10 Things Everyone Always Gets Wrong About Thor
6. His Lore Is 100% Based On Mythology
With so much of Thor being based upon Norse mythology, figuring out where the similarities begin and end can be difficult at times. This isn't helped by the fact that basically all other iconic figures from norse lore - Sif, Odin, Heimdall, and almost any and every god or character related to a god - also exist in-universe.
But it is definitely worth remembering that this doesn't equate to 'everything is the same as in the mythology'.
In particular, the trend within norse mythology of male characters transforming themselves into animals - in order to have children with other animals - is generally absent from the pages of Thor's comics.
A very decent chunk of Thor's comic lore mirrors his mythological companion, but the ways in which they differ are pretty important to keep in mind, too.
