Thor Fights The Elder Gods

- Immortal Thor (2023) Issues 1 and 2.
▸ In Norse myths, they called him Thunderer. Vuer has he been called, and Hloriddi. The Gods know him as Asgard's King, keeper of Mjolnir, hero of the tales. When injustice grips the Earth and ancient powers bring down the sky, he fights for those who cannot - and when the tale is done, we will know what that cost him. This is the story of THE IMMORTAL THOR.

Bummed that Donny Cates had to deal with some unfortunate stuff in his personal life, so he didn't get to finish his Thor Run. But Al Ewing's here, and Thor is wearing his classic suit, he's speaking like Shakespeare-adjacent, the covers are drawn by Alex Ross, and he just outsmarted a primordial god. This may be a run to rival his Immortal Hulk run.
Actually most are happy cates is gone from Thor didn't like the direction he was going AL is way better good to see Thor moving back up again
@@tyrannicaltypomichaeltesteryeah but we are all going to miss Thors drip.
I for one was looking forward to seeing the Donny Cates run. He started out hot with the Black Winter & Galactus storyline. @@tyrannicaltypomichaeltester
@hammerheadcorvette4 Yeah but then he went south real quick. He did well with Black winter but horrible with the rest.
i am happy cates is gone, his ideas are mid and he doesnt know how to end a story. this is probably going to be an actual good thor run after so many years
When I heard "Utgar" I went *straight* to the actual mythology. There is a story of "Utgard-Loki" and well... and he's a trickster type who gave Loki and Thor impossible challanges. The funniest one is Thor was given a drinking contest, and just couldn't win somehow.
He was *drinking the oceans to a measurable amount.* He was drinking basically the embodiment of the ocean as a drinking cup. Dude was so terrified of what they were capable that he kicks them out, and makes his home *magically dissapear.*
Edit: oh and he's a Frost Giant in the story. Not an Elder God (to my knowledge.)
Útgarða-Loki is not a frost giant, just a giant. Frost giants aren't really a thing (as a race) in Norse mythology. That's just something Marvel made up.
Oh... I just heard the metal cover of Destripando la Historia of that. Good stuff.
Yup. In the actual mythology Thor was given a 3 challenge. The other two is wrestling (or arm wrestle I don't really remember) an old lady and lifted a cat. Thor fail all three but it was revealed that the old lady was Death itself and the cat is The World Serpent.
14:00 Loki out here doing his best Rita cosplay 😅
The fact that Thor has the Power Cosmic, the Phoenix Force and the full totality of the All Power running through his veins is insane. The fact that Thor hit Toranos with a lightning blast with the force of the All Power behind it, and it did absolutely nothing to him is crazy. It goes to show you that the Utgard Gods are beyond the All Power. If this story goes the way I think it will, then Thor might get another upgrade to defeat Toranos and the rest of the Utgard Gods.
or we get to see him use the phoenix force to some degree
Gia daina is mother.
Pain is temporary, love temporary is growing with is growing ONe .
He doesn't have all the power of the Phoenix force, it's not like he's possessed by the actual phoenix force itself literally, and when did it ever say he still retained the power cosmic? Yeah.......none of what you said is correct
@@Alexander-Lionheart_1881 future King Thor gets PF when cosmic ronan wolverine gives it to him in his battle against a juiced up Dr. Doom. And he did have the power cosmic until he unleashed the totality of it to kill the Black Winter. And of course now he is in possession of the Odin force aka Thor force. All things considered he could be put in a position to attain powers beyond even Rune King Thor. Which would be pretty sweet. I still wish to see the Vision of the Black Winter come to pass. Thanos leading an army of the dead while wielding an infinity gem encrusted Mjolnir; and some say a destroyer arm/or All Black(knull the Symbiote God's weapon) refashioned as a gauntlet.
Thor's swirling of his hammer makes a pale reflection of the more real elder god of thunder 's wheel.
Underrated observation
Imho, Loki is getting this "good guy" treatment due to MCU's portrayal of the character and the fact that Tom Hiddleston is such a phenomenal Loki. He essentially made Loki a good person through sheer popularity and incredible acting.
