, the day will come when men think of truth -- of right -- of love for all their fellows! I pray that 'twill come soon! For not till then will humanity fulfill its promise -- nay, not till then -- will man and god -- be one!
The Stranger! His vast power must ne'er be turned against the Golden Realm! Since he knows Thor doth exist -- he may follow me to Asgard -- unless -- I cause him to forget! And so I SHALL -- by making time TURN BACK!
Nay, Black Panther! Each man must follow his conscience -- and tread where it would lead him -- though the way be long and hard, and a thousand thousand demons bar his path!
O father Odin -- Lord of that which was -- of that which yet shall be -- let the elements reveal thy boundless power! Let the heavens themselves speak out against yon CARNAGE AND DESTRUCTION!
The Thunder God must fly once more! For there be wrongs to right - there be evil to avenge! Now let Dr. Doom beware -- for Thor now thirsts for battle!
I have seen -- INFINITY! I have solved the secret of the World Beyond! I know, at last, the reason why -- INFINITY MUST TRIUMPH!
Fear not, Lionel Dibbs (Earth-616). They shall not take thee in hand. Not whilst enchanted Mjolnir doth lie once more within my reach -- nor whilst Thor be still the God of Thunder -- master of storm and tempest -- monarch unchallenged of the winds that whirl -- AND LORD OF THE LIVING LIGHTNING!
List, ye heralds of hatred and holocaust. We four be but the meekest harbingers of those who follow. Turn back thine armada -- or face the wrath of an Earth aroused! We have spoken!
Tell me, noble Odin, beloved father, faithful liege -- wert thou certain that all thy precious pawns would survive thy planning and plotting? Or dids't thou not even CARE??
A brave lad, that Spider-Man. Those who speak ill of him do truly lie -- for 'een Thor doth envy him his courage -- and doth pray his own doth ne'er fail!
I call upon the powers that be mine -- to create the thunder! Aye, and the lightning! Most especially the lightning! Let the elements clash and sway, spearing the protesting sky -- AND STRIKE!!
Nay... I am helpless to act, as are we all. For, if one atom of this cosmic jewel be violently destroyed -- so too dies Sif -- and all of us as well!
I dare challenge thee, Varlet -- for 'tis the duty of the Son of Odin to be victor over those who wouldst wreak destruction on this planet -- even if ye be his CLOSEST FRIEND! THUS SWEARS THOR!
If thou hast not the stomach for such battle, Hercules, thou may remain with Ares. I go to seek the Lord of Death.
To strike for the right, with one's blood roaring and one's prowess the measure for survival -- as we two have so often done with the Avengers -- why 'tis then that a man be most fully alive! 'Tis then that true nobility will out!
HERCULES! Heimdall's eyes... he can barely stand! His skin is cold and clammy -- his body shakes, as though stricken with disease! By all the gods who live -- what happened to thee?
If ever a race were bred to violence and treachery -- to destruction and deceit -- such is the race called TROLL!
All that be important is that we have failed in our appointed task -- and because of us -- the planet Earth is DEAD!!
But we must Zarrko! The Time-Twisters were defeated ere they could e'en be born -- thus there was no cause for thee to have summoned us to this century -- and since thou didst not summon us -- we were never here!
Thy words are certain, yet thy tone is not, giant! Mayhap thou art learning -- that my words are no "trick!" The other Avengers aremortal, as thou sayest -- but I am far, far more!
No one may know that more fully than I, Janet -- but while thou wert ill, I did confront, for the first time, an obvious fact. As the Son of Odin, I, alone, am near as powerful as ye others combined. Though that hath been a great boon to the Avengers on diverse occasions, it hath rendered me, in the english term, "a big fish in a small pond." I have remained with ye more from vanity than from need. Ye have prospered without me on other occasions. Mayhap, in my heart of hearts, I did not appreciate that. I am ever yours, if the need for me be true -- but 'til then---! Iron Man, wilt thou remain?
I am young, but I grow older! Age will bring wisdom with it! In this, at least, I need have no doubt -- for when all is said and done -- I am the Son of Odin! THE GOD OF THUNDER! THOR, THE MIGHTY!
AVENGERS ASSEMBLE! Death to Ultron! Verily, this night we shall avenge our slain comrades, or taste death's bitter cup ourselves!
I shall leave thee alone with thy grief now, Bennet Barlow -- aye, and with this thought as well! Though thy brother lived in infamy -- truly did he die in glory! For how many other men have left a star to mark their passing?
Stand ye back, villains! Thor hath come to slay the eastern tyrant -- and none shall say him nay! He who tries shall taste the might of mystic Mjolnir -- and perish in the tasting!
