versions of hulk have actually lifted the hammer! the way it works in the comics is that it continuously gains mass whenever the person trying to lift it is unworthy. hulk tries to lift it, it gains mass, he gets frustrated and angry. the more angry he gets, the stronger he becomes. it’s gets to the point where hulk’s rage/strength outgrows the increase of mass.
Fact: In the actual myths, Mjolnir could be used by Thor because not of the whole worthiness thing but because of his magic gloves and belt that allowed it to use it safely.
Not only that, but the handle actually broke during the forging process in the myth (or a larger one couldn't be made because of Loki pranking Brok and Sindri, depending on version) and Thor was the only one who could use it effectively because of the unwieldy handle size and safely because of what you mentioned.
The enchantment on Mjolnir isn't about being a super good guy, it's about being worthy to rule Asgard according to Odin's ideals. Doom is worthy of ruling everything, as he's proven on multiple occasions.
Squirrel Girl lifts Mjölnir in Squirrel girl beats the Marvel universe, to defeat her evil clone. Because nobody is able to stop Squirrel Girl except herself with an upgrade.

technically everyone who's ever picked up thor *while* he was holding the hammer, has also picked up the hammer. That's called the transitive property. So basically everyone thor has ever fought has picked up the hammer at least once.
You can't mention Loki wielding the hammer in the Cates run without ALSO mentioning the small town mechanic that wielded it just a couple issues later.
There's also I believe a nameless paramedic at one point. Worthiness to wield Mjolnir is not owed exclusively yo characters of importance. I like that.
Fun fact: The way gravity works is that it imparts a force on things within it's influence, and the way that you can stay still is with an object exerting force back. This means any inanimate object is capable of lifting mjolnir. In this essay I will
Mr Fred Rogers can easily lift and wield it, while making a lesson about life itself comparing it to lifting the hammer (broad strokes: some find it easy, some find it hard, but ultimately, everyone is strong in different ways). He wouldn't lift it, but he could, and in an (obviously non-canon) fan comic, this actually happened. context: Thor was installing lightning rods in the Neighborhood on behalf of Shield, to "protect it from any storms (he) may be involved in".
You forgot about Magneto, the Master of Magnetism. He was able to lift Mjolnir, via his magnetic powers. All he had to do was reverse the polarity, like the human magnet that he is.
You forgot one, Magneto. Kept bringing up how certain people didn't really wield it, especially for Hulk in space, but Magneto used his power to use the hammer. I thought Black Widow did at some point, but I guess not.

7:13 The whole point of that story was that Doom ended up not being able to lift the hammer. Does whoever makes these do any research because i still remember when they showed a frame of Superman Prime and called it Ultraman
And he didn't even lift it in hell. He saw it fly by, opening a rift to the mortal world, and jumped in it's trail. He didn't hold it. This is ... just wrong.
@@toprakatao Avengers 33 which came out in May 2020 thru Avengers 37 October 2020, can’t remember which one specifically is where he picks up the hammer but it was a good little story
Zeus was an act of pure might, Dr Doom had it manipulated, Red Hulk had used the manipulation of gravity and strength, Hulk was just manipulating the momentum and allowed Thor to still hold so it wasn’t heavy, Storm used her own lightning powers and strength also with Thor still carrying the hammer deflected it on to Thor’s head and broke it, and Silver Surfer picked up Thor’s hammer because in the end he had a last ditch effort of pure heroism to defeat Thanos and became worthy at the time
I've a question: do you guys think a hero like Daredevil could be worthy to lift the hammer? Someone with a strong sense of morality but with whole lot of self-doubt and demons he's constantly battling internally. Could he do it? Why or why not?
For Superman, Odin lifted the worthiness enchantment temporarily, not because Superman was unworthy but because he was sort of too worthy. Thor is a warrior, and is therefore willing to kill. Superman however is not, which means he doesn’t fit that particular criteria.
Okay the reason Superman lifted Thor’s hammer was not because he’s worthy it was because Odin saw the situation and granted him access to wield it you can’t be worthy for a moment and not be able to pick up the hammer again Superman is weak to magic so it would just make him weaker and Superman already has a shit ton of powers so he does not need something that just adds to it so in conclusion Superman is not worthy
Storm beating WW was silly, at least the way they did it. The lightning could have done the trick, but one hit from WW would have ended Storm, and she got that hit in.
You are absolutely wrong about superman being worthy. Let me guess...you just saw the panel and did not read the rest? After the fight, superman tries to lift Mjolnir to give it to Thor but...HE WAS NOT ABLE TO LIFT IT. Translations might change, since I read it in my native tongue (spanish). But Thor explained that Odin, in times of great danger or need, is not as strict as always...meaning that he turned off the worthy enchantment just for a moment.
Fun Facts: Hulk Has Lifted Mjonir In A Fight With The Avengers In A Official Cartoon And Also He Could Grab Mjonir In The Comics If He Just Got Angry Enough
Back in DC versus Marvel his name was Captain Marvel. This is before that guy decided to change his name to Shazam after making it where Billy Batson was not the main Captain Marvel anymore.
I'll add another possible justification for Doom. Maybe, just maybe he was worthy since he was in hell, he might as well be one of the few worthy beings in hell at the time if not the only one.
Or a more likely explantation of Doom being able to lift it in Hell, the hammer follows the rules of the realm they are in. And based on the fact he was in Hell he was worthy by Hells standards, and it stopped working when he returned to earth because the standards changed. That's my opinion anyway.
JLA/Avengers story was a remake of Contest of Champions and nothing special. The best part was Thor laying Superman out, and when Superman first tried to lift the hammer he couldn't. Eric Masterson was cool.
I’m also not sure it counts but Moon Knight lifts Mjolnir but doesn’t actually hold it through his connection to Khansu. So I guess Khansu can be said to have wielded it?
Imagine if in a few movies, Falcon gets stuck in some impossible situation where he's trying to save innocent people, his suit malfunctioning and surrounded in danger, he closes his eyes and begins to pray for help or some kind of miracle, then they hear a *whooshhh* coming and a gap in the crowd begins to form as his enemies knock down one by one, then Falcon catches mjolnir and his eyes light up with odin force, then not only that but later on he has to maybe speak to odin to get assistance or find out why the hammer chose him, then he ends up getting his wings upgraded and imbued with odins power, very far fetched but if Steve Rogers is worthy, and he thinks Sam is worthy, then it could be a cool arc in the future
Ugh, why does everyone keep saying that beta ray bill beat Thor and lifted mjolnir in their 1st meeting, it didn't happen that way,when thor and bill 1st fought thor was still under that 60 second rule where he had to have physical contact with mjolnir, thor had missed recovering his hammer after throwing it and while battling bill time had ran out and thor turned into dr. Blake and the hammer turned into the walking cane, bill then knocked out blake and then took the cane and unintentionally struck it against the wall ,that's how he gained thor's power and hammer, go back and read it
I hate to be that guy but it wasn't actually venom. When the uniforce possess Eddie Brock it told him to choose a form. And Eddie chose to look like venom even though they weren't used at the time.
versions of hulk have actually lifted the hammer!
the way it works in the comics is that it continuously gains mass whenever the person trying to lift it is unworthy.
hulk tries to lift it, it gains mass, he gets frustrated and angry. the more angry he gets, the stronger he becomes. it’s gets to the point where hulk’s rage/strength outgrows the increase of mass.
Imagine if he were to drop it while it's mass is super high and it just falls through the earth
Sounds like a fun little trip for Thor.