"Woe to them that Call evil good and good evil" -KJV Holy Bible ❤❤❤
Is it me or dose it seem like Loki’s is trying to escape the entire marvel multiverse
Be cool if Loki broke into the DC Universe! ❤🎉😮
Loki looks like a David Bowie persona and I am 100% down for it.
This must be the Loki Stardust arc.
Loki’s Bizarre Adventure
Sounds like Loki is becoming the all powerful Plot Deviceo, master of everything!😅
Awesome video as always!
Rune King Thor probably gonna to return eventually.
Rob didn't show the sacrifice part for some reason but it seems Immortal Thor might go down the same route Rune King Thor did.
Ooooh is that a hint?
I thought Rune King Thor as well too.
I cannot contain my excitement for this run! I hope to see more from Rob on this one!
I must say this is shaping up to be a very kool story cant wait to see where this goes and im loving the all new Loki very kool indeed great video ! 👌✅⚡
I like that marvels given Loki a chance to be a good guy! And an important one at that!
Kind of cool to see Loki getting a new spotlight (tho it’s probs thanks to the new season of the show.)
With you 💯 on that, I just feel that low-key is runners course with being a bad guy and it would be awesome to see him as a good guy which were finally seeing… “I think?!!” Marvel has fooled with us before!
In Myth, Loki, along with many other Trickster gods, are also referred to as 'The Weaver of Stories'.
Anasi for example is one.
Hi Rob! Thanks man!
Awesome rob thanks for the uploads . What’s going on in green lantern comics ? 😂
What a great start to a run, can't wait to see how this plays out!
I’ve Loved your channel for years. Thought I was a huge comic fan but You’re the Neil deGrasse Tyson of comics man 100%. Amazing work
@@ComicsExpIained_ Man all your content is special appreciate what you do brother
I’ve Always like Thor’s story but it was missing something without his brother. Even in Loki’s mischief he was missed, they are two sides of one coin needed to break a cycle. Each incomplete without the other.
This Toranos seems like a reference to the Celtic god Taranis. He was the god of thunder and the sun(the wheel being a representation of the sun or fate in some cases in Celtic or Germanic belief). I find it interesting that with his status, he is larger than Thor, much like the Greek Titans are to the Olympians.
Nail on the head with that,very much seems like Utgard Thor and the rest of the ones in shadows or shadow council are basically being reshuffled and used as the Greek equivalent to the Titans
Immortal Hulk. Now, Immortal Thor. These are the type of Thor Stories that I've long wanted! 👊👊✊✊👏👏👌👌 I knew that the Cycle of Ragnarok had to return with the Elder Gods.
Every time I see a notification from here I feel like Rafiki; the king has returned!!!!
Yes, sire?
Wow that’s sick!
Whats interesting is basically Al Ewing is using the Shadow Elders or Council in a way that basically sets them up to be like the Titans in Greek Mythology. Its an interesting twist and Parallel but Im more curious to see if my guy can overcome these two challenges that awaits him
Thor hasnt been this good in a looong time
Rob covers thor comics i watch, its that simple
The utgard gods are becoming a good addition to the rogues gallery for Thor.
Dope
I love the god of stories stuff and the pairing of Loki and the Scarlet Witch.
🙌🏽wow
I feel like if you encase that God in adamantium mixed with uru and some other element the one from the white hot room you could imprison him and use him like Thor used the cosmic storm
Rob just played the new Mortal Kombat and using its terminology. “New God” “Elder God”
that’s gotta be the dopest loki design i’ve ever laid eyes on
Dang utgard, I wanna say that was something that came about in journey into mystery I think 97 or 98. Wow
@@ComicsExpIained_ scamming is bad
5:28 just roll me on in then 😂😂😂😂 ⚰️
Loki will get his own movie someday.
Loki Bowie-son, I like it
Cool.
I would not be surprised if the new "Loki" makeover makes its way to the MCU of the Loki series.
Ha, my first band was called Utgard! Black Metal, of course 😂
Thor: i must consult with the elder gods
Of course Loki is about to get a power up and important moments, Loki season 2 premiers Thursday.
