Retconning Thor to be the son on The Phoenix was total BS. Being the son Of Gaia has EVERYTHING to do with Thor’s everyday doings. It ties him to the Earth and its people and the lore is EPIC. Ecstatic that Marvel has decided to return and revisit this storyline.
@IStevenSeagal Why bring up sides to begin with? Comic books dabble in politics left and right (no pun intended), but this isn't really one of those times...Lighten up a bit.
All you have to do is create your own little Comics and see how far they go. someone might want to narrate them. But at the end of the day you're doing nothing but listening to somebody so listen.
I think it does matter that Gaia is Thor's mother. It kinda explains why he's always been attracted to Earth. He feels connected to it. So, I have to disagree with you.
I think it doesn’t matter because everyone is the child, grandchild ect. Of gaia all of the Gods after her are direct offspring from Norse to Greek to Egypt Gods. To humans or whatever other beings are her offspring. Her and Uranus gave life to everything so bring her child is insignificant. Humans are all her great grandchildren. The only thing that lived before her is chaos which is just everything
@@xavierholden3443 If we think that way, then nothing matters. It doesn't matter if Peter Parker and MJ are not together anymore, for instance. They're all Gaia's children anyway.
The phoenix is also attracted to earth.. hence why it’s chooses a telepath hosts. This also doesn’t align with mythology which if you want that go read actual mythology. This is fiction as it was meant to be.
Not gonna lie but Atum/Demogorge seems like the first Sentry/Void. At least in my opinion. It’s about time marvel started doing more with their old gods 😌
Marvel didnt invent that, but their level of knowledge on all thing mythology is astonishing. I still say comics are the epitome of mythology, the stories are so much deeper than surface level!
I would actually love to if they retconned Sentrys origin to have been originated(atleast his powers) from Atum or an aspect of him unknowingly extracted from the scientists who created the Sentry formula. (I think it may have already been hinted at that he created the formula using a mixture of super soldier serum and high/concentrated exposure to radiation from the sun.) A.k.a.... an aspect of Atum.
@@mr.bandicoot2139 Hell, the aspect of the Sentry and the Void could probably be tied back over to Lifebringer One and the Anti-All along with Atum/Demogorge.
Al Ewing, the writer of this story hinted in his defenders series Sentry and the Void are aspects or just the Lifebringer-one(the first Sentry) and Anti-all(the primordial void). It may be that Atum and Demigorge are aspects of Lifebringer-one and Anti-all.
I'm pretty sure that the Thor "relaunch" is running in parity with Immortal as a "Roxxon produced" story. Also Gaea being Thor's mom has always mattered lol
Thor visits Gaea, Gaea states humans suck because we're haughty, destroying the Earth, and think the Earth was made for us (which isn't too much different than us being made for the Earth, but whatever, comics), Captain Planet appears, Ted Turner appears, a bunch of hippies chain themselves to a tree, the Italian Native American from the commercials in the 70s appears, Greenpeace appears, Mr.Beast and Team Trees appears- Rob: This is when you realize the whole story is actually an environmentalist story.
When you consider that humans are animals, creatures created by nature, and thus are an extension of nature's laws, then you realize that human activity is part of nature's "plan" all along. Yes we either realize we fooled around and found out some stuff is bad for us and it was best to stop. But even if we went full tilt balls to the wall and destroyed the current ecosystem, it is as part of that same ecosystem, as a force of nature, what nature made us. This sort of preaching in media is so freaking tiresome and obviates the human animal fact. Nihilistic BS.
And the answer to Gaia is "If you wanted us to be less ravenous then stop making beings that would literaly do this given the chance and quit it with the moral bs when you have none. Humans know this and the smart ones are trying to make sustainable systems."
