Is Thor without his hammer that wimpy?

Think about it...great unarmed fighter, has 100+ strength & durability. Even without his hammer he should be as powerful as Hercules. IIRC, didn't the Scion of Asgard use to fight the Hulk while unarmed? Why would he be weaker than Superman in a brawl? Same strength and durability...Superman usually forgets his speed...laser-vision obviously means nothing. Why would Superman pwn him? Wouldn't Thor with his hammer make it the reverse, since it's actually a weapon? Also, wouldn't using a weapon against an unarmed foe violate Asgardian warrior honor or something? So Thor's been using his hammer on unarmed enemies for about 47 years...

I understand where your coming from/ your logic. But all of Thor's strongest attacks, and powers are through his hammer. There is nothing to show how strong he would be without it. He would definitely be weaker. He would definetly still be strong but it has been hinted/ alluded to in many comic issues that Thor's strength resides in his hammer. He is still a God without it and very strong but Thor with Hammer is clearly much stronger than Thor without Hammer.

First off all you are making tons of assumptions without evidence. I do not know if he is as strong as Superman or even Hercules without his hammer. I would say Superman is generally more durable, except against magic than Thor is more durable.

As for the Asgardian warrior honor, no idea where you got that from.


(PS. I'm glad I got this post in before Bada comes and closes your thread, just like your other 3, but I do not think he will close this one.)

Since when did Mjolnir make him stronger?

Well for one, I do not think he can command Lightning without his Hammer. And I am sure his punches are not as strong as a wack from his hammer. Not saying he is weaker without his hammer. But his attacks are stronger and more versatile with his Hammer.

There is no Godblast without Mjonlnir so that is an extreme offensive setback.

He can control the elements without Mjolnir so that is not a problem.

Thor's power resides inside him, Mjlonir is just a conduit ie it makes controlling his power somewhat simpler kind of like Orion with his harness.

But you are right, he is more dangerous wielding his hammer as it's basically a weapon added to his arsenal.

Only way i can see him being wimpy is when he's inside the Donald Blake human form since he needs to slam that staff on the ground to transform into Thor.

I feel sad for Thor. It's embarrassing to be dragged around by a hammer.

Poor guy...

Donald has to shout "SHAZAM!" to transform into Thor.

Since he has come to rely on his hammer as part of his standard offense, he would definitely be set back without it.

However, he has shown that most (if not all) of his power is actually in him, and he would still have strength in the CM/BA class, so he would still be near the top of the ladder even w/out Mjolnir.

Since the OP mentioned it, I don't think he would do very well against Superman w/out his hammer but he would still do better than most other herald-levelers.