From this day, I renounce my place in the Realm Eternal -- and woe to any who e'er would strive to bring me back!
But, 'twas written, that Lady Sif should be Thor's beloved. Sif... now one in being with Jane Foster. Thus did the turmoil in mine heart come to an end. And not all the powers in Hades can ever bring it back.
Then so be it! For the honor of an oath -- for the comfort of an enemy -- freely doth Thor sacrifice a portion of Mjolnir's mystic might!
Yon dragon doth remind me of the Midgard Serpent... and verily... this beast may possess even more fury, if not true evil.
And of all who live, said Mime, only you could instruct me in the ways of fear! And by all the gods above and below - you shall, dragon! YOU SHALL!
There be many Gods worshipped on this earth, Father Coza, throughout this universe... they are given truth by the strength of faith and thus, through belief and prayer, all are made true... all spring from the same universal higher force. Your faith is not misplaced. Go -- save yourself and the woman! You can! You have the faith! You have the strength! Go! Do it!
Ofttimes have I pitted my strength in battle against the green-skinned goliath... with no clear-cut decision as to which of us be the mightier! Perhaps this day, if battle be joined, a true victor will emerge!
Enow, demon! 'Tis a God thou must now contend with -- not some mere mortal! Thou hast saved me the trouble of hunting for thee, Nightspawn!
The snow -- it still falls! But how?! Have I not commanded it to stop? Can it be that for the first time in my life I am powerless over the elements? But why? Why am I unable to exert the control which is my birthright? Is there a higher hand at work? Can it be that All-Father Odin hath -- nay, not Odin! For what purpose would he work such deviltry? But there is one other possibility -- the mischievous hand of Loki!
Before you strain my patience to its end, release yon innocents -- or we shall do battle, thou and I, throughout all eternity! A never-ending strife without surcease -- with no quarter asked and none given! Make thy choice, demon!
Seethe, ye clouds! Crash, thunder! Flash ye spears of lightning! Rise and smite whoever wouldst dare usurp Thor's power!
You look upon me as a stranger -- an alien in thy midst -- and that is thy gravest mistake! Though different we be in degrees, thou and I, we are yet the same! And, too, you compound the error by looking upon each other as strangers, as aliens, as members of two separate races! But I say to thee... though different, thou art the same!
Truly, your power is fearsome, demon! It's no wonder mortals wither before it! But what matters this bitter cold flame of yours to one who has trod the icy wastes of Niffelheim, and endured the horror of the nether realms?
I now call down the living lightning that be mine to command -- the roaring gale -- the full, unfettered fury of the storm!
The beings of one such realm -- regarded as gods in one era of Earth's mythology -- would now honor thee! On the glorious Rainbow Bridge they stand assembled -- every one a name out of legend! You have fought against some, beside others, yet to a body they do honor you as a warrior amongst warriors!
Your faith is failing you, Crusader. Your power fleeing. Your bitterness has failed to darken the light of goodness! And never shall mankind return to the vile intolerance you preach... and the vicious hatred from which all men seek so earnestly to free themselves!
This day Kamo Tharnn, we have recovered a lost friend and made a new friend of an erstwhile foe. It has been indeed a noble and meritorious venture.
No, grandfather! You shall not! Do you still think that your fate rests within yourself? That I have come all this way to discover a dotard seeking Valhalla through deception? You have called upon the Gods of the Icy North, and they have answered you! Now, your life... is mine!
HEAR ME, YOU ELEMENTS! HEAR ME, STORMS! RISE UP IN YOUR WRATH! A WARRIOR HATH DIED THIS DAY, AND YOU SHALL CARRY HIM TO HIS DESTINY! NO LONGER EILIF THE LOST, BUT EILIF THE DRAGONSLAYER! STRIKE NOW! AND FIRE THIS HOLY MOUND!
Time is of the essence. Mankind has few enemies as deadly as this one, and none that surpass the Dark Elf in villainy. You have spoken the name of Malekith the Accursed!
We shall need every bit of aid we can muster! Mere mortals would be helpless before the Sons of Muspell... but there be nothing "mere" about you mortal Avengers! If e'er your power was needed, it is needed now! Let the call go forth throughout the land! Let the Avengers assemble!
THE GJALLERHORN! HEIMDALL SOUNDS THE GJALLERHORN! THE ENEMIES OF THE GODS STAND BEFORE THE GATES OF ASGARD!
I am finally resolved on the course of action I must take! And I will assist my step-brother, whatever the cost! The throne of Asgard must be Loki's!!
Look you, Loki, to the sky! For there soars the hammer of Thor and by royal Odin's decree, it must return to my hand. Nothing may bar its way! Not even the head of Loki!
