Infinity War has been a hot topic lately. Thor even got a new hammer! For those that only watch the mov๊ies though, they may have been confused to see other fans recognizing the🌜 hammer, Stormbreaker, from the comic books.
There are many ꧒versions of Thor, almost as many Thor’s as there are realities (which it a lot!). For every Thor (and even more), there is his hammer. Commonly known as Mjolnir, this iconic superhero weapon was inspired by the true myths of Thor in Norse mythos. Of course the myth has its differences, since it was made due to Loki rath꧑er than Odin.
With Infinity War, the movies may be racking up their own count of hammers! The comics h꧑owever, have gone above and beyond in hammers. We could open an Asg🐻ardian hammer shop with this list. Not worthy? Have a Zombie Thor hammer. Are you tiny? Have Throg’s hammer.
Hardcore comܫic book fans have probably given some amount of thought to which hammer is the most powerful. Through our resea🃏rch, there are a lot of varied opinions, as there are pros and cons to all of them.
To save you a headache, we made 🗹a list of some of Thor’s notable hammers throughout all the comic books, TV series, and movies. Maybe some or most of these are hammer versions you didn’t even kno✃w existed! Here we have our Ranking 20 Of Thor's Great Hammers From Weakest To OP.
20 ♑ Zombie Thor’s Version
Earth-2149 has a zombie Thor! On this earth, the undead have🦩 taken over. It’s pretty tragic, as one of the last deeds Thor did before he turned undead is that he destroyed a teleportation device so the zombies wouldn’t infect other realities.
Zombie Thor, as you can probably guess, can no longer wield Mjolnir. Zombies are unworthy to carry a godly weapon. However it seems they have some intellect left, as zombie Thor crafts himself a new hammer.
That 🦂said, this is probably his weakest hammer. It’s a cinderblock attached to a pipe. That’s as basic as weapons can get. No enchantments, no magic. Stronger than average mortals can probably pick this weapon up. I am confused (though I have not read this version), about the level of intelligence the zombies have if Thor actually built his own weapon.
If you are ever curious what your favorite Marvel character will l✅ook like as a zombie, this series is w🃏orth a look. You get to see zombie T’Challa, Deadpool, Spider-Man, Captain America, Hulk, Wolverine, Doctor Strange, Venom, Storm, Iron Man, Ghost Rider, and even Howard the Duck.
This infection ♏d🥂oesn’t exist just on earth, but across the whole universe. Once the virus consumed all life and had no one else to eat, they time travelled to eat people! Smart zombies.
19 🅺 Thor's Unenchanted Hamme🌱r
The unenchanted hammer of Thor is in Earth-961212. The hammer itself isn’t magical, but its strikes are. Basically what I mean is, iꦺf you hear thunder, then that is Thor hitting 💯someone with this hammer.
Instead of worthiness, you just need intense strength to lift the hammer. In terms of other information, there is very little. In a way, this🉐 is probably nearly the same in terms of strength to zombie Thor’s hammer. I’ll say it’s a little better since this Thor can make cool thunder sounds. Sparks also fly when he hits something, so that’s also better. Thor still has his godlike strength, durability, and stamina as well.
The hammer’s first appearance was in Ti🌳meslip The Collection #1 and it came out in 1998. Thor uses this hammer to fight Frost Giants and the force of Hela. If I had to choose which hammer was better between this hammer and the zombie hammer, I’d say this one because the craftsmanship is prob🔯ably better (it wasn’t made by a zombie!).
This hammer sounds sort of classicalꦰ, so I’m going to guess it was made by dwarves like the original Mjolnir. But who can say?
18 ♎ Frogjolnir
That’s right, Frog Thor, also known as Throg! His real name is Simon Walterson, and he was cursed by a witch and turned into a frog because he failed to pay for her service for him to speak to his wife and child in the afterlife. He joined a clan of frogs and created Frogjolnir out of a sliver of the real Mjolnir. His frog 🌺name before he got his hammer was Puddlegulp.
He got to meet the real Thor, who was turned into a frog by Loki. That’s how he got the sliver of the real Mjolnir.
Toothgnasher, one of the mythical goats that pulls Thor’s chariot, kicked a sliver of the Uru steel of🍬f. It’s a weird goat, as it can be reborn if eaten unless his bones are broken. It’s also superhumanly strong to be able to damage Mjolnir. It can also fly.
