Clothed in the power that comes with the title.

(...) the powers befit of the All-Father of Asgard. All added to my own.

Give Thor a hundred upgrades and maybe he'll be able to hold his own against the likes of Night Trasher and Prowler.

Maybe.

Did they skip the moment he got Alfather powers?

The rules have changed.

The origin or Mjolnir proves that.

30% of the reason I enjoyed comics were continuity....Reading something new and being oh wow, that’s how that ties into story X from before was a lot of fun. Or if not knowing, using the editors note to trace down another story.

Now it’s just word vomit.

The OF is passed when Odin dies. That’s why the All-Mothers didn’t get it when they ruled or why Balder didn’t when he did.

Maybe the rules changed, but as it stands, you’re an idiot.


Donny Cates confirmed that Thor has full Odin power though.

Odin Force Thor gets imprisoned by plants.

Keep crying, retarded thorbag.

As if we needed any confirmation.

That's exactly what being an All-Father means.

Anyway, yes, he did:

Nrama: You mentioned the firepower Thor will have to bring to take on the Black Winter. He's probably the strongest Avenger right now -

Cates: Probably? Probably? Get out of here with that probably! [laughs]. Right now he's got the Odinforce and the Power Cosmic along with the powers that befit the God of Thunder – I don't know there’s many beings in the Marvel Universe that could top that.

How about an interesting storyline for once.
Does Cates say anything about that?

Thor’s power level is obviously being ignored for the sake of the story, upgrade or not. That’s what happens when you include him (or any more powerful character) on a team. Unless that sword is some kind of high level artifact, or some shit.

Bingo. And this is what I've been saying all this time.

Give too many upgrades, and writers write themselves into a corner - look at Kyle with the Ion entity. Makes everyone defunct, especially in team books.

Either your team mates get written up to your level (see Batman with the JLA) or you get jobbed out and upgrades are flat out ignored to ensure everyone gets to shine.

This is dependent on the skill of the writer, of course.

Tbh, I think it's a bit of both in this case.

Thor might be getting jobbed-out to some extent(like he almost always does outside of his own titles), but I also think Hulkling's sword is intended to be pretty OP.

Susan cloaks the F4, plus their ship, against Kree/Skrull scanners and visible light, and makes it look effortless.

Cool, but...

Wilson Fisk:

More of a Daredevil viilian, or a Punisher villian?

Daredevil, obviously.

the issue also said that franklin is still one of the most powerful beings in the universe, even though he barely has any power left.

Sabertooth started out as an Iron Fist villian.

Fisk has been between them forever. And Spidey, of course.

He was the final boss in that awesome Punisher beat 'em up.

Looking at MAX, I think Fisk is a lot more interesting opposite Castle.

They probably mean his raw potential?

It's only a matter of time before he "recharges" or whatever.

Kingpin started out as a Spider-Man villain.

Then became Daredevil's nemesis.

Don't get me wrong, he appeared in some stories with the Punisher, but he's usually portrayed there as an obstacle Frank can't get through.

In Franklin's case, "depowered" is relative. He's still > Hulk, Thor, and Surfer:

In other words... Franklin is Franklin.

Or... as the recent Immortal Hulk issue taught us...

Franklin is Franklin is Franklin.

why is franklin's hair black now? i'm guessing it's because he lost his super saiyan power?
