In the Marvel movies, Thor is a mythical hero in the Marvel superhero universe. The first mention of him was in the comics of 1962, after which many films were shot based on them. The image of Thor is taken from Scandinavian mythology. Created and painted character Stan Lee, Larry Lieber and Jack Kerby. In 2011, Thor entered the TOP 15 best comic book heroes of all time.
Thor family
Thor's father is Odin, the ruler of all the gods in the world, Asgard. He was married to Frigga, the goddess of marriage, but he always wanted to have a child Asgard and the Earth, so he looked after the oldest goddess on our planet - Gaia. She gave birth to him a strong and powerful son in a dark cave in Norway. One took him away and raised him in his world with Frigga.
Thor had a brother Loki, who grew up with him. He was adopted by Odin at a young age, and all childhood, and after all his adult life, envied the Torah. Loki tried for many years to conquer the throne of his father in various ways.
When the torus was eight years old, his father gave him a magic hammer. But the boy needed to show that he was worthy of Mjolnir. Upon learning this, Thor decided that he definitely needed this hammer and for many years he trained and performed his famous exploits. And now, after another 8 years, Odin gave Thor a hammer and called him the best warrior in Asgard.
In addition to his brother, there is a Torah sister in Scandinavian mythology and the Marvel universe, who, as it turned out, is a villain. Hel, after her coming of age, was appointed the One Goddess of Death. She tried to persuade the dying Thor to live in her kingdom, and also stole her father’s soul while he was sleeping.
The intersection of Thor with earthly life
In the ninth century, the Vikings called Thor for the first time. This flattered God and he helped to win victory in battle. And after a couple of years, the Vikings destroyed a number of ministers of the Christian monastery in the name of Thor. God was disappointed in earthlings and returned to his homeland. A few years later, the religion of Asgard came to naught, but Thor and other deities still helped all the planets. At the same time, Odin's son still had pain in his soul, he was stiff, selfish and proud. Father was very worried about this.
Once Thor nearly destroyed the whole of Asgard. He pursued a giant on the nearby planet of the Ice Giants, which almost led to war. Upon learning of this, Odin decided to teach his son a lesson: erase his memory and send a lame earthling to his body. Thor ended up at medical university. Although Odin decided that his son would become much more modest and more devoted to his work, Thor did not live up to expectations. He became a highly qualified specialist and a brilliant surgeon in his own clinic.
Although Thor had forgotten his whole previous life, some memories still surfaced in his memory. One could not stand it and told his son everything and said why he sent him into exile in the guise of a man. Thor still continued to live in a world of people. Since his mother was the goddess of the Earth, he was drawn to her homeland, however, he himself did not understand this. Odinson decided to adopt the entire experience of earthlings in order to improve his own skills. And Odin himself decided to help both the Earth and Asgard and did this until his death. These are the Marvel comics in the biography of Thor left and shown to readers.
In addition to the fact that the Torah was drawn to Earth by kinship, he also had love. And God loved the nurse, who worked with him in the same clinic. She was mortal, so her relatives were against it, but this did not affect the relationship between Thor and the woman, while their romance nevertheless came to an end. After that, the god regained his connection with the goddess Seth. Thor is now popular as the founder of Avengers, the superhero team in which he is a member of the Marvel universe. Pictured Thor with the main characters.
Abilities of god
From his mother, he took qualities such as resistance to fatigue, tremendous strength and excellent regeneration. These indicators are much higher than the average earthling. And also he is partially not subject to old age, although he is not completely rid of it, and no human diseases take him. The whole body of God is stronger and more powerful than that of an ordinary person. Therefore, it is practically immune to severe damage.
One transferred to his son the abilities through which he absorbs cosmic and mystical energy. This all greatly increases the ability of Thor. With all his might, Thor can even destroy Captain America’s shield.
Outfit of god
The main weapon of Thor in Marvel is the Mjolnir hammer. It is made of a certain metal, and earlier it was believed that the artifact is indestructible. According to legend, these weapons were forged by more than one year the gnomes in the heart of a midnight star, which was about to go out forever. The hammer is one of the most powerful artifacts in the entire universe.
Thanks to the artifact, in the Marvel comics, Thor turns the storm into a deadly force, and it can destroy even the adamantium and kill immortals. All the energies that exist in the Marvel universe can be absorbed by Mjolnir.
Whatever Thor orders in the Marvel comics, the hammer performs like a living one. And also he has the ability to turn his possessor into a man, and himself into a cane of wood. One of the main features of the hammer is that it can travel any distance in order to save its owner. In addition to the hammer, the body of Thor is a kind of equipment.
Mjolnir reveals all the dimensions that Thor only wants to open. The hammer used to be able to wander in time with God, but this ability was taken away. Few people can raise the hammer of Thor, because only worthy ones who have good intentions in their heads can do this, and the heart overflows with honor. There are few such characters in the universe - Captain America, Odin, Red Norwell, and Tivaz.
Endurance
Odson is immune even to the destructive energy of black holes and neutron stars. Thor is so hardy that he travels through the sun and is present at the destruction of planets and the birth of new stars. One of the few who can destroy the Torah is Thanos, who possesses universal stones.
Impact force
Thor defeated such powerful opponents as the Hulk, Surfer and even Hercules. The hammer multiplies the strength of the hero in many ways, in the whole universe there are practically no objects that Mjolnir cannot destroy.
Elemental Management
The hammer was also created in order to control the elements at the right time, to create disasters, to destroy the villain or light a fire, to cause rain where it is practically impossible, as was the case in one of the short films “Marvel”. Thor can easily cause rainfall even in the desert and melt an ice cave.
Call Lightning
In addition to calling any natural element, Thor can release individual lightning. Sparks fly out of the hammer, which precisely hit the target. The impact force is so great that it can cover an area of three blocks.
Geomanipulation
Due to the fact that the mother of Thor is the goddess of the Earth, he inherited the ability to make cracks in the soil. The largest gorge created by God reached ten kilometers in length and several in height.
Moving in space
With the help of the same hammer, Thor develops a speed that is even incomparable with light and many times exceeds it. Besides distance, he could travel in time. Although then God lost this ability.
Teleport
Mjolnir is the key to all portals. Thus, Thor moves throughout the universe wherever he wants. With this action, a temporary vortex is created in which Odinson disappears.
Thor Movies
The first time, apart from the comics, Thor appeared in 1988. It was a movie called The Incredible Hulk: The Return.