Then follow me, you heroes... and let the hunt begin! FOR HELA BECKONS AND THE HEL-HOUND GARM AWAITS!
Although my power has been diminished far below that of the God of Thunder... still I possess powers and abilities far beyond that of any mortal frog.
Still, there is anoterh perhaps more worthy of the throne than I. One whose bravery is the equal of Thor's; one whose nobility surpasses my own. I speak of none other than Balder the Brave!
Though I should perish a thousand times, monster, I will never surrender to mine enemies! If this truly be Thor's final battle, then let the skalds forever say that though his body failed him in the end... his fighting heart spurned every thought of defeat!
My sire was ruler of the gods, rash thurse! Odin was my father and the thunder and lightning are my birthright! They speak my name in whispers in the nurseries of thine icy home!
Only a fool has no fear, serpent, and I am no fool. But I have many names, serpent, even as you. Vingthor the hurler, Longbeard's son, have I been called. Hrodr's foe-man, too. In Tyr's ancestral home, wisest Hymir knew my name as Veur; unhappy Hrungnir's playmate some have called me. East of Elvigar in Gianthome they whisper Hloriddi's name. My father called me son. My mother called me darling. And beneath the vaults of Heaven, I am Thor Odinson, the Thunderer, Jormungand's fear!
You said it yourself, Jormungand! The trouble with godhood is that it robs you of your finer judgment! And that is why we will never be the same. You are a mighty fighter, but in the end, you are only a selfish creature, while heroes... heroes have an infinite capacity for stupidity! Thus are legends born!
Verily, devourer, though my body be broken and torn, my fighting heart spurns every thought of defeat! By freeing my soul you have handed me the means to victory -- for my spirit will never yield to one such as thee!
Look out, you Giants and Trolls! Beware, you denizens of the depths and dwellers in the fortresses of evil! Gird up thy loins, you harbingers of death and destruction! Let those in direst need lift up their voices that I may hear them! The God of Thunder is loose and woe to those who would harry the innocent and the weak! For they shall have a champion! So be it!
Zeus, we did not come in search of war, but you have forced our hand! Olympus (Realm) shall know our wrath! Yea, and you shall learn why we be called AVENGERS!
Others may hold thy space-faring race in awe, and worship ye as cosmic deities -- but I do not!! Thou art rude, pompous, and utterly lacking in proper manners!
May are the wondrous sights I have seen! Many are the monstrous foes I have battled! But never before have I beheld such terrifying majesty! Such awesome magnificence! Nothing can compare with the limitless power of -- the Celestials (Race)!
They were a team... and now the team is gone, loyal friend. None of our reserve members are available and there is no time to field and train a new team. I have notified the West Coast Avengers of our dissolution.
Loki shames me, father. He is right! I found mortals to be possessed with a great courage and tenacity, e'en in the face of Hela herself! They are worthy of our respect and protection! The seed of godhood grows in their bosom and must be nurtured!
Methinks there be certain truths which are utterly beyond the ken of mortal and machine... and e'en the gods themselves!
The enchanted hammer of Thor can create a vortex that will carry us whither its master commands, to another city or another star! Reed Richards hath said that we must journey to the great anomaly he detected in the heavens. SO BE IT!
Behold the right prescription for dealing with yon miscreants! Take one sacred hammer... and bother not to call me on the morrow!
The Mighty Thor hath returned! Let the righteous rejoice! Let the wicked cower in the shadows! The true God of Thunder doth reclaim the power and glory which is his by the divine birthright of a warrior born!
It ends now, my once and former friend! Only the basest of villains could harm this fragile and innocent flower! Thou hast come to slay the mighty Thor... and slay him thou must! For, if thou dost fail... THOR SHALL MOST SURELY SLAY THEE!
Once I did truly think I was the mortal, Don Blake, who did have the gift of magically transforming into the God of Thunder. But 'twas only an illusion of your design, Odin, to teach an arrogant son humility. Then came the noble alien, Beta Ray Bill, whom you did grant part of my power, part of what makes me Thor. My mantle was even worn by one of Midgard, Eric Masterson, leaving me trapped within his frail shell. So many guises... such confusion. Pieces and bits.
I humble myself before your glory, and vow my undying fealty. Know that now and forever... mighty Thor is your dutiful slave.
Who dares summon the Lord of Lightning? Who hath need of the noble Son of Odin? The Mighty Thor, God of Thunder!
AWAY, ALL! I will crush any who stand 'twixt myself and the high road back to Earth -- even you, father, if you stand in my way!
I think -- if you'll not press me to call you "master" -- Aye! I shall tarry with you for the nonce!
