Could the lasso stop Thor's hammer from returning? Could the hammer snap the lasso? Whick is more durable

riv6672
No, the lasso's not stopping the hammer returning. Is WW holding the lasso? She gets dragged along.
Is it tied to something, then wrapped around the hammer? How extreme we getting?
Chances are whatever anchor's used is going to snap off.
An adamantium eyelet on an adamantium planet!
Yeah i'd say the lasso snaps then.

Cue naysayers...

I was thinking Juggernaut on one end Harald Jaekelsson holding the other and Thor hitting with all his strength

riv6672
Yeah, you might have wanted to point that out in the OP.
Its not a scenario that immediately springs to mind with what you wrote up there...stick out tongue

riv6672
The answer is no BTW. Hitting an elastic rope with a hammer isnt going to cut it.
And yes i know the lasso is links/from the golden girdle of Gaea, but its essentially an elastic rope and Mjolnir is a blunt object.

Unique variation of Irresistible Force vs Immovable Object. The only solution which maintains both conditions is that the hammer and lasso phase apart.

Actually, now I'm wondering: which force is stronger? The initial hammer throw to strike something, or when the hammer's coming back?

I reckon no, it can't snap it. It has been broken (pre-Flashpoint) in canon only under very specific plot driven circumstances.

riv6672
Sounds good.

Juggernaut never tried but he did get a ride from the hammer into Thor

Hawt.

disturbing. no expression

but the hammer has already overcome juggs' power by canceling it out in the form of his force field. i doubt juggs would be able to stop it even if he were walking in the opposite direction.

and i would think the lasso could prevent the hammer's return were one end of it tied to an infinitely strong something or other. it's been broken less often than cap's shield and with even bigger plot devices....

Yes, the main time I can think of was when Diana denied the truth.



Stopping the hammer, while *very* hard, isn't quite that level.

riv6672
As a woman, wouldnt it be impossible for her to deny the truth? As anything a woman says IS the truth? angel

But yeah, i can think if way more times the hammer's been compromised than the lasso.
More dramatic to see a weapon broken than a rope snapped i suppose.

Several times the hammer was stopped from returning. Thanos with a simple force field is the most recent. If the lasso is tied to something immovable then it clearly stops the hammer

It was Beta Ray Bills hammer he stopped returning via a forcefield.

I know!
Stormbreaker has the same enchantment as Mjolnir.

No it doesn't

riv6672
Did it state it did?
Serious, never seen it either way.

I mean wtf. People are acting like these hammers exist and can actually be measured to see if they have the same enchantment.
The truth lies in the mind of the writer. Clearly his intention was that they are equivalent. Otherwise, he would have made clear that they aren't in someway. In other words, they wouldnt have purposely deceived us to believe otherwise. Writer's are usually clear with their intentions.

riv6672
I gotcha. I tend to agree with you too.

riv6672
You know, unless you've read every comic ever written thats a really childish remark on your part, considering posters here regularly provide each other with information on characters and comics every single day.

So i'm guessing...you've done a lot of reading.

He was wrong on the example he used which I corrected him on, plus SG also corrected him(which you ignored)

h1 uses a generalisation to try use compare Thor's hammer to stormbreaker with out actually using any knowledge of the subject.

They are equals in enchantment. I equated stormbreaker with mjolnir as far as the enchantment is concerned. This is to show that a force field stopped it from returning. Loki Surfer also stopped Mjolnir with a force field.

Irony.
