Thor: Love And Thunder - 9 Things From The Comic You Need To Know

5. It's All Gorr's Fault

The Dark World's Malekith may have been the main antagonist of Mighty Thor, but there's no way he's returning to the big screen. No, Thor's closing chapter deserves a threat far greater.

Although the Odinson encountered Gorr years before Jane Foster would become the Goddess of Thunder, the villain still plays a pivotal role in both Thors' arcs; the former because it's his proclamation that renders him unworthy, and the latter because, without Gorr, Foster would've never wielded Mjolnir.

The God Butcher, as he's known by to the Asgardians, is a formidable foe and one of the most exciting threats introduced to Marvel in years. He's one inextricably linked to the symbiotes - with his famed weapon, the necro-sword, forged from the alien race of shapeshifters - and while Thor possesses a storied and vast gallery of rogues, Gorr might just about break into the top five.

For those who don't know, Gorr was raised on a famine-stricken and desolate planet that worshipped the gods of the Ten Realms. His life was defined by death, but when he saw a Celestial fall from heavens, he resolved that the gods weren't as immortal as he was led to believe, and resolves to exact his revenge - no matter how long it takes.

Worth and responsibility are two concepts wedded to the concept of Thor, and Gorr is the perfect figure with which to realise them.
