Thor: Love And Thunder - 10 Things You Need To Know About Christian Bale's Gorr The God Butcher

2. Gorr Isn't The Only God Butcher

Gorr the God Butcher
Marvel

After Gorr's apparent demise, you'd assume Thor could close that chapter in his life. But it's never that simple in comics. Because his weapon, the All-Black, is virtually indestructible, Thor knew it was only a matter of time before someone used it to become the new God Butcher.

And if there is a god-killing weapon in the cosmos, there is NO WAY Thor's devious stepbrother Loki wouldn't try and claim it for himself. Millions of years in the future, Loki bonded with the All-Black so he could finally rid Asgard of his sibling. Yes, he's still trying to murder his brother after all this time. He keeps losing but you have to admire his determination.

Like all of his schemes, Loki did not get the results he desired after merging with the All-Black. Using the weapon awakened Gorr's consciousness, allowing him to take control of the All-Black once more. After an epic battle that collapsed stars and levelled solar systems, the All-Black was ripped from Gorr yet again. Gorr's mind was wiped, ridding him of his hatred of gods, allowing him to live in peace... for now.
