Thor (Marvel) vs Thor (mythology)

Mythor pwns

Yeah Mythor for me too. Funny story, Mythor was supposed to be the most 'down to earth' of all the Norse gods. He was very popular among the common folk. Marvel Thor is a pompous @sshole.

Marvels Thor, Marvel over powers all their characters, myth and otherwise.

Marvel Thor is below street level.

That can't be right. I've read zero of myth Thor and God of War told me he was a huge kunt that just murdered everyone.

MyThor via speed blitz

there are a lot of versions of myth thor, most aren't very well defined. there is at least one version of thor, a later, middle ages version, whose hammer would kill whatever it hit though. /shrug

The mythological Thor was no where near as powerful or strong as the Marvel version from what I recall while reading Norse mythology in high school. Marvel Thor should steamroll here. Oh, and from what I recall, Thor of mythology wasn't really a good guy in comparison to his Marvel counterpart. He was actually a bit of a douche, and would kill.

All mythology I remember reading was tame, power level wise, compared to comics.

Yep, for sure.

Greek Mythology was not.

Earth alone is boundless and endless in Greek Mythology and Zeus could make all of creation shake just by getting a bit mad.

In the end, it all depends on how you interpret it.

It's always full of flowery language, metaphors and other shit.

I have this one here in my bookshelf

Sorry couldn't find a bigger picture. xD

Anyway, I read about the Norse Mythology as a Child, Gaiman stayed true to the source if you are interested.

Marvel Thor would win.

Lawest is the premiere Wolverine fan.

Stilt always hated him like Pr always hated abhi.

Lawest just loves Hugh Jackman and wants him inside him.

Even DC,Marvel,Tolkien, and Lovecraft put together? Off topic; is there a left-hand path in Hinduism?

Ganesha's axe would cleave Mjolnir in two.

Stilt, stop sexually harassing people.

Pretty much. Mythological power levels were based on that cultures understanding of the natural world, and the ancient Greeks didn't quite understand what we do. Their universe("creation" was much smaller, and we're not even sure they knew other planets exist, much less how far away they are. Lightning and earthquakes were the most powerful events they can conceive of, and they could only really compare their gods to things like that.

I actually took a course in Greek Mythology in college. It was really cool, but battleboards mattered even less to the ancient Greeks than they do to modern writers. Take some of the "speedsters", like Iris and Hermes. One particular passage, I forget where from, had Iris moving a little bit faster than the speed of the wind. I think she had sparks flying off her from her speed(or rainbow light?), but that was considered an "OMG SHE'S SO FAST" moment in the story. Hermes had very similar descriptions from my recollection. They were supposed to be among the fastest of them, and it's basically stuff we'd see from a mid-meta today.

Typhon, the Giants, The Titans and such were all just massive monsters basically, and were huge threats to the Olympians. Fin Fang Foom would be a problem for Olympus if you ban Zeus using lighting. Granted, I do recall some strength feats. The two giants that Apollo killed could stack mountains up like legos or something.