I gave up much, when I did depart the Realm Eternal. Friends -- father -- aye, even fatherland. Now I journey to a new home -- within another moutain -- an earthly one called Wundagore.
But this day -- you do face -- THOR! THOR -- he who wields the power of the thunderbolt in fist as well as hammer! THOR -- he who is the storm incarnate -- the tempest made manifest! THOR -- Son of Odin the All-Father -- and no less formidable for having turned his back on eternal Asgard!
First, I must make my shattered hammer whole again -- then it shall carry me to the once-hallowed halls of Asgard -- where I shall force the truth about Donald Blake from the lips of Odin himself!
I stand with you -- my friends! The Godpack circle is complete -- and woe to any who would seek to break it!
'Tis not the fair Morgan Le Fay from whom you shall require mystical protection this day -- for now you face the unparalleled wrath of the Mighty Thor!
Morgan LeFey bedazzled my senses and entranced my mind! Now shall she face the unfettered fury of a god enraged!
Nay, Blitziana. Though you have all been loyal comrades, my brief stay in Hel gave me time to reflect -- and to decide. If I cannot return to age-old Asgard -- neither can I now be a part of something so new as the High Evolutionary's Godpack. I mean to remain on Earth -- yet from this day forth, Thor must go his own way!
For I am lord of the winds...and the storm! Thunder and lightning are my hunting dogs...the rain is my whip...and when I must, I ride a great and terrible steed...the earthquake! Nothing mortal can stand before it.
So many such as he have I battled... Frost Giants, monsters of all manner once trembled before my might. And now look at me! Helpless! Pitiable! Once The Hulk would have been a true challenge to my warrior mettle. Once, a mere strike of my hammer would -- BRAKOOM -- It would appear, good Hercules... that even a god my believe in miracles.
Yea, warriors. Sole survivor of the closing conflict. Dr. Robert Bruce Banner -- and all of Midgard proper -- have finally found the peace they both so richly deserve... the Hulk is dead.
The sword goes to rot in my hand. But am I once again the Lord of Thunder? Yes. YES! Even now I can hear the Frost Giants breaking into the palace. Pity the Frost Giants. I sent them the lightning! The storm... and scatter them with the hurricane... to the last man.
'Tis a vessel to hold him we need? Then use mine -- my flesh and blood! The sinew of the Thunder God shall surely contain such a wicked storm -- and once it does -- you must show me no mercy! Only by felling me can you fell Onslaught!
You seek reaving? You seek battle? Then hold up thy hammer... and measure the strength of thy right arm... for the mettle of the Avengers is about to be tested to its limits. The battle against this deadly Loki may consume us all... and the hammers of the Thunder Gods are needed as never before! If battle is thy desire, brother, thou shalt have it... aplenty!
A threat most dire, good Jarvis. An enemy too great for any of us -- and yea, too great e'en for we five together! Once more then, the word must be spread, and the battle-clarion must be sounded. in every corner of Midgard, then -- and the heavens themselves -- let the cry ring out --
Thou didst summon the Son of Odin - immortal of great Asgard! Speak thy piece and let all in attendance know what thou dost require of -- Thor, God of Thunder!
A base villain such as thou art unfit to wear the armor of one so proud! Nor art thou noble enow to carry the shield and colors of one whose every move defines honor! And how dare thee tarnish the garment of she who preserved the very life you sought to take!
We be much alike, Prince of Atlantis. Nobles, alone in the company of man. Wouldst thou care to partake of a tankard of mead? To sing of past glories and revel in lost adventures upon the high seas? To discuss the ways of mortal man?
Then my father and brethren are doubtless prisoners! Let them know that there shall be war unto death once more! SO SWEARS THOR!
'Tis most difficult to explain, Johnny Storm, but a feeling of sadness - of most tragic loss doth leave me heavy of heart.
The Wasp made mention of The Infinites in her report on the Destiny War. They were said to be a menace in our futures.
When last we met, the battle was waged on thy terms! But if thou wouldst challenge the gods -- 'tis on the level of gods that war must be fought!
T-Tarene? Speakest thou, Destroyer! If, indeed, Tarene's life essence gives thee life -- this battle must go unfought! Verily, I must not strike thee! For the significance of thine everlasting survival dwarfs all other concerns!
'Tis the saddest of all occasions which draws us together. The greatest of the great -- the most splendid of the splendid - hath been taken from us. Thus do we gather in respect for Odin. His word was law. His judgment sound. His honor unequaled. Without him, we are less than we were.
Living as a mortal -- abiding by the civilized laws of Midgard -- hath tamed me! HERE -- and FORE'ERMORE -- does that affliction END!
