    Superman wielding Mjolnir and Cap's Shield is perhaps one of my most favorite comic drawings ever. There is nothing more epic than that in all of comics.

      Kinda. He has some of the worthiness qualities being a good guy who can do the right thing. And since all he had to do was whack a barrier, Odin allowed it - but didn't allow it after the barrier was destroyed. Now if the best way to stop the threat was to smash Krona's head until it explodes, Superman isn't doing that.

    This is George Perez's magnum opus. The man lobbied for so long to get this made, and he deserves every win imaginable, Busiek too for writing it.
    This is my favourite comic of all time, and it saddens me that this level of inter-company co-operation and friendly rivalry doesn't happen anymore.
    This needs to be an animated movie. Please.

      BTW, Thor had to lend Superman his hammer with special permission from Odin, otherwise Superman wouldn't have been able to use it. That's right, SUPERMAN of all people is unworthy to use Mjolnir. Why? Because he's not okay with killing.

      I think this is beyond dispute at this point though lol
      When you ask people what they think a superhero is, even in this time when Marvel Movies are dominating the film industry, people will still say Superman as an example. (They will likely say at least one of Spider-Man, Batman and Captain America, and guaranteed to say Superman)

    • @jasoncarter1869
      @jasoncarter1869 5 лет назад +50

      Hmmmm I think you may have missed the point. They couldn't have done it without each other. Superman needed the avengers, he needed Thors Hammer, he needed Odin's permission to lift it.
      Meanwhile, marvel needed him to be strong enough to lift it. The point was never about one hero or one side being the winner or one side having the most important artifact or character. The point, as usual, was that good triumphs over evil. Virtues like humility, strong will, might, and trust were put in display.
      The overall concept wasn't about everything coming down to superman because they would have failed if it had been left to any hero, alone. The idea was that teamwork was the key. It happens this way most of the time.
      If Cap and Bats didn't figure things out early on, if Thor didn't trust Sups with the hammer, if Superman wasn't deemed worthy, if flash and Hawkeye didn't work together at the end, they all lose..... Superman or no superman.
      Amiright?

      I think that's true. To be honest, he should have died in this story. "Reality warpers" hit him with red sun radiation and kryptonite so it should have been over for him.
      I mean even a human with kryptonite tipped bullets could kill him. Somehow, it just never turns out that way. They always write in some way for him to win even when it doesn't really make sense.
      Even in BVS he basically should have been killed but "Martha" right? Smh
      And then in the same movie, he of all people, used the kryptonite spear. He flies with it at full speed and full power. He shouldn't even have been able to pick it up. Fuckin writers.

He's God like strong of course, but he always sees reality, hates bullies, has a good heart and always has hope like Steven Rogers. What a fitting comic to see Supes lifting Thor's hammer and holding Capt's shield.

    Marvel fans seem to take it hard seeing Supes wield both Mjolnir and Caps Sheild in a majestic fashion, which in the end came out as the guy who made it all possible. I mean honestly, who else would Thor throw his hammer at, everyone is almost beaten while Superman is also barely hanging in there but he's open and available, and who else would you put your faith for a chance to win other than the guy who is most capable atm. Superman has been beaten before, he's not the strongest, but he is one of the most capable to get a job done.

    • @kingknotts
      @kingknotts 7 лет назад +45

      The funny thing is the reason Superman is not worthy is one of the most iconic parts of his character.... he refuses to kill and as such does not meet the warrior requirement. Even Captain America who has in 2 instances wielded Mjolnir has proved himself to be a warrior and has killed.

    • @kingknotts
      @kingknotts 7 лет назад +5

      ***** Not only is it more recent [in canon anyway since it happened before in a what if story], it was complete horse shit when compared to what has long been established....since it involved stripping THOR Odinson of his name and on top of that NOBODY that was considered worthy being able to lift it due to the enchantment changing itself. On top of that while she has not killed she has proven herself to be willing to if needed by using Sif's sword to fight with while she was on side kick duty and has both been an Asgardian and had Sif inside of her.
      Also killing doesn't have anything to do with it having the ability to do so when needed IS part of being a warrior which is explicitly a required characteristic. NOBODY with a strict no kill rule has been capable of doing so. Spiderman is the closest to one and even he has blood on his hands... He used Whisper as a human shield to protect himself causing Whisper to die, back when Strange lost his comic for a bit and the solution that made neither fanbase happy of forcing Spiderman to have to go to Strange for help constantly led to him erasing someone [the Shade] from existence,and the obvious Morlun..... The 2nd closest is Cap who has been very open about the fact he has killed people [mostly during war but there were a small number of times he has done so outside of war including shooting people to death based on instinct before he even realized he did so.
      No kill = no worthy... there are a TON of requirements established to be worthy, being a warrior is one that while mentioned a number of the people that are worthy it is not obvious right away due to the life they lived beforehand [such as being an emergency responder]... A universal trait they have all possessed which is generally something considered to be a requirement of being a warrior is they will kill when needed.

    • @LSSRoshi
      @LSSRoshi 7 лет назад +17

      Anthony Angelosanto Bad writing that goes against Marvel's history of the hammer, Odin, and Thor. Odin decides who is worthy by his enchantment. That's why he's grabbed it from Thor, and beat Thor's ass down when he was trying to teach him a lesson.

    • @kingknotts
      @kingknotts 7 лет назад +6

      @navy0287 7 лет назад +3

      AVATAR STICKMAN Exactly. I originally misread what you wrote and had to change my comment, but you are dead on. In addition to the nobility, you would have to have that warrior spirit.
      Normal worthiness would be determined by the Viking standards by which Odin, Thor, and all other Asgardians exist by. Being a good or pure person (like Superman was) wouldn't be enough.
      You would probably also need to be considered a warrior/soldier (or possibly have the heart and spirit of a warrior) by Asgardian/Viking standards; something Superman has never been in any of his mainstream continuities.
      The enchantment also allows the hammer to be wielded by someone if Thor is incapacitated and the battle must be won or if Thor wills the hammer to them; as Thor does in this case. Superman was in a position to continue the battle and Thor wasn't, so Thor tossed it to him.

      Leo Beastmode Me too I found him a long time before he was "Comics Explained", he was just "Marvel Explained" refusing to do any DC stories. During the first few episodes of The Weekly Pull Benny and Sal pressured him into incorporating more DC into the mix and Marvel Explained died and was reborn into what we have today as Comics Explained. If there are Rob Corps rings out there I gotta get one to promote the man where a lot of my comic book knowledge comes from.
