Prince **Thor Odinson** is a superhero from *Marvel Comics*. He appeared in the 46th episode of DBX, Thor VS 100 Pikachu, where he fought against Pikachu and 99 of its kind from the *Pokémon* series. He returned for the 78th episode, Vegeta VS Thor, where he fought against Vegeta from the *Dragon Ball* series.

## History

Thor Odinson is a man quite different than the one described in Norse Mythology, as he was conceived between Odin, the All-Father of Asgard, and Earth's Elder Goddess, Gaea, with the intention of creating the strongest man in the universe, as well as bringing an end to the cycle of Ragnarok. To further ingrain this status, Thor was granted his iconic hammer, Mjolnir, a tool that can either create or destroy and a test of his rite to the throne of Asgard. In order to teach him appreciation of humanity, Odin briefly stripped his son of his godhood and banished him to Earth in a human body under the name of Donald Blake. Thor would soon learn humility and grew to love Earth and its people, eventually helping found the superhero team known as the Avengers. He was, of course, welcomed back among the ranks of Asgard, becoming it and Earth's mightiest warrior.

## Notes

1. ↑ While many believe that Thor originates in the Silver Age comic *Journey Into Mystery Vol.1 #83* in 1962, the character actually made his debut in a cameo in the Golden Age comic *Venus Vol.1 #11*, which released 12 years earlier.