Thou thought... to behead me? To cast Asgard adrift again so soon? Clearly, thou hast heard of the Bloodaxe of Skurge the Executioner, Desak! Fitting sure -- for it will be the DEATH OF THEE!
Let the eyes of Midgard turn fore'er upward to a new dawn! Let their vision be fore'er influenced -- and filled with aspiration -- by the glory and eternal richness of Asgard!
We came in peace, Spider-Man, yet thine own kind would annihilate millions to do away with us. And thou darest claim thou needst no guidance?
Thou claimest greater strength and power. Above all else, know this, Perrikus. Until this moment -- thou didst not know -- what true power is!
I would stop a potential murderer from taking a life here on Broadway... so why would I not do the same with a despot who'd brutalize thousands? A map's borders must not silence the cries of the suffering. Not when they need salvation.
I cannot help but wonder... if this nameless mortal, in his death, has set into motion events that will affect all that which is yet to come?
Those mortals died with my name on their lips. Such disregard for life is never to be tolerated. We go to Slokovia.
Leave off, Amazon. I have the answer. They are all touched by power -- their master's, no doubt. Mighty Mjolnir can sense that power -- and follow it!
Thor. Very nice guy. Wears a 56 long. It's snug on him, but that's how he likes it. Reads gardening magazines. And Modern Bride.
My father is stern, Superman, but not stupid. A very few worthies have been allowed to overcome the spell, in desperate hours. But know this. Perhaps it was but briefly...but it was in good hands.
I am Thor, Son of Odin! On behalf of my father, ruler of all Asgard, I command you to cease your attack and comply with my requests!
Once we were children. Balder, Loki, Vidar and I. Sif would play with us. Loki is my brother and... I once loved even his mischievous nature. It seems now he is doomed to it.
And, as I gaze into eternity... I see nothing... if only I had a star to guide me... or a bird to show me a sign... for the moment, I think, I will rest... I'll lie still and silent. Strip my mind of thoughts... I shall close my eyes and breathe deep the slumber of gods... for awhile, at least...
Sif. Heimdall. Balder. Fandral. Volstagg. Can your souls hear me? Do my words find you, in the hearts of mortals? If they do, then hear this vow. I shall find you. Though I comb the four corners of the Earth in my quest. I shall find you.
Give your orders and ultimatums to those who choose to obey, or are too cowardly to fight. Not to me. Or learn again the difference between a God of Thunder -- and a mortal man in a metal suit.
Born I was a God of Thunder... son of Odin... but also a son of the Earth... a child of the Elder Goddess Gaea. Only recently I learned this, and rarely have I invoked that power. Or spoken with that voice. NOW LET THAT VOICE BE HEARD!
Today we fight, brothers and sisters. Today we stand up and never, ever relent. Brothers and sisters -- prepare yourselves: Today we go to war.
Once, you swore an oath upon this hammer, which can pierce the Nine Worlds and penetrate the veil between life and death itself, that if any of our voices were raised in summons, you would come, though every force in heaven and earth stood against you. And I wonder... if it can still find you, there in sthe darkness... and you can still hear the words. AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!
As a founding member of the once-great Avengers, I say to thee, I have fought alongside Janet van Dyne in many a battle. Battles that have saved this world from destruction. It was my honor to call her teammate and friend. The halls of Asgard share your grief today, and they shall sing praise and rejoice that such a warrior ever walked this earth. The gates of Valhalla are richer today.
Asgardians -- a toast. To one of our own. Against the hordes of Hel he stood alone. He defended the bridge at Gjallerbru so that we could pass and right a great wrong done to the innocent souls of Midgard. Raise your glasses. To Skurge the Executioner!
Well. I'm afraid I'm not in a position to disappoint him. To halt this invasion, you must lose this fight. Don't worry, I won't hurt you... but let's make this look good, all right?
You little men in your little suits. That is all you ever do. It makes no difference whether you craft them from iron or steel or uru... there is no metal in your hearts.
You might invent mighty and terrifying machines, Stark -- But they cannot be described as "durable."
Stupid Stone Man. Thor remembers you. You tried to kill Thor when Thor first returned to mudball Earth!
I was king and defender both. It is too much. A single stroke leaves Asgard in a weakened state... and that's what led to this. You ruled Asgard, yes... but with its strength depleted. Your advisers were prone to mischief. It would not be that way again.
Even though we shared no blood. Even though so much blood fell between us... we were brothers. And let none claim to the contrary. You died well, Loki. You lived poorly. My brother, you will be missed. Your mischief will be not... I pray that this is an end of it.
I fear we are in the bowels of Hel, my friends. I fear we have died. And this is the punishment for all our sins and the sins of our fathers.
