Confirmed: Gwenpool Latest to Wield Thor's Hammer Mjolnir But You Will Never Guess How

In today's Gwenpool Strikes Back #4, Gwenpool does indeed get to wield Thor's hammer as promised….

See? Toldja. I mean there's a lot more in there, as we get a League Of Extraordinary Gwenpools, a genuine guest appearance of Chris Hastings, and a visit to that original cover by Chris Bachalo all those years ago. And, yes, a way for Gwenpool to wield Mjolnir, Thor's hammer, in a battle with the Hulk.

Because that is now a very worthy, albeit rotting arm indeed. Now all she has to do is get it back in time for Malekith to burn it…
