Picking Up Thor's Hammer In Marvel Comics Today (Spoilers)

Today's Nightcrawlers #2 envisions a combined Nightcrawler/Wolverine chimaera clone taking down Thor, by literally disarming him.

Today's Nightcrawlers #2, part of the Sins Of Sinister world set one hundred years into the future, warped into Mister Sinister's image, envisions a combined Nightcrawler/Wolverine chimaera clone taking down Thor, by literally disarming him. Though the Nightkin picking up Mjolnir to add to their arsenal, may be a little harder to accomplish.

Avengers #66, also out today, featuring Avengers past, present and future in a final battle against all the Mephistos, also presents a version of Thor less than able to engage in battle, as the Thor, God of Fists.

Thankfully there are Thor spinoffs of the future willing to step in and pick up the fight. It's hammer time.

Nightcrawlers #2 has a less obvious solution. With a Sinister-born chimaera, a combination of Nightcrawler and Lost, Lost-In-Shadow who has the ability to manipulate the forces of gravity, in and around herself. And the hammer of Thor.

So no one has to lift anything and, in happier times, means she would have a fine career carrying grand pianos up and down staircases rather than spinning Mjolnir in a figure of eight. Less likely to get a cheer from an Avenegrs Endgame audience though.