@@42lilmike He'll be able to lift it, but it'll keep getting heavier
Fact: In the actual myths, Mjolnir could be used by Thor because not of the whole worthiness thing but because of his magic gloves and belt that allowed it to use it safely.
It's like that in D&D too. You don't even need to be attuned to the gauntlets and belt to attune to the hammer. Just wearing them.
Thor's hammer is fatter than ur mom
The Járngreipr were used to either have him not break the thing, or to protec this hands from the weapon itself?
Not only that, but the handle actually broke during the forging process in the myth (or a larger one couldn't be made because of Loki pranking Brok and Sindri, depending on version) and Thor was the only one who could use it effectively because of the unwieldy handle size and safely because of what you mentioned.
I thought it was just so heavy that only he could lift it, and even to do that he needed those magic items

Venom's time was such a flex. He didn't just pick it up, he literally SUMMONS IT OUT OF ODINSON'S HANDS

I think the comic book version, worthiness is you can't be tempted by its power, selfish and willing to kill when absolutely necessary.
For Superman, Odin lifted the worthiness enchantment temporarily, not because Superman was unworthy but because he was sort of too worthy. Thor is a warrior, and is therefore willing to kill. Superman however is not, which means he doesn’t fit that particular criteria.

“He wielded lightning with the power of mjolnir!!” “Oh yea that happened to my buddy eric once”
My favorites that have wielded the hammer. Superman, venom, silver surfer and that's it.
Okay the reason Superman lifted Thor’s hammer was not because he’s worthy it was because Odin saw the situation and granted him access to wield it you can’t be worthy for a moment and not be able to pick up the hammer again Superman is weak to magic so it would just make him weaker and Superman already has a shit ton of powers so he does not need something that just adds to it so in conclusion Superman is not worthy
Storm beating WW was silly, at least the way they did it. The lightning could have done the trick, but one hit from WW would have ended Storm, and she got that hit in.
Storm and Thor both have lightning in common... That has nothing to do with the hammer.
Actually, they have more in common. Both of their powers control the weather ie they can both make rain and tornadoes

There was a animated Ultimate Avengers movie that had Hulk rage enough to swing one of the hammers. It looked more like Stormbreaker
Yh it was his axe 🪓 it has a name but it is not stormbreaker
Black Panther held it too when he fought Moon Knight
Venom! Awesome!
It wasn’t Mjolnir that deemed Thor unworthy it was Thor that deemed himself unworthy and yes theirs a big difference
Now anyone can hold it nothing is sacred in marvel comics anymore

Black Panther has also lifted Thor’s hammer. One of his ancestors used it before T’chala was born
that was very dumb though, thats why nobody liked it

No, his powers are magic based. If thats the case, any magician can. Black Lightning is a more likely fit
