I would imagine they're canon, especially considering how they were effective a "test run" for Fraction's Thor ongoing. Considering Fraction more or less reconciled the conflicting origins/mythos of the Asgardian cosmology by stating they're "living stories", I'm inclined to believe that they're canon, especially considering they were different Ragnarok cycles.
But yeah, Fraction tried a poor man's Morrison style story telling approach.

Link?They completely ignore most Thor continuity and seem to take place in a different Ragnarok cycle but a lot of Thor stories do that so whatever. And Matt Fraction has a habit of ignoring Thor continuity. His excuse is the same as Morrison's for the New Gods.
Does the 'Rage of Thor' take place in mainstream continuity?TomBrevoort
No, it's set in the same continuum as the other Thor one-shots we've done recently.
Glad that's settled.

facepalm
Rage of Thor is a completely different one-shot and is not part of Matt Fraction's trilogy. I am getting tired of correcting you. I feel like the babysitter of some mentally ill infant.
Not that it settles anything either way.

How about you prove that? Thor: Man of War is not a one-shot and part of a 3 part miniseries and it came out at like December 2008 while Rage of Thor came out on August 2010, nearly two years apart.
Okay, reported. Take your trolling out of the respect thread.
Yeah it's very meh, but ice passed through Wolverine too however, even in places where he should be Adamantium protected. What the f*ck is up with that ice?
I hope Thor doesn't turn into Hulk where his durability is replaced with a healing factor however. Feels a lot like he's headed down the same road that Hulk started on a decade ago. All it takes is one writer to push the envelope and it'd become the standard unfortunately.

Thor takes out a super amped Iceman imbued with the Apocalypse Power (Cheap Shot but still). Mystique stabs him (Another cheap shot) but despite the wound, he's only down, not out:
And her ice seems to cut through Logan as well, crazy as that sounds, so it's nothing to sneeze at.
Dude ofcourse it goes through Wolverine his bones are nearly unnbreakable not his skin. The ice when inside him probably chipped on his bones and just like cut through to the other side of his body.
