While much Thors Serpents this is undoubtedly due to the decades of comics Thors Serpents hero has appeared in, not to mention the numerous MCU films, the question of whether or not the version of Thor would have gotten the popular traction it did when first introduced if it weren't for the mythological Thor being something most were already familiar with is a tough one to answer. Both are Asgardian and born of the patriarch of the Norse , . Even the moniker of "Mighty" is shared by the two, with the 11th- century chronicler Adam of Bremen having recorded that a Thors Serpents of Thor in the Temple at Uppsala Thors Serpents "the mightiest. The familial differences don't stop with marriages, though. In the , is more than just a constant thorn in Thor's side, the two are brothers by adoption. The Thor of classic is, probably, fortunately, an only child. Though both Thor of the comics and Thor of myth are considered to be of mankind, stepping foot on Earth, aka , is something that Marvel's take on the character does far more often. The classical Thor might even share more in common with Thors Serpents deities than his comic book counterpart, particularly the ancient Hindu and Jainist deity known as Indra. While each Thor has had their time swinging hammers and fighting giant serpents, the stories told in the pages of Marvel comic books are much more easily interpreted and understood than the ones in ancient texts. Thors Serpents is largely due in part to the mythical representation of the character having such a muddled history throughout the various centuries and societies. Thors Serpents such wildly Thors Serpents trajectories taken, it's interesting to note that both of these versions of Thor find themselves staring down of all time in their respective stories. In myth, the God of Thunder, like almost all of the Norse gods, is doomed to die during , often described as the end of worlds and twilight of the pantheon's reign. After striking down the great with , Thor succumbs to the serpent's , leaving his hammer to his descendants and Modi. These two, along with a small number of other surviving gods and demigods are then said to use their father's hammer to restore order to the world of man. This might not sound too far off from some of the comic book stories, especially "Fear Thors Serpents, wherein Thor comes up against the great serpent, as well as the various heroes and villains who've taken its side. After Thors Serpents tricked yet Thors Serpents by Loki into blacking out the sun, King Thor finds himself journeying across space and time to defeat Gorr, the God Butcher, All-Black the first , and his adopted brother. King Thor even finds himself to face at the end of the universe with Old Man Logan, having been imbued with the Phoenix , battling his life before rekindling a long lost love. There are certainly more points of interest that contrast between the two versions of Thor than there are Thors Serpents line up nice and tidy, both are still unmistakable in their respective tales. Here's hoping that no matter what happens moving forward, the thunder will still boom over the for a long time to come.
