10 Things Everyone Always Gets Wrong About Thor

9. His Only "Long-Term" Enemy Is Loki

When you think of Thor's enemies, 99% of people immediately think of Loki.

While this isn't wrong in any way - especially because of the mythological rivalry to two hold - it also isn't entirely true. Although many of Thor's original enemies have fallen to the wayside over the years, such as Zarko, the Tomorrow Man, or the ever originally named Lava Man, a lot of his original foes have also stood the test of time.

Even some villains who cease to be Thor's enemies still feature in newer Marvel comics, through fighting other superheroes. For example, the Absorbing Man features in Old Man Logan, and Radioactive Man features in the fourth volume of Black Panther.

Loki has undeniably one of the most interesting dynamics in terms of his rivalry-that-sometimes-has-sibling-loyalty shtick, but that isn't to say he is the only good villain to come out of Thor's comics - just that he's the only one people really remember.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