@oluwadamilola6233 I mean, we had Galactus as "God", then we had the Beyonder, then the living Tribunal, and then it kept going on and on and on, so I would wait before talking about Marvel gods beings straight up unbeatable omni-present God because everytime there is one, another shows up and is "more powerful"
3:00 They took that conversation straight out of the 38th Chapter of JOB. Job 38:4 "Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding." Nothing new under the sun -> Ecc 1:9
This conversation also takes place in Immortal Hulk. They actually use that quote word for word as it’s written in Job, unlike here, where it’s paraphrased.
most powerful until marvel is like “that was only a manifestation of the pinky finger of the weakests of 4 brother beings actually and now we need these mcguffins to survive”
@@KingDues maybe but my pathetic mortal body requires sleep at the worst of times... That's why i appreciate being woken up not to miss the things that really count^^
slight miscalculation Thor is still the direct child of Odin and Gaea and Thors Father and Brothers created the All force which the Asgardian king inherits all of the previous power of the last king. SO Thor really isn't half of anything Thor went blow for blow with Bor and he was holding back his power.
Thor has actually fought Atum in the core of the sun before and actually hurt him by infusing his lightning with the essence of Atum and angered him enough to transform into the demorgorge.
It is canon that Thor was created to protect Earth. He is like a living contract between Odin and Gaea. Due to the Asgardians craving worship from humans. But the Celestials limited all Pantheons of gods having contacts with humans. So Odin found a flaw in the decree by fathering Thor with Gaea who infused her essence with the planet Earth. So Gaea,Cthon and Set are technically siblings. Therefore they are Thor's uncles?
Most of what Gaea said was true from the early Dr Strange and the old suspense books but that was Thor's attachment to Earth, Rob's right this time, he's the strongest
Writers and Comic Book Characters like Superboy-Prime that can leave the white pages of the comics. The one above all can not leave the comic and neither can the Presence in DC. This was explained in Lucifer. SBP and others with writers abilities are above these comic gods.
I thought the All Father power was a power multiplied by the powers of past All Fathers and Thor's Family Line. Is that not the case? Also is there no way that Thor couldn't access the Ruin King status?
It was set. In the 'atlantis attacks' series in the late 80's, they had back up stories that went over the creation of the earth, celestial, eternals, etc. Set and chthon were originally divine God beings who devolved into Major demons after they started eating their fellow elders and absorbing their powers. Set was the first murderer. Eventually Gaia banged Demiurge and birthed Atum, a sun god, who took on all the fallen elder gods, absorbing them and turning into the Demogorge. A being so powerful that Set and Cthon sh!t their pants and fled the 616 dimension. Demogorge managed to revert to Autum by 'purging' the evils and demonic energy he absorbed but this may have resulted in the creation of Mephisto and other major demonic beings. It would explain why mephisto focuses so much time on earth.
In actual Norse myth, Tiwaz was another name for Tyr, God of justice and law. Idk if Marvel changed that around, but I've never heard Buri referred to as Tiwaz. Just being pedantic.
@Tecnofanb0y I readily admit that I haven't read enough Thor. Which seems strange given my fascination with Norse myth. I appreciate the knowledge tho, thank you.
Oh, Robs talking about Thors parentage... I'll wager any amount of money he's going to mention Phoenix was hinted to be his mother and how he prefers that route
Isn't this the same basic idea of when the mutants fought the Eternals and then the Celestial decided Earth wasn't worth saving... that was not that long ago.
Meanwhile over in X-Men: Unlimited not even a full year ago, Gaea abandoned Nature Girl as one of her children because Nature Girl had decided to raze humanity to the ground to save flora and fauna. Gotta love the lack of editorial communication at Marvel.
she tells Thor he's her mercy to humanity so maybe nature girl was supposed to be like that instead of a genocidal maniac. Meaning only gaea can decide when to end life
Even with the Generational "miscegenation" of power: 1. The Odin force is the power of 3 gods from the generation preceding Thor's 2. Thor is half first generation god. King Thor should be plenty powerful enough to at least put up a fight against the elder gods.