Waves are but water. Wind but air. And though lightning be fire... yet it must answer thunder's call.
Move against Asgard and you move against me -- and if you move against me, you move against Mjolnir -- which is profoundly unwise.
One lie -- or ten thousand! It makes no difference -- to the light of truth! To the divine lightning -- that burns away lies!
Because our story isn't finished yet. Because you still have a part to play. All-Father dreamed he saw you atop a steed, leading the armies of the dead... also, you are my brother, Loki -- and I would not see you dead by my hand.
Tony Stark of Midgard, King of Warrior-Builders. We say thee aye. Go forth and build us a city of dreams. And may we both be as fearless and resilient as the day is long.
I am eager to go gift the great Galactus such pain he'll curse the day he ever heard the word Asgard. FOR ASGARD!!!
I have thought long on those prophecies, brother: that you woud bring about the end of times; that you must one day lead the armies of discord against Asgard. What say we test the strength of the prophecy here by ending it before it begins?
There are two sides to every possible future. At any point you may go onward or back... up or down... left or right. Heaven or Hell. Life or death.
The question is the same for me as it is for you: who am I and why am I here? The answer remains the same as it ever was: Ask me tomorrow.
Father, there are times I hate you with the passion of ten thousands suns. But I will escort to Hel personally anything that torments you more than I.
...And so I take my leave of you. Ransak and Karkas have agreed to be my guides to Lemuria... wish us every success.
I am Thor, son of Odin, god of thunder. In all of creation -- in all of un-creation -- I require but one small thing to triumph over any odds...hope.
This is the price you pay, mortal. If you would live as lightning... you must answer to the God of Thunder! BEGONE!
If we fail, whole worlds will perish, beginning with our own. Stand fast, my friends...today is as good a day as any to die.
The Phoenix is on a path towards Earth. Our homes. Our families. Our futures. It falls on us to stop it. To stand against this unstoppable force. I cannot say if we will live beyond this foe. I know only one thing with certainty...The Avengers will assemble and we will try.
Perhaps you're right. Perhaps this is a mistake. But if it's not...if my one life can prevent the untold deaths that will result from their war -- then I have to do it.
I've seen war in the heavens. I've seen gods suffer and bleed. I've seen immortal fathers subject their own sons to torments you could never imagine. I've seen Hel itself. But no... I've never seen anything like the horror in this god's eyes.
For years I have witnessed this enmity between man and mutant. I believed the resolution to simply be a matter of time. That the inherent nobility of mankind would prevail, peace would follow. It is no longer a conflict I will stand by to let run its course. Whoever did this wanted to start a war. They will have one. This craven has earned the full attention of Thor, God of Thunder.
God Butcher! Can you hear me?! How many more of your dogs must I dismember before you come out and face me, you coward?! You want to kill gods?! Well here stands the God of Thunder! Come kill me, you worm! Come kill Thor if you dare! GOD BUTCHER!
I know your madness. Your life is battle, and nothing more. This world is your battlefield, and nothing else. The blood roars in your ears and the song of it plays in your heart. What began in pain and rage is now lost in that sound. You fight because you do not know how to not fight.
This cannot be right. Perhaps this is one of those alternate futures that the X-Men are always going on about. Surely I do not grow up to become... my father.
You are a brave and fearsome warrior, and together we are sure to face many foes on many adventures... standing side-by-side in great battles, and the celebrations that will follow. But this is a giant. And I was born to fell giants.
The possibility of death enobles the people of Midgard -- beyond my capacity for awe -- with the risks they take every day in each others service. I bow to that. And now I bow to you.
Break them warlord... Strike like lightning on the darkest night, scorch the heavens... rain fire down on them.
Out there are gods and men and all creatures in between. They were born and all will die, but each one... with a purpose. Surely I tell you that the universe has conspired to put the world in our very hands. It is a test for titans... and only we can save it. Your entire life has led to this day. You were born for this. As was I. Will you join me in teach the oldest lesson of all?
This is the first time since they met that our League hasn't been squabbling and threatening to kill one another. Now perhaps once they sober up, they'll go back to the way they were. Or maybe, just maybe... there'd be far fewer wars if we'd all just learn to drink with one another now and then.
You attempt to enfog the mind of a god? Thine attempts are laughable. Also, thine attempts succeed. Tonight, I and my partner shall undertake the dreaded quickstep in a routine choreographed by Sonya Tayeh.
You have stolen what is mine. Called this dread down from the far realms to destroy my home. You have twisted the rules of life and resurrected those better left dead. Surrender. Return Jarnbjorn. Or I will kill you both.
