“No, it’s a myth, a myth!” he said.
“Yes?” she replied.
In more exciting comic book news, Marvel wants to make its lineup more gender-balanced, so they are retrofitting old characters. In October, Thor will be a woman.
On Twitter, FlannelJedi observes, “By my count, a woman has wielded the power of Thor 3 times so far- in official & What If? scenarios. Storm, Black Widow & Thora (Earth X).” The NY Daily News spells out Marvel’s other offerings, “In recent months, new titles have focused on veteran heroines Black Widow, She-Hulk, Captain Marvel and Elektra, as well as introducing series around a new Ms. Marvel character, whose secret identity is a Muslim American teenager from Jersey City. Marvel also launched an all-female “X-Men” title last year.“
I’m coming to believe that life is too short to worry about what comic books are saying.
Still, there’s a genuine myth where Thor goes on an adventure in drag. But it’s for devious purposes, and Loki’s idea.
heh
Like comic book deaths, this will last a year and then they’ll bring back the original.
