Pretty much unless I've got the wrong impression of him all these years.
Maybe he's not a warrior god and just whispers to his hammers to do all the work.
I can't wait to see the rest of his heroing career where he just tells his hammers to fly and hit, fly and hit, fly and hit 99% of the time. That would be the awesomest.
Then again I could be wrong.

Because we have seen that one doesn't need to throw the hammers for it to fly.
The text itself merely said that Thor sent the hammer. Previously, we've see them being sent without any throwing.
Moreover, it was based on people saying the preceding panel showed him twirling his hammer just before it flies.
But if you look closely, you'll see there's nothing attaching the hammer to the planet. So we're missing panels in between. And that was the main piece of proof, lol.
I see what youre saying about the chain. But what reason do we have to believe Thor mentally commanded the hammer to start flying, instead of just throwing it like he almost always does? i mean wouldn't it be very out of character for thor to NOT have physically thrown the hammer?
And I don't think it's biased. Thor is literally tongue tied around She Hulk, for example. Has no clue how to talk to women - even though,you know, he used to date Jane.
. Used to walk on the sun, but now would get killed. Mopes around mourning the loss of his arm and hammer.
Celey even messaged Aaron about how he was writing Thor's character all wrong, lol. And now, he's asserting that Aaron takes Thor's history into account?
But i could just as easily call the idea that he mentally commanded the hammer to preform this feat an "extraordinary claim", because it contradicts what is in character for thor- regardless of aaron, everything thors done up to this point still counts.
Except it doesn't contradict Thor as written by Aaron. As Aaron contradicts himself.
You can't just gloss over and say 'regardless of Aaron'. Thor never needed Mjolnir to tell him how to act, what to do. Yet, Aaron clearly writes Thor as needing/wanting Mjolnir. Even though this contradicts what's in character for Thor.
So there is indeed precedence for contradiction of character.
There isn't one for Thor throwing a hammer (even Mjolnir) so hard that it tows a planet.
We see him summoning hammers. After he throws them, they still return to his hand. We even see the hammer in THIS very issue breaking him free from prison, lol.
He can command them mentally. And does so in this issue.
Him being able to command them has always been a staple.
So how many times has thor mentally commanded the hammer to specifically preform throwing or pulling feats under aaron? once we have that number we can weigh it against the amount of times he's physically thrown the hammer under aaron.
then we'll know which type of feat is more in character from him under aaron.
