Marvel Characters - Thor

Thor is the powerful god of thunder who is the son of Odin. His father comes to the inclusion early in age that Thor needs to learn humility, and thus places him in the body of a human being (Donald Blake) on planet Earth. The doctor soon later finds Thor's hammer realizes later that he has the power to change into Thor and back again (for those who don't quite understand, it's sort of like how Roland from the Dark Tower series can change into Eddie by going through the door in the second book). Only much later will the real Donald Blake be able to return to his body, when Odin is satisfied with what Thor has become. The events that Thor had to go through made him an honorable, exalted and respected warrior.

Thor is also the son of the Earth Goddess Gaea, and thus Thor feels obligated to defend the planet and its people. While on Earth, he battles fierce villains including the Absorbing Man and the Enchantress. The main antagonist of the series is ultimately Loki, Thor's evil brother. However, Loki is quite genius, and even convinced the Silver Surfer to attack the thunder god, among others such as Ulik and Fafnir. Thanks to Loki though, the Avengers were formed - Loki used the dangerous Hulk to make Thor come out, and following this the Avengers were formed. Thor is one of the main and notable members and founders of the amazing team.

In the second volume of Thor, the god of thunder takes the throne of Asgard, and once he negativly looks at the Earth's people, he reshapes it in his own vision of what the world should be. After a battle is ensued because of this, guilt is thrusted toward Thor, and he resets Earth back to the way it was.