Not at all, the elder gods in their true forms predate creation, Gaia for example of her name pre creation was cleito alongside Adam kondman which is another name for eternity, they took physical form on earth which marked the heart of eternity, elder gods don't only symobize aspects of nature but fundamental aspects of Existence, Life, Evil, Change, Destruction, Creation... Cthon is feared by cosmic abstracts, Thor or any other godhead in the second generation of gods don't stand a chance against the elder gods
Hunh. Gaia's questioning of Thor sounds a lot like it got it's inspiration, or at least a good chunk of it, from God's questioning of Job, in that self-titled book from The Bible.
Yeah no,he used all the power cosmic within him or at least most of it to create a super powered god blast to kill Galactus and black winter, since then he's gotten the totality of the Odin force which is nice
I always thought Marvel could have just squared the circle around Gaea and the Phoenix, and made them the same person for the sake of Thor's origin. Both are canonically avatars of Life, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say Gaea has an innate connection to the Phoenix, fueling her own powers. And the Host of the Phoenix force who was depicted as Thor's mother happened to be a projection of Gaea she created from her exile to enter Midgard, who through that connection was predisposed to channel that power. It's about as plausible as anything else around that whole topic and solves that problem by keeping both versions as true.
why would gaea need the phoenix force? it has nothing to offer her. and they're not the same concept, gaea is the embodiment of life while the phoenix embodies death and rebirth. and pls thor simply does not have any connections with that burnt pigeon keep it very far away from him.
@@Tecnofanb0y That's not at all what I'm suggesting. I'm saying to give them a thematic connection, similar to how Hel acts as an aspect of Mistress Death in her function as the keeper of an afterlife.
I just remembered, when Thor pulled Storm away from the battle of Arakko he said that he would paybher pack in kind and fight any war on her behalf when called. Couldn't Thor be used in this manner in the upcoming Mutant Human Machine war? Especially since he is the protector of Midgard & Midgard is looking to be unalived in the next few stories it might make a interesting twist. Also Ironman is still out their, Cap & Fisk (not sure what he do), also if this is a Mutant-Human-Machine War then where does the rest of the Marvel earth bound heroes and villians play into this? Or will they keep this a x-men thing minus the characters we have already seen (the 3 mentioned, Deadpool, Nova if he is alive,and others)?
And yet, Cosmic King Thor shit on a fully-fed Galactus (a cosmic entity). Not to mention, Rune King Thor becoming a cosmic entity. Perhaps in this comic run, Atum is all-powerful, but not in the scope of comics, especially Thor.
Please tell me you're just talking about the "Roxxon Presents: Thor" issue that's coming out next month? They'd be insane to boot Ewing from Thor, he's one of the best writers they have.
I'm really curious about how the celestials and the elder gods see each other. Like, does Gaea have tea time with Mistress Death on occasion since death is a part of life? Has Gaea ever slapped the crap out of Galactus for trying to eat her? There are so many cosmic level interactions that they could do, that they should do, that they won't do.
I like Thor realized this was getting outside his pay grade, his mom won't have it, big bro is out there and all out god still might happen. Where is Thor to do beat up Dario, if I am not mistaken was the fall guy for Hulk to resolve some issue Roxxon was at fault for with an original Hulk type character by splitting Dario's head open.
Gaia "The children of Earth are self destructive unruly and can never find peace with themselves." Thor "How many times has the children of Earth saved Eternity?" Gaia "Twice?" Thor "higher" Gaia "Four?" Thor "higher and lets not forget they stopped Galactic from eating everyone, including you."
You can tell Rob hasn’t even read this Thor run or paid attention to solicits cause that is not all what happens at the end or what is happening in the series.
