Wonder Woman Vs Thor

Christ.

The feat/fight is abundantly clear to anyone who can read and comprehend both text and art. And somehow, it's still being picked apart and dismissed for the dumbest reasons.

Looks to me that they were hitting each other so hard that they were cracking a moon and a planet from the impact of their strikes. Not literally many worlds just a moon and a planet.

Not too shabby, tho.

No. On panel all we saw was the planet's crust starting to crack and a moon about to shatter till Thor stopped it.

The narrator was using hyperbole. Unless you can provide a scan showing us the number of planets around them as they battled so we can get an idea of how many of them were shattered if the narrator wasn't using flowery language and hyperbole.

Still it was redonkulous! The whole book was a feat tour de force. Shattering celestial bodies through indirect damage, preventing an inhabited moon from getting destroyed by pushing it back together and "cauterizing" it with his lightning, fighting inside a sun, going toe to toe mano a mano against a being who killed and enslaved countless pantheons of gods (and looked good), showing ridiculous damage soak as seen from him continuing to pound on Gorr while being stabbed to death....

Hmmmm. So far, no Superman fans have posted yet. Are you Thorbags quivering in yer boots about how they'll interpret the scans? ;-)

They're plotting your destruction. Oh yes, just you wait...

I'm glad Thor is getting the love.

Dammit ZF! Can't you see that I'm trying to start a war here?! What're you, a forum hippie or something?!?! Make war not love, man!

😛

Zack's not a member of Kal Queda.

One thing that is bothering me, tho is why ppl assume that when Thor said:

"That's no empty moon"

Is that he meant "empty (false)", "moon (true)".

Instead of "empty moon" (false). Meaning: inhabited planet.

Especially when the narration said:

"Thus did the norse god of thunder come to be worshiped on a scarred world in a distant corner of space"

Just a thought.

Wrong thread.

I took it as Thor confirming "Hey, that's not just a lifeless world I can let be wrecked in the aftermath of my battle". His actions further confirm that.

I honestly don't know why or how people would assume it was just a barren and lifeless rock when faced with the dialogue and art.

Sloppy writing? Operator616 pointed out that the writer also used the words "omniverse' and "universe" interchangeably.

Bad writing, maybe, but that doesn't disqualify the possibility of it being more of a planet than a moon. As while Thor's words might be vague, the narration is pretty clear. And in these forums, narration > character comments.

world  [wurld]
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: planet, globe

Just seems like there is more evidence pointing to it as being as a planet than a moon.

Thor , pretty easily.

Narration also made it clear that most of the time he/she/it was just retelling legends and stories. So we have to keep that in mind too.

"Thus did the norse god of thunder come to be worshiped on a scarred world in a distant corner of space"

Doesn't sound like a "retelling" of a legend to me. More like a reason why there was a legend in the first place. It's pretty obvious thru both art and narration.

Otherwise, you might as well just throw the whole comic out the window and say "the whole thing never happened cuz it was just a retelling of a legend/story".

No one is saying it never happened. I'm just saying hyperbole and flowery language were used throughout the comic.

It was pretty clear to shift through what was hyperbole and wasn't wasn't. The Thors striking with the fury of a million suns or whatever is certainly hyperbole. The speculation on Gorr's weapon and its origins was left open ended (likely because Aaron will explain this in the pen-ultimate or final chapter).
