The irony when this author went on to write arguably even worse feminist comics than Thor was after this. ;_;
I’m talking about Princeless and it’s glorious “strong independent black woman” who in the first pages of the book went on a tear about how fair means white(never mind that it also means beautiful and the association with being pale is a later function of the word) and then essentially gave her tacit approval to the suitor, who had done nothing wrong outside calling her fair, getting eaten by a dragon.
You suck, Whitley.
Dunno, but the point still stands- Titania would not take a fall in the name of girlpower/feminism, to have her do so is wildly out of character.
Didn’t Titania almost kill She hulk one time?
Sir Pelusa, I don’t have problem with a female Thor.
For the people complaining about how the norse god wasn’t a woman? He was also not blonde(red beard)and he was stock. Heck, the Volstagg character from the Thor comic would be much closer if he lost a bit of chub. Her having the title isn’t really a problem to me, even if there is the problem of it not really being a title- and the characters wielding the weapon not being actually called Thor, just having the powers.
It’s the way that whole sequence is written that is garbage. Thor’s lines are terrible(STRONG INDEPENDENT WOMAN), and while I know there were people on the net with generally negative opinions, prepping up a strawman you can knock down is pretty much the worst way you can handle that.
Oh, but the worst part? Titania.
“I’ll let you beat me this once because feminism!”
Part of Titania’s whole deal is being extremely violent in her defense of the title of world’s strongest woman(which she still isn’t, She-Hulk is). She would not take a fall because of GIRL POWAH- in fact, she’s the last character in the whole Marvel Universe who would!
I would hardly call sexism an “inconsequential thing in the comic industry” considering how major of a subject it is these days. As others in this comment thread have pointed out, here it’s handled significantly better than the ridiculous attempts at a pro-feminism message in most mainstream comics. I didn’t find it “ham-handed” at all, quite the opposite in fact. To use the posted Thor comics as an example, It manages to get it’s message across in three panels instead of dragging out a straw-man for the main character to beat up for several pages, for example.
Its ham-handed inclusion in this comic actually makes the whole issue a mess. I didn’t like it. At this part, I actually was laughing because I thought the author was making a joke about how comic geeks are always whining about those inconsequential things in the comic industry. That’s how good his writing was!
Look how cute Spike is when he notices they’re talking about him. He must feel strange…
Those were people who got Thor’s powers through the hammer.
They didn’t ‘become new Thors’.
People complaining and whining a female Thor when there have been at least 6 different Thors, including Storm of the X-Men and an Anthro Alien Horse have wielded Mjölnir

Yeah, I actually really liked this part of the comic. The subtext might be lost on some of the younger readers, but the message is a great one.
I do wonder whether the comic reaches the target demographic of girls, since it seems a little more free to appeal to the adult fanbase. I don’t know if they’ll pick up on the subtext but it’s still neat that it’s there.
Mind blown.
Huh. Never thought of it that way. I figured Humdrum got turned into a dragon in an issue we never saw.
This is Inception levels of meta!
But apparently the pony Humdrum got turned into a dragon for one issue. And since he was the smartest of the lot in the Power Ponies annual, I can only imagine what he’d do with fire breath.
Might have made a better dragon sidekick than Spike.
nope, is a pony
They must have read Spike’s copy!
I think it’s just a reference to the old cliche of dragons kidnapping princesses and being slain by knights, which from a dragon’s perspective is probably kinda ‘racist’.