Idk Rob, we see in the chaos king that Atum got killed by the skrull queen goddess or whatever she called herself. Been forever since I read that. Guess this is just a retcon for this story
Last we saw of Mintaur, he was brutally fucked up by The Leader, so I'm hoping this does not follow that continuity, or he's at least mostly healed. But I'm worried his receptionist said "he REALLY doesn't take meetings without an appointment" because he'll still be super fucked up, hooked up to 20 machines barely keeping him alive.
given the aspects thing from what we saw with loki, and since you noted he summoned her, i feel is possible that this is just an avatar of her's a physical form she manifests as to interact
Hmm. I could swear that Thor DID meet Atum one time and fought him back in Atlantic Attacks. Also according to the Marvel Wiki Atum goes by the name Amon Ra these days (Yeah, Ra leader of the Egyptian deities). So Marvel must be playing games with stuff (big surprise). sm
@@Tecnofanb0y are you arguing with marvel? Coz it has been like that since he was introduced. Atum, current alias amon_ra, represented by the sun. Go and tell them to change it, if you don't like it
Okay "For whenever life comes together to make new life that is merely the play of SHADOWS..... and this was THE LIGHT", The Shadow IS THE KING IN BLACK and Atum is THE ENIGMA FORCE....
I hope Al Ewing takes that king in crap crap and flush it down the toilet His own take on marvel mythology is millions of times more interesting than force-feeding venom everywhere, anywhere into every orifice of the stories
wait, attend, ちょっと待ってください ! you're telling us that we'll never have any next chapter for this story ?????? it was so good pls marvel finish the story pls
demiurge is the creator of all the elder gods. then atum fought and consumed majority of the elder gods using their energy to seed the earth which gave birth to all the pantheon on earth.
"Marvel's most powerful god"....until the next issue where some other, human looking god who can wipe out the multiverse with a thought but gets killed by a dude who throws a metal disk, appears as the most powerful god.
I love the old “Jack Kirby, as the one above all.” Also Meeting Peter and talking to him.

Please tell me you're just talking about the "Roxxon Presents: Thor" issue that's coming out next month? They'd be insane to boot Ewing from Thor, he's one of the best writers they have.
I'm really curious about how the celestials and the elder gods see each other.
Like, does Gaea have tea time with Mistress Death on occasion since death is a part of life?
Has Gaea ever slapped the crap out of Galactus for trying to eat her?
There are so many cosmic level interactions that they could do, that they should do, that they won't do.
Galactus doesn't mess with mistress death like that. Last I saw, they had a kind of sibling relationship
0:30 man i love Thor comics.
Happy Monday everyone have a blessed week ahead much love from South Africa 💯
I feel like the more powerful things get and how much power is spread around, the less impressive it is to witness.
True. There's less and less frame of reference for it anymore
I like Thor realized this was getting outside his pay grade, his mom won't have it, big bro is out there and all out god still might happen. Where is Thor to do beat up Dario, if I am not mistaken was the fall guy for Hulk to resolve some issue Roxxon was at fault for with an original Hulk type character by splitting Dario's head open.
Wish we could get animated stories like this
Gaia "The children of Earth are self destructive unruly and can never find peace with themselves."
Thor "How many times has the children of Earth saved Eternity?"
Gaia "Twice?"
Thor "higher"
Gaia "Four?"
Thor "higher and lets not forget they stopped Galactic from eating everyone, including you."
Awesome video man 😎
You can tell Rob hasn’t even read this Thor run or paid attention to solicits cause that is not all what happens at the end or what is happening in the series.
Idk Rob, we see in the chaos king that Atum got killed by the skrull queen goddess or whatever she called herself. Been forever since I read that. Guess this is just a retcon for this story
Last we saw of Mintaur, he was brutally fucked up by The Leader, so I'm hoping this does not follow that continuity, or he's at least mostly healed. But I'm worried his receptionist said "he REALLY doesn't take meetings without an appointment" because he'll still be super fucked up, hooked up to 20 machines barely keeping him alive.
I always love when cosmic beings get sick of humans and their antics 😂
So what you're saying is...
