History
Thor was raised as Odin's eldest son and designated successor, aspiring to become a wise and powerful king like his father. Before his exile, he relied on strength and combat to solve problems, reflecting Asgard's martial ideals. 167 294
Stripped of his divine power and unable to lift Mjolnir during his time in New Mexico, Thor experienced mortality and helplessness for the first time. He chose to evacuate civilians rather than pursue glory, and Odin eventually restored his divine power after Thor faced the Destroyer. 166 171 Thor returned to Asgard, confronted Loki's attempt to destroy Jotunheim, and destroyed the Bifrost to stop the plan. 172 259
Following the Chitauri invasion of Asgard, Thor helped quell conflicts across the Nine Realms and was sent to Earth to establish communication and peaceful relations between the two civilizations. 335 346 410
Seeking to prevent Ragnarok, Thor defeated Surtur in Muspelheim and returned to find Odin dead and Hela claiming Asgard. Hela shattered Mjolnir, blinded him in one eye, and defeated him before Heimdall sent him away through the Bifrost. 468 469 Thor became a favored gladiator on Sakaar, but returned to Asgard after Sean challenged him to reclaim his responsibility as the God of Thunder. 470 471
During the battle against Hela's Einherjar, Thor awakened his thunder power without Mjolnir. Though he again lost directly to Hela, he accepted Sean's intervention to save Asgard. After Hela's defeat, Thor was crowned as one of the realm's three rulers. 473 474 476

Personality
Thor initially possesses considerable pride, arrogance, and faith in direct combat. Losing his powers on Earth forces him to understand the fear and weakness of ordinary people, beginning a shift away from reckless pursuit of glory. 165 167
He grows more considerate of consequences and increasingly accepts his responsibility to Asgard and the Nine Realms. He remains stubbornly courageous, returning to confront Hela despite knowing he is outmatched. 172 472
Despite his royal education and heroic reputation, Thor struggles to understand human social cues and Jane Foster's feelings. His affection for Jane leaves him jealous of Sean's closeness with her. 346 351
