I didn't want to argue with him because he always seems like a genuinely nice guy, but that answer is pretty frustrating. I also asked him once if the female Thor concept was something he came up with on his own or if the editorial dept. told him they wanted Thor to be a woman to add diversity. Remember this was the same time that Sam Wilson took up the mantle of Captain America and there were many changes going on with other characters around this same time too. He said that he came up with it himself and pitched the idea but they timed it out to coincide with other characters being diversified. I have his entire run of Thor: God of Thunder and the Jane Foster series. He's one of my favorite comics writers, but I agree she should have a different name. I thought Odinson would use the Ultimate Thor's hammer and reclaim his Title by the end of Unworthy Thor, but that wasn't the case.

Unworthy was a good mini series !! I also was hoping he took the hammer. Judging from the end of the last issue, it looks like ultimate thor might be making an appearance or possibly a new thor series.

On another note. Found this guy today ! Completely forgot about the TRU exclusive Groot til i saw him and grabbed him up.
