Jane

Biodata

Background / History

Jane travels to Old Bridge Town with Professor Erik and her student Darcy after becoming concerned about Thor and curious about Mjolnir. She joins Thor, George, and their allies in trying to understand why Thor cannot lift the hammer. 182

When Heimdall activates the Bifrost to bring Thor and his new allies to Asgard, Jane is transported with the group. Odin offers the Midgardians one wish in gratitude for stopping Loki's plan; Jane requests astrophysics knowledge rather than material wealth. 183 188

After returning to Earth, Jane remains behind with Erik to study the knowledge Odin granted her. Before Thor leaves for Superpower Academy, she gives him her New York address and asks him to visit. 190 Their relationship continues as Thor divides his time between Asgard, Superpower Academy, and Jane's residence. 300

By the time of Kur's return, Jane and Thor are dating and spend time together in New York. 305 They later marry. George modifies Jane's body to give her an Asgardian-like constitution, curing a hidden cancer, extending her lifespan, and enabling her to conceive with Thor. 684

Personality

Jane is considerate and modest. When Darcy requests a chest of gold from Odin, Jane objects that they contributed little and should not ask for such an excessive reward. 188

She values knowledge, choosing astrophysics education from Odin rather than wealth. 188 Her concern for Thor leads her to seek him out after he arrives on Earth, and she remains supportive during his extended stay in Midgard. 182 190