The real question: does size matter for thiꦯs hammer? Well, in comparison to all the others, yes! It still has magic, so it’s not as bad as zombie Thor’s, but against all others, Throg would probably be toast.
The list of powers are super strength, super stamina, dense tissue, super durability, longevity, regenerative healing, and he has a telepathic link with all the other Pet Avengers. Yes, t🍷here are Pet Avenge🅷rs. You’re welcome.
17 🅰 ﷽ Disk Wars Version
Disk Wars is an anime featuring the Avengers comprised of Captain America, Iron Man, the Hulk, Thor, and Wasp. The plot 🦩centers around them joining forces with Spider-Man and a group of teens to foil Lo🍬ki’s world conquering quest.
The heroes we know and love are trapped in disks. Oh, I mean “Digital Identity Securement Kits.” The disks were originally meant to trap villains but instead it trapped heroes. It’s okay though because there are teenagers that can use the disks to release the h📖eroes (albeit for short intervals). So in a wa𒊎y, they just turned The Avengers into Digimon.
This🍸 anime had a ton of Marvel characters, as the ones mentioned are not even a fraction. But let’s just focus on Thor. His hammer in this show looks more futuristic than others. It is basically just Mjolnir, but different looking and trapped with Thor in a disk.
The teenager who has control over Thor’s disk is Hikaru Akatsuki. Each teen has a trait that bonds them to their hero. Hikaru and Thor’s commonality is kind of 🌄funny: They both have anxiety about their siblings. I think Thor’s anxiety is way more justified, because Hikaru is just fearful of losing his brother to a dangerous situation.
16 🍷 Ragnarök’s Version 💞
A cyborg clone of the hero Thor, Ragnarök has a similar appearance and abilities but uses them against the heroes. He first appeared in Civil War #3 by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven in 2006.
He was created when Thor was presumed fallen (even though that was the wrong assumption). Stark had the wonderful idea of making a clone with one of Thor’s hairs and combini🌳ng it with Stark technology. Thus ♕Ragnarök was made. What could go wrong?!
Ragnarök’s hammer, unlike Mjolnir, is not mജade of Uru. Instead it was created from vibran🌺ium and adamantium alloy. It can be picked up by anyone, so it doesn’t have that worthiness enchantment. Like Mjolnir though, the hammer can absorb and discharge lightning.
This version was beaten by the real Thor (along with Mjolnir) and Hercules, ✃so that makes it lose some points. Ragnarök does visit Earth-13584 and is deemed worthy to wield the actual Mjolnir, so that’s interesting but the version we are sticking to for this list is the first hammer he has.
Ragnarök hasn’t appeared in any films or TV shows, but he has appeared in video games like Marvel: Avengers Alliance. I think he’d be a cool villain to explo💙re in one of the TV shows or even in a mo๊vie.
15 ✨ Stormcaster 🐼
This is not to be confused with Stormbreaker, especially since Stormcaster was made by Loki. Ororo Munroe, also known as Storm, was its wielder, hence the hammer’s name! It originally appeared in 1985’s Uncanny X-Men Annual #9, by Chris Claremont and Arthur Adams.
Ororo became the Goddess of Thunder when she wielded Stormcaster for a time. She soon realized (thanks to Wolverine) this♍ was a manipulative plan of Loki’s to destroy the X-Men and 🌄gave up the hammer. Several years later, she got involved with the hammer again and it got destroyed by Mjolnir.
To make matters more confusing, this hammer is called Stormbringer in the universe of Earth 904. On Earth 1027, Storm actually gets Tarene’s hammer for a while. These hammers really get around, don’t they? These things are like trading cards. Maybeಞ someone should collect them all?
In terms of power, this hammer was basically another Mjolnir. However, it lost to the original, so that says something negative about its power. Its power is connected to Loki’s, which is why the hammer cannot be used against him. With that in mind, ma✤ybe we haven’t seen its full potential. There is a chance we will see more of it in the future, as the hammer somehow came back despite being destroyed.
14 𓄧 🔴 Perun’s Version
To get a little real, Perun’s character is from Slavic mythology. He’s their God of Th🐓under. He first appears in Captain America #352ౠ-353 back in 1989, and was created by Mark Gruenwald and Kieron Dwyer. He looked a lot like Thor too, wearing a similar red cloak and helmet.
