I'm pretty sure that's exactly what Odin said.

All he said is that his wounds would be gone by morn. Not that the entire fight was cyclic in nature.

At least now we have a clear answer regarding Thor and the Odinpower.
yes but it brings speculation on several incidents. The destroyer fight should not have been a problem if he had the odin power. I have seen Odin rip the soul out of the destroyer before with little effort.

I get the feeling we haven't seen the last of Bor. The comic makes it pretty clear hes not dead.

I definetly understand where yor coming from, but i think thor is uneasy about using it, and maybe the fact that odin created the destroyer might help?

thor

This latest Thor issue was a very good story. Seeing some backstory on Odin and his father Bor. The Thor issues are going to get better.

All that was made clear was.... Odin = Ass. Still a great character though. Nice to know he created man, but as I said, this was previously hinted at.

Gods of the Artic were also said to have created man and ruled the Earth until they were banished. Meh! couple months someone else will be the cause of the creation of man

As I've mentioned previously, Marvel U humans have at least six different 'canon' origin stories.

None are really given any precedence over the others.

Month's of claiming that Current Thor was above top tier and now that its proved it doesn't feel as good as I thought it would.

Just read Thor 7, this run is just getting better and better imo.
Nice seeing Odin again without having him back, nice seeing has back story. Definitely my favorite Marvel title atm.

Marvel has still been vague about his power limitations, being skyfather or higher. Only thing they've definitely cleared up is him being bulletproof for sure.
Also could be because JMS, when he gets someone like Hyperion or Silver Surfer to write, likes to make them sickly powerful. Thor's following that pattern.

So this new thor series is worth checking out ?

*goes off to find volume 1 annual*

i just finished reading all of thor's latest series [the 85 issue on, not the current,] and i have to say i didn't care for disassembled very much. the resolution was a good story, though i already knew what happened, but oeming taking over for jurgens in telling that "final" thor story didn't feel right; in writing or any other sense.

interesting series, all-in-all, though. but geez, how many times do you have to fight the destroyer before you realize there's a problem?

Then it would'nt be the latest series its actually the one set before this new series that is out now.

Hater.

I liked Disassembled, got to see Fenris and Durok again.

Not that it would kill Thor to fight someone who's appeared outside his own series for once....

I like it. The situation brings some comical moments, Thor has some cool interactions with Donald Blake and vice versa, hammers, cake, little Odin back story.

I dont get it....When is Thor's story taking place...after WWH?

Now Marvel's top 4 (Thor,Silver Surfer,Hulk,Sentry) are utterly powerful. Thks to Sentry...u recently saw Bob quickly thrashed Classic Thing in Mighty Avengers. Thing and Hulk always made a good slugfest no doubt Hulk has adv but not early. Thor and Hulk strength matched. Thor and SS stalemated. Now all are powered up...Classic Thor was needed to be too...thru Odinpower. It was meant for him.

i know that, thanks.

as for ragnarok, i ultimately liked how he ended the "cycle," despite it being oeming's plot which seemingly became a "resolution" to the odin/thor relationship out of nowhere. it just felt like i was reading a different story, which was odd, having read the first eighty-plus issues under a different writer's pen in about a two-week span of time. also, considering valkyrie hadn't shown up at all in the previous issues of thor, and then got some prominent mention during ragnarok, i thought it was like oeming was trying to push his ideas of what should've happened in the series into the finale.
