10 Characters Who Broke Thor's Hammer
7. Perrikus - Thor Vol. 2 #10 (1999)
When Thor was still a child, Odin sent his scout, Lonkarr, to explore uncharted regions of the universe. During his travels, Lonkarr discovered Narcisson - a realm populated by an inverted version of the Asgardians called Dark Gods. After Lonkarr killed the wife of Narcisson's leader, Perrikus, the Dark Gods vowed never to rest until Asgard was reduced to nothing.
Unable to defeat Narcisson's forces, Odin had Perrikus sealed away in a remote section of the cosmos. When he broke free, his forces invaded Asgard and had Odin imprisoned. By the time Thor learned of Perrikus' invasion, the Dark God had already seized the entire realm.
Thor attempted to make short work of the tyrant by hitting him with Mjolnir's God Blast. Not only did the attack have little effect on Perrikus, he sliced Thor's hammer in two with his scythe.
Ironically, losing Mjolnir helped save Thor's life. During this time, Thor changed into a human called Jake Olson when he wasn't holding his hammer. When Mjolnir was destroyed, Thor reverted to his human form, giving Perrikus the false impression that the thunder god had fled. This gave Thor enough time to form a plan to defeat the Dark Gods.