Earth-1610 Perun acquired Thor's harness and gained similar powers to him. Like Thor, he has enhanced�🐻� strength, flight, the ability to manipulate weather, and is nearly invulnerable.
As for his hammer, he gets Mjolnir and a sickle because he’s into Soviet Russia.
It couldn’t possibly be that great because he got beaten by Vampire Hulk. Yes, Vampire Hulk. Due to the original Mjolnir being a holy object, it would’ve made Vampire Hulk explode so൲, this one still doesn’t measure up to the 𓄧original.
Perun of Earth-616, however, is very diff🍨erent. He’s the real deal and never really took Thor’s powers since he’s already a God. Perun of Earth-1610 used to be human, so that’s a big difference. However, very little is known about his war hammer, but I do know he also likes to wield an axꦆe. This Perun was drafted into working as an agent of the Russian government, becoming their equivalent to the Norse god Thor in the United States.
13 ♒ ❀ Medieval Mjolnir
Do you like renaissance fairs? Maybe viജsit Earth-37072 where a wizard has turned Ma꧃nhattan into a medieval dystopia. Once you enter, the memories of your modern life will be erased for a full-time experience!
If you somehow want to leave or reverse the mꦍagic, you may have to deal with medieval Thor. That’s right, the world is protected by twisted medieval versions of the Aꦇvengers! Medieval Thor first appeared in “Exiles” #56, by Tony Bedard and Jim Calafiore.
As for what he does🐈, he’s a guard for Zaraths’ palace, Ghost Rider’s demon w🌠ho has taken over the world. That’s most of what we’ve seen though. Presumably, his Mjolnir is similar in power to the original. The design is different though, as its handle looks like it was stolen from a weight you’d find in a gym. Surely other people see that too?
, as he collected a group interdimensional Exiles to stop the medieval Manhattan spell, causing Thor and Mjolnir to revert to normal. Because of that, we didn’t really get to see the medieval Mꦆjolnir in action. He did fight some Exiles when they tried to break into the palace, but that’s the most we💯 got to see.
12 Ear🧸t⛄h's Mightiest Heroes Mjolnir
The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes has two seasons and a micro-series.
This version of Mjolnir was crafted by Eitri, a dwarf king of Nidavellir. Like most of the others, it’s made of Uru and can ignite 𝄹lightening. Wielding it, Thor can fly and open portals. It can return to Thor if summoned and it’s good for both melee and ranged attacks. This hammer also has a worthiness enchantment made by Odin. Thor proved himself worthy during his exile on earth.
However, it’s not so powerful if you watch the show, as it has been stopped many different times. It’s been stopped by the Wrecker's crowbar, Radioactive ღMan's radiation blasts, the Enchantress' dark magic, Kang's futuristic weapons and shields, and Magneto's powers of magnetism. That’s a lot of barriers!
A little more about the show: we get a lot of Marvel characters like Hawkeye, Captain America, Wasp, Iron Man, Black Panther, Vision, Ant-Man, Hulk, and Absorbing Man. It’s from 2010 and, alhough it was not renewed for a third season, we got something just as good in 2013, a show called Avengers Assemble. There was also a four-issue limited series of comic books for The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.
11 M💞CU Hammer (Pre-Infinity War)🤡
Here is the hammer most people know, as it's from Thor’s movies! According to Odin, this version was made out of 🧸a dying star. I guess that’s a far simpler story than the original, which is made of Uru metal and had this whole history of being a terrible storm.
Odin’s oldest daughter, Hela, had this Mjolnir for a while. Hilariously, Vision had it for a bit as well. Odin has held it as well. Other than Thor, that’s basically it for who has been deemed worthy𝐆 enough.
As for its abilities, it has summon, high speed flight, density manipulation, energy blasts, and resurrection. Less overpowered than the original, but still decent. The first time we actually see this weapon was as a teaser after Iron Man 2.
The history of this hammer is far less fleshed out than some of these others. In fact, this hammer looks far moღre new and clean than the other versions. It looks to be steel-like inste༒ad of stone-like.
Thor, of course, loses this hammer and later gets Stormbreaker in Infinity War. Through𒅌 losing it, he discovers his inner power. So the hammer is more of an object of channeling that power than an object that is in itself powerful.