Hear me, man of Roxxon, and mark well the words of Thor. Anyone who threatens Midgard... shall come to know this hammer in ways they shall find most uncomfortable.
If it will end these good people's suffering, then aye... Thor will beg this day. The safety of Broxton and its citizens means more to me than my price ever could. Just tell me, great lord or Roxxon... how much begging will it take to make you feel like a man?
Because we were divided. Because we would not behave as heroes. It was our lack of unity that brought about this great disaster -- it will be our combined might that sets it right.
Aye, Asgard will always be my home. But as my mother has taught me... sometimes we must let go of the things we love. Come, Agent Solomon. Mead is calling.
Are there any in your Heven who have seen a storm? You know wealth, Queen of Angels. You know power. But I fear you know little of thunder. And now... you have made the master of storms your prisoner. And I have called my great servant to me, while you played your games. And though it took time for it to cross the span of realms and meet you... THE STORM IS HERE.
We shall drink this day in victory, or in Valhalla. Either way, I swear to you on the eye of my father... the God of Thunder will raise the first glass.
Aye. It is an end. But to die... striking down the great destroyer? That would be a fitting one. And if you pray. Pray that I am not found wanting. And instead am worthy of such a glorious end.
Should they still desire war, then we will freely slaughter every one of them... they will see what it truly means to be hunted.
If this is our fate, so be it. But if I am to die, let it be with lightning and thunder... and the power of Thorr.
Sam, you earned the right to drink with Asgard's finest... when thou art old enough to lift a stein.
Do not call me by that name. I am not worthy of it. I am still the Prince of Asgard. I am still the Odinson. But she is Thor now. That hammer has the power to destroy worlds, or to save them. Carry it well. Thor.
For I am the Stormbringer! The Master of Thunders! I am Harrower of Hel and my late father's son! I am all that you have forgotten -- unworthy one!
Thought I told you to drop this case. Looks like you didn't listen. Good. Maybe now we can get some work done.
They think me weak because I am unworthy. Let them. I am still a God and more than a God. I am Asgardian-born. The blood-son of Odin, the Lord of the Storm and the Raging Thunder. And I'll be damned if I need a hammer in order to raise some Hel. But this day I will claim one nonetheless. No matter how much blood I must wade through. So swears the unworthy Thor.
Thanos already has a head. 'Tis guts he is sorely lacking. If he should find some, tell him the Prince of Asgard will be waiting to face him -- hammer in hand!
Do thy worst against Thor, child -- but I doubt thy magicks will be effective against an Asgardian whose lifespan is far greater than can be imagine! IRON MAN! SMITE HER!
We may be... but flesh... and blood... subject to... the vagaries of time... but Mjolnir... is eternal!
They tell me only they can save Jane Foster from the purgatory where she now resides. Only they can restore this realm's connection to Asgard. I sense the lie in this -- but -- he wielded Mjolnir. He was proven worthy, even when I am... not. I -- I don't understand, father. Help mne -- because what they ask me to do now -- is something terrible.
I have just participated in the slaughter of sentien creatures. No masster how destructive and dealy were they... that is a line I am never eager to cross.
"The world needs a Thor." Aye. And you have been one hel of a Thor, my lady. Frost Giants, The Destroyer, the gods of the Shi'ar, the Phoenix, my bastard back-stabbing brother, my uru-headed father... you have faced them all. Now face this. For the world needs more than just a Thor. It needs you, Jane Foster. All of you.
Thor, God of Thunder... says... as the stars are my witness... it must be us. We... need this. Now more than ever. We three need one another. We cannot run from that, my brothers. We must embrace it.
I've butchered more Giants and Trolls and wicked gods than you could ever imagine. I might mourn your death for a thousand years. But if you insist on doing all you threaten... I WILL KILL YOU.
Ah... might either of you know where to find the nearts lavatory? Or perhaps the quickest way to access the sea?
Lend me your ears and your mead, men of the north! And the God of Thunder will tell you the most harrowing true tales of the greatest viking who ever lived!
Doc, I'm going to need your professional opinion. Have I had too much mead today or do I see Deadpool walking through our front yard?
You are alive. Just as sure as you've given life to me. We are bound in blood and thunder forever, my friend. Both of us reborn, renewed. And now, with the great war finally at an end, together we must decide... who we are meant to be.
If Thor had a tankard of mead for every would-be lord of the underworld who sought to terrorize the living for their own petty ends... Thor would be drunk and joyous right now. Tell me, King Blaze... does Thor look joyous to you?
Must... hold hammer. Holding hammer... means... still worthy. Still worthy. Still worthy. Still Thor. Thor... not Brood. Not want to kill. Not feed. Not infect. Not bite and tear and slaughter.
