I'll never get tired of Thor being a dick to Tony.

If Tony dug out the stone under his foot at an angle such that Mjolnir would logically fall off his foot what would happen

Or, you know, just get out of the armor.

Edit: Thor should totally keep on being a dick to Tony though. Feels like he let him off too easy for the whole cloning thing.

Thor just made an angry speech and hit him with lightning once, right? He should have been much harder on him. I blame Hollywood.

He spent an entire issue beating the poo poo out of him, then Tony was so scared and beat up that he gave Asgard diplomatic immunity from the registration act and ran with his tail between his legs.

Then Thor was a huge dick to him for like a year any time they met, until they bonded over murdering Sentry.

I guess Thor really hates paperwork then, considering the form would read "Thor. Secret Identity, also Thor. You idiot"

Well, when he's not working construction at least. Which was already a SHIELD Registered identity anyways :v:

Donald Blake? But you forget, the registration act would also have made every Asgardian essentially a slave to the US government to be used in military action as they see fit.

I'm still standing by the assumption that Thor hates paperwork though, that still works either way.

When was the last time Thor used the Donald Blake identity? Also, that wasn't so much a secret identity as another actual dude whose psyche he was piggy backing on.

A blonde giant named Sigurd Jarlson, yep, that's gotta be Spider-man's alias. Now dammit where's the panel of the foreman jumping to that conclusion? The best I've found is "Sigurd" demonstrating how infallible his disguise is. (Pic rehosted from here, unsure of source beyond Simonson's run on Thor.)

It was and it wasn't. Originally Donald Blake was just the guy with the hammer to become Thor, but then it was retconned into being an identity invented by Odin and Donald Blake was just Thor enchanted to be human and have false memories, and then when they retired the secret identity altogether (because once they'd removed the limitation of having to hold on to the hammer to be Thor it was just an excuse to have Thor slum around Midgard pretending to have Spider-man problems, and therefore useless) whoever wrote that forgot Donald Blake didn't exist at all and made him a separate person to be put on a bus.

Well sure, but Donald Blake was still a huge part of the Thor comeback until Fraction went and turned the guy evil and killed him for no apparent reason.

Actually JMS explained it as Odin's spell that made Donald Blake not exist any more stopped working with Ragnarök, so he just spontaneously came into existence again as his own being, since Thor was gone.

This is the only panel I've been able to find, from Thor #344.


I think your pic is from Thor #341, when the Sigurd Jarlson identity was first used.

Side note: Is it the artist or the letterer that does sound effects? Because Walt Simonson always seems to have the best ones.

I believe it's the letterer. John Workman's letters perfectly complement Simonson's art, and Workman was the first letterer, in my own comics-reading history, to make me think there was anything other than plain utility to the craft.

Oh, and I'm not trying to open a can of worms, but if you want to see some of the best lettering in your life, Dave Sim's your fellow:

I doubt there's a hard rule about sound effects. Some artists integrate them into their drawings so well they have to be doing it themselves. I don't have the pages handy to post but anybody who's read Batman: Snow knows what I'm talking about.

Yeah, unless the sound effects are *really* integrated into the art (a la Quitel's Batmobile panel that I can't find a good source of), it's the letterer.