Brightburn Request👿Beyond Omega Level: Kulan Gath!
Awesome story. They are even going that route in the MCU
By the elder gods!!!
Omg you end it like that 😮
Not gonna lie dude, when the title said "Elder Gods" I first thought of the ones from Mortal Kombat. LOL
I think lokis new form has to do with his elder god version. I think somehow he figured out how to harness his power, or merge with him or something. And he’s going to put thor through a bunch of bs to push him to get stronger so he can gain his own kingly power if that makes sense. Itd be super cool if this sets Thor up to become rune king thor or some version of it, as we know Oden gave his eye for wisdom, so thors sacrifice must be greater so he can be a better leader.
Valiant Thor has defeated the enemy . Him self . Unconditional love always
The brotherly love between Loki and Thor is so human and realistic, they fight all the but they always come back to each other, it's really cool to see that they are making the asgardians less godly and giving us New gods since the celestials are irrelevant now!
Does this come right after the Donny Cates run or is there something in between?
Are the elder gods making a come back??? Or maybe is this somehow connected to the upcoming “gods” series????
Kinda hoping we get Sett since were getting elder gods galore. Especially since i don't think he's been used since that great what if in the 80s.
Hey Rob, I very much appreciate the gesture. But 1 the contact won't work and 2 I live on the other side of the planet 😅.
So don't worry about it, been a fan for years and I'm sure I'll continue to be for a very long time. Keep up the good work man, your the only person I'll check to make sure my comic lore is accurate...well except for my uncle 😅.
@@lukepage4562it’s a bot
Toranos is based on Taranis, the Celtic god of thunder, he is often portrayed as an old man with a lightning bolt in one hand and a wheel in another, exactly how we see here. Osthur of the Vishanti is also an elder god
and Utgarde-Loki is literally the name of the King of the Frost Giants in Norse Myth, a Trickster & Master of Illusions in his own right...
altho Odin could make himself big (like when he fought Seth). Surprised Thor didn't do that
My honored host THOR has had the power to open dimensional portals since forever. Thor just rarely uses it. It connected to his hammer NOT the Odin force. Yet you are correct that after the fact he used the Odin force to repair everything except bringing back the dead from the incident.
The oldest time that I can accurately remember Thor opening a portal was when Count Nephera was very powerful and was taking out the whole avengers team and giving Thor a hard run for his money. At the end it was the Vision that delivered the final blow knocking the count OUT.
BEYOND OMEGA LEVEL: ICON FROM DC
Rune King Thor soon !
I like Loki's new design. Reminds me a lot of 80s rock stars.
3:49 for those not aware, Utgarde-Loki actually trolled the hel out of Thor and Loki in actual Norse mythology.
I knew that name sounded familiar!
yay im already over this nice guy loki. Hes a nice guy in the movies, bring back the evil one for the comics!
Gaea should have made to chat with Chthon, her brother.
And Loki became Mozart, apparently.
The Thor Snore
I wish that Loki becomes one, permanent, strong character who can defeat people like Scarlet Witch, Dormammu, Chthon, Galactus, and probably all of those heavy hitters.
yeah he got nerfed and made silly by the avengers. Annoying asf
@@slickchick5811God of Stories loki is nerfed loki?
I thought Loki already beat Dormammu and Scarlet Witch.
He defeated Nightmare.@@IStevenSeagal
@@omarscarborough4274 Which is why I thought what the OP was saying was weird. Loki always had respect. When Loki visits Mephisto's realm Mephisto offers him a seat beside him. He one shotted the Hulk twice, he whooped 3 wannabe Thors at the same time(each one had stalemated the superman Gladiator), he beat the Silver Surfer and Dormammu, he stalemated Apocalypse, Loki's avatar alone was too much for Dr. Strange to handle and he would've died if it werent for Thor intervening. The Avengers(Wanda included) without Thor's aid were useless against Loki. He one shotted the X-Men(the mighty Colossus was one of them then!).
It wasnt until disney/MCU came and made the Asgardians very incompetent and comedic that they all lost that respect.