You know I leave you here each night for a reason, right? Because if I can't move you out of the way... then I don't deserve to sit there. So let's see where we are today then, shall we? All-Father it is. For another morn at least. So be it. Gods know it's been a long hard road to get to this place. And personally, old friend, I'm rather excited... to see where we go from here.
NO MAN NOR GOVERNMENT OF MAN CLONES THE GOD OF THUNDER! I WILL RIP THEIR BONES FROM THEIR -- wait... they only cloned Thor's head? What has happened to my beautiful and majestic body?
Galan of Taa. On behalf of the countless planets you have destroyed and laid barren in your wake... for Archeopia. For Massikron. For Elynore-143. For Draven-Barr. For Clypse. For Sylus. For IO-X4. For Vanysh IVII. For Kryo. For Korbin. For Zenn-La. For Earth. For Asgard. I sentence you to death.
I am Thor -- the Gaea-Son! I have quested long, to learn my mother's way! To learn her will! And to those who would control her bounty -- use it to take life, her greatest gift -- I SAY THEE NAY! Mother Gaea plays no favorites, wizards of the Cotati! Her magic is stronger than yours -- and in her name -- LET THY POWER BE REVOKED!
I have feared that I would soon be unable to lift Mjolnir. That somehow... it has grown tired of me... or that I have again become unworthy... but the truth... the truth is much worse... it is not only that I struggle to lift Mjolnir... it is also that everyone else does not.
Tony... listen to me very carefully... do not mistake wielding my hammer... for wielding my power. Mjolnir or not, I am still a god. And you... are a tin man in a lightning storm.
Midgard is under my protection, as are all the Realms of the World Ash. I have killed hundreds like you!!! All of them claimed to be the one true death! The Living Void! The End! To that I say, I am King Thor Odinson, God of Lightning and Thunder and protector of every realm in this galaxy!!! I SAY WHEN IT ENDS -- AND I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!
I have come here to tell you that I will live a thousand years and a thousand lifetimes more. And by the gods of the elder, Asgard shall outlive even me... and in that time... I shall remain Asgard's king... but... I am afraid... I can no longer be its hammer.
You are powerful, Mjolnir. You are the lightning that walks. A great and dreadful storm. But a storm nonetheless. And I am still your god.
Then follow the thunder and fight like mad-eyed berserkers! For Midgard! For one another! For the ruination of devils! AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!
Jane... remember who you are. You are Jane Foster. You're a doctor, a cancer survivor, a Valkyrie, you are ever worthy -- and you have always, always had thunder in your veins. There is no version of you I would not love.
I am more than a hammer, King in Black. And if you are god as well as king... you now face The King of Gods. The All-Father of Asgard -- in the full measure of his birthright!
I shall not withdraw, for I am the sworn protector of the entire Earth! Which does indeed, include Trenton!
Thou accused me falsely, Dwarf, and stole from me. No more! I am THOR! And thou shalt trouble me no more!
For all the shock, the World Tree is quick to heal. I can feel the thrum of her voice deep in my bones. A thrum that thanks me. If I am to be All-Father -- truly, and without reservation - these must be my rewards. The joy of knowing that wrongs have been righted. Of knowing that my subjects are safer today than yesterday. Including those who thwart me. Especially those who thwart me.
Worship. Supplication. Adulation. You feed off it, Idol Alabaster. You weaponize it. But I am a god who has never required worship. I have only ever needed the thunder.
Oh, aye. A chunk of metal falls from the sky, and who do you send to smash it to pieces? I do have other qualities, you know.
Tormod shall I call thee. For to solve Loki's riddle, my mind must be as keen as thou art... and we shall test the edge of both.
The question -- nnhh -- those like us are always asked. Who's stronger? Can I arm-wrestle the Hulk? Run a race with Quicksilver? Challenge Willie Lumpkin in a contest of wiggling ears? Quickly -- rrh -- measure the results! Write them down, to see who is worthy! But strength is relative to the need for it. If I have to... I can stand on Jupiter. I can stand anything if the need is great and the cause is just -- as can you. As can we all. We are not measured by strength, nor by raw power. The measure of us is what we do... when the need for action lies with us... AND THE HAMMER IS IN OUR HAND.
A dream. Nightmare, you have taken a terrible liberty. My friends are some of the mightiest mortals ever assembled. But they are mortals. Like all mortals, they are at the mercy of their dreams. But I am a God. And what is a God if not a dream that mortals have ever been at the mercy of? AVENGERS... ASSEMBLE!
There is an Utgard-Loki. There is an Utgard-Thor. Are there more? Somewhere... in that forest, beyond that gate... is there an Utgard-Odin?
