Looking at upcoming issues and previews, Thor will still be around but using Jarnbjorn instead. I guess he loses the right to Mjolnir as result of his actions in the past when he enchanted Jarnbjorn out of pride and has now caused the death of a Celestial and previously the Earth. I don't think this will last very long though, just like Steve Rogers no longer being the cap'n won't last. Things change, but seem to always return to formula, and now with the movies acting as a major interest boom the comics like to ride on those interests. Good examples: The Avengers teases Thanos and then Thanos is suddenly brought back from the dead, the Amazing Spider-Man uses The Lizard and then in the comics Lizard becomes the main villain for a stretch (same for ASM2 with Electro), and I'm sure that when the movie is close to releasing Apocalypse will become a world-shattering villain again for the comics. So while this new character (or not so new apparently) may stick around after Thor reclaims his right to use Mjolnir, they'll probably be like Beta-Ray Bill where they get their own version of Mjolnir, but not the original. Hopefully it's some good reading and maybe, just maybe, we might see a figure out of it. Though I would feel hurt that we see a brand new character in figure before one of many more deserving older characters.
