    Worthy QOTD
    Question Of The Day

    Major Spoilers Question of the Day: The Worthy Edition

    Matthew PetersonBy Matthew PetersonApril 17, 20205 Comments1 Min Read

    From his very first appearance in ‘Journey Into Mystery’, Thor’s hammer has been enscribed with a verse that explains that ANYONE who would be worthy can life the hammer and possess the power of the Thunder God.  The occasions upon which this has happened aren’t really common though, even if you take into account the extended runs of Eric Masterson and Jane Foster, and most importantly, there has been little explanation of what it truly MEANS to be worthy of the power.  Wonder Woman has shown herself to fit the bill, as have Captain America and a couple of others, but with such a vague category, one has to wonder whether the likes of Luke Skywalker would be worthy to heft Mjolnir.  Could Goliath The Gargoyle, or even River Tam?  Indeed, it’s the kind of thing that might spark some today’s judgemental query…

    The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) may not know what worthy is, but would be quite entertained to see Randus Duthane wielding the power of Thor, asking: What fictional character who hasn’t already wielded the hammer of Thor would you deem to be worthy to lift Mjolnir?

    Once upon a time, there was a young nerd from the Midwest, who loved Matter-Eater Lad and the McKenzie Brothers... If pop culture were a maze, Matthew would be the Minotaur at its center. Were it a mall, he'd be the Food Court. Were it a parking lot, he’d be the distant Cart Corral where the weird kids gather to smoke, but that’s not important right now... Matthew enjoys body surfing (so long as the bodies are fresh), writing in the third person, and dark-eyed women. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: Fear! Surprise! Ruthless efficiency! An almost fanatical devotion to pop culture! And a nice red uniform.

      Here’s a fun one, how ’bout Ellen Ripley?

      “GET AWAY FROM HER, YOU B*TCH!” …but with thunder/lightning powers and a hammer.
