Who's Picking Up Mjolnir Today? (Thanos #17, Thor #705 and Damnation #3 SPOILERS)

Published Wed, 21 Mar 2018 07:54:54 -0500

At the end of Thanos #16, we saw the Silver Surfer of the future confronting the Thanos of the future – and the present – holding Mjolnir. It seems to be a thing of late, Vision in the movie, Hydra Captain America, everyone seems to be worthy these days.

The hammer of Thor is one of the most powerful weapons in the Marvel Universe and it makes Thor nigh-invulnerable. Of course, that's just 'nigh' and in Thanos #17, out today, both Thanoses exploit that flaw.

Written by Donny Cates there. While over in Doctor Strange: Damnation #3, in which Thor has been Ghost Rider-ised, Dony Cates writes someone else having a go…

Moon Knight? He's so crazy it just might work. However in Thor #705, not written by Donny Cates, we see a fate for Mjolnir at the hands of that might deny the future Silver Surfer…

In the upcoming Thor #1 we see Thor Odinson back in the helm with a new golden hammer. Looks like he won't be getting Mjolnir back any time soon. As for him getting the potential to take the helm back… could no one have called Cecilia Reyes over in X-Men Gold?

…just does have a particular set of skills.
