20 Mind-Blowing Facts You Didn't Know About Thor

1. Mjolnir Wasn't His First Weapon

Before being deemed worthy to wield Mjolnir, Thor used Jarnbjorn, a giant axe with the power to cut through almost anything (something which backfired on Thor when Malekith the Accursed recently used it to chop off his arm). Thor used Jarnbjorn throughout the ninth, tenth, and eleventh century, but lost it following a battle with Apocalypse. No longer able to use Mjolnir, Thor is once again equipped with the axe he used as a youngster, and it makes for a very cool visual. It's indestructible and can even deflect powerful energy blasts. Here's hoping it ends up making an appearance in the Thor: Ragnarok movie, eh? Did you enjoy this article? Share your thoughts below in the comments thread.