For a second I thought this was a mortal kombat crossover. I must consult the elder gods about this
So these folks are like a fusion of the Old Ones and the Eldari in 40k so some true madness is about kick off
There have been hints that They Who Sit Above in Shadow are elder gods before - either originals, or gods who've been around so long that they've run out of worshippers. I wonder if Crom is among them.
I rather like the "instant fatigue" concept as a way of letting Thor retain the Odinpower while at the same time making it still possible to write stories about him. It's very similar to the old problem with using his belt of strength, and not unreasonable; he doesn't have the eons of practice that his father had in wielding the power, and he's using it on Earth when it originates in Asgard.
As for Loki...I'm reminded of the end of the Kid Loki run, when he broke the fourth wall while saying that he couldn't be permanently good because they (the readers of the comic) wouldn't let him. That may have been trumped by the viewers of the movies, but we'll see. Hopefully whatever happens will be more interesting than a simple reversion.
The Ultimates of Al Ewing are coming back
Can’t wait for the moment when it turns out absolutely everyone is stronger than the One Above ALL.
The fact that I immediately recognized those who sit above and shadow means... I spent too much of my life reading Comic books
For a while they just explained these guys as beyonders
Yeah they fed off of the energy from each cycle of ragnarok or something along those lines right?
@@eljefe3864yes the drama and suffering, battles etc.
Loke's power might put him on par or above TOAA actually, with his power he could literally rewrite the enitre history of marvel comics. Its like if Deadpool had not only 4th wall breaking powers but had the ability to write them as well. Of course he was there when they introduced the concept of a greater being than TOAA, he could be that being playing a part in his own story.
the Shadowlords (the ones who sit above in shadow) are probably celestials, that feed on godly magic
Cant wait for the Egyption gods from yugioh to show up
Please finish DC Dark Knights Metal… or whatever it was called for the mid-eval storyline.
No Atum is Gaea's son via the Demiurge
Beyond omega level: The Divine Creator
Classic Al Ewing move here: write an absolute banger story that changes the history of Marvel on a character we all love.
PLEASE FUCKING WRITE A SENTRY STORY, EWING!!!!
I knew it, rkt fought these guys before.
Ok so loki's turning on the elder gods at the last second, got it
Huh... i was literally just watching a video of Ugard-loki in mythology(actually unrelated to loki but still pretty OP) from overly sarcastic. So thats how they spinned udgard loki in marvel 🤔
Hunh. In that final panel, Loki looks a little Hela-esque.
BY THE ELDER GODS.....
- some lightning god probably😂
Hey, you should cover the last ronin Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
What heppened with donny cates' run? Last i saw Thor was investigating on that 7th infinity stone
Al Yewing = New Jonathan Hickman
So when are we gonna get the Kratos God of War introduction? This dude was in the game God of War.
So Loki beyond from defenders beyond will fight until Thor beyond meets up with venom beyond to fight carnage beyond and help the beyonders take on the utgard that the maker set up to destroy the chains of the multiverse version of infinity releasing him requiring the immortal hulk to use one below all and immortal Thor with one above all against this new threat being told by Loki the comic book editor
Gday mate. You asked me to contact you. How wouod I do that?
I think a new Marvel top 20 power hierarchy is in order. Please do a DC hierarchy too.
Really wish for us to stick with the god of stories for longer and explore that concept better. Also was enjoying seeing a more morally grey loki, evil loki and Tom Hiddlestone looking loki is are kinda tiring.
@dm--ComicsExplained what is it
Hi
How he got hand crushed by Thanos o ppfftt my bad
Is Cytorak (sp?) One of these elder God's? Is that the plotline were alluding to?
Fun fact thor have a lot of siblings thru his mother Gaea.
Another fun fact the elder god mithras from Yazata pantheon are thors brother.
Mithras the God light, heaven and hel are virgin birthed by Gaea.
He was very active in hyborian age.
Professor X vs Emperor Vitiate
i do like the classic thor costume, but the other one (donny cate's version) grew on me.
Honestly, rhe MCU should just take a page out of this and center the mcu around him. Now thar rdj is gone, he's like the one character that still has everyone unanimously rallying around him and his tv show tbh
