The Mighty Thor: Comics Vs Mythology

The greatest part about reading myths is that we get to see them all the time when it comes to comic books and movies about them. Thor a superhero that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. He is based on the Norse Mythological god of the same name, is the Asgardian god of thunder and possesses the enchanted hammer Mjolnir, which grants him the ability of flight and weather manipulation amongst his other super powers,







The Norse interpretation of him does not depict him of having the exact same abilities, but he is still said to have mystical powers granted to him. He is portrayed as not being the brightest of the Aesir gods, however his tales are legendary in the fact that he is powerful warrior.