0:44 Swamp Gyatt
jump
Rob makes a jaded salt pillar.. And it's amazing.
given the aspects thing from what we saw with loki, and since you noted he summoned her, i feel is possible that this is just an avatar of her's a physical form she manifests as to interact
Yeah, Gaia has avatars.
at 6:30, which old comic is that page from? 🤔 thanks!
Hmm. I could swear that Thor DID meet Atum one time and fought him back in Atlantic Attacks. Also according to the Marvel Wiki Atum goes by the name Amon Ra these days (Yeah, Ra leader of the Egyptian deities). So Marvel must be playing games with stuff (big surprise). sm
Amun _ra is not Atum, and has never been
@@Tecnofanb0yyes, Atum is Amon_Ra. Son of Nun (Demiurge) and father of Bast and Sekhmet
@@droskie5 LMFAO, that's an entirely different being altogether. but you're free to believe what you want.
@@Tecnofanb0y are you arguing with marvel? Coz it has been like that since he was introduced. Atum, current alias amon_ra, represented by the sun. Go and tell them to change it, if you don't like it
Every week, a new most powerful. REALLY.
Happy Monday!
I first read about Atum/Demegorge was way back in Atlantis Attacks in 1989.
Listening to rob explain Marvel's Cosmic / Divine hierarchy >>>>>>>>
Okay "For whenever life comes together to make new life that is merely the play of SHADOWS..... and this was THE LIGHT", The Shadow IS THE KING IN BLACK and Atum is THE ENIGMA FORCE....
I hope Al Ewing takes that king in crap crap and flush it down the toilet
His own take on marvel mythology is millions of times more interesting than force-feeding venom everywhere, anywhere into every orifice of the stories
You should cover Black Radiant and Nemisis! They’re both indie comics but amazing!! I think you’d like them
this looks so damn SICK!!!! love the art
Hey Rob… cover Godslap please! It looks interesting and wanna know if it’s worth buys
Gaea having a real Ra's Al Ghul motive in this comic. This doesn't really seem like her.
wait, attend, ちょっと待ってください ! you're telling us that we'll never have any next chapter for this story ?????? it was so good pls marvel finish the story pls
Is the demiurge the one above all or evil? And is there a sophia in marvel comics? Or a choas black void mother type of thing?
The demiurge is just the source that gods come from but not quite that scale. Not evil but just kind of exists
If a god or alien came down and said No More Humanity... We all gone. We just won't band together fast enough to talk them down
Thats like asking ants to unify
You can tell that Roxxon is ghetto(gully, hood, grimey, grungy)it's the name... ROCKS ON!😂
Is demiurge the creator or was he one of those old gods like cthon etc?
He answered this pretty much created the other gods but doesnt mention everything else but probably yeah
demiurge is the creator of all the elder gods. then atum fought and consumed majority of the elder gods using their energy to seed the earth which gave birth to all the pantheon on earth.
Please redo the Marvel top 20 most powerful characters hierarchy, and finally do the DC hierarchy!!
Thor now works for The WEF and will appear with an orange 'just stop oil ' t shirt.
It would be interesting if Marvel ever had a story with the Elder gods of Earth battling the Elder gods outside of Earth like the Octessence.
odin smashed that swamp thang
Odin: Mmm, is that Chanel no.5?
Gaea: I think it's the corpse rotting and stuck in my craw, now let's get dirty.
Love this story & it’s tie-in’s.
i mean can the Minotor even die? dude got feed into a meat blender and just came out missing his face... character has some OP plot armor
Nothing wrong with Rob's titles. True fan I love listening to him so it doesn't bother me .. assuming your right haha.....
Please make a video explaining Utgard thor vs Thor
"Marvel's most powerful god"....until the next issue where some other, human looking god who can wipe out the multiverse with a thought but gets killed by a dude who throws a metal disk, appears as the most powerful god.
Always a pleasure to Dario Agger whenever he pops up
Godkiller, have you come to kill me?
