—Mjolnir's enchantment[source]Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.
Mjolnir (literally, "grinder" as in "grindstone", cf. "meal" to "Mjöl") is the enchanted hammer wielded by theAsgardianThor, the Norse God of Thunder.[5] TheUru hammer which grants him many of his powers and abilities. Forged by KingEitri and theDwarves of Nidavellir in the heart of a dying star.[7] Mjolnir is enchanted so it can only be wielded bythose who are deemed "worthy".[5] Mjolnir also has a secret name which enables those who know it to call the hammer to them. Although speaking the name aloud is not required, only an act of will, the person must actively remember the name to call it.[8] Through the power of theSerpent,Hellnir was made the dark opposite of Mjolnir, twinning them through time and space.[9]
History
Origin[]
Ages ago, a moon made ofUru was shattered during a battle between twoElder Gods, with one of the pieces eventually crashing toNidavellir and being claimed by thedwarves.[10] The dwarves bestowed this chunk of Uru toOdin, the recently-crowned All-Father of theAsgardians, as a gift after he saved their realm from an invasion of Trolls. Some time later, an unimaginably powerful cosmic storm called theGod Tempest approachedAsgard, and Odin battled the storm for many days to defend his kingdom. Once the storm was weakened enough, Odin defeated the God Tempest by trapping it in the chunk of Uru.[7]

Dwarves forging Mjolnir
From the Uru,Odin ordered the Dwarves of Nidavellir to forge Mjolnir.[11] On theGodmaker forge,[12] the blacksmithsEitri,Brokk,[13] andBuri[11] needed to use the tremendous heat of a star to get the forge hot enough to manipulate the Uru. The hammer was completed in seventeen weeks.[7] In the process the star exploded and almost tookMidgard with it; that event may explainthe extinction of the Dinosaurs, about 65 million years ago.[11] After Mjolnir landed on Earth, Odin retrieved it.[14]

Odin seals Mjolnir after failing to control its power
When Odin first tried to wield Mjolnir, he couldn't control it due to the God Tempest still retaining its power. The hammer devastated Asgard as it flew out of control. Out of spite, Odin cast an enchantment on the hammer to prevent anyone else from wielding it. Despite struggling to control it, Odin wielded Mjolnir during his tenure as a member of theprehistoric Avengers, but after he assumed the throne the hammer was stored away in Asgard's armory, where it sat for untold ages. The God Tempest purportedly died, but its power would remain inside Mjolnir.[14][7]
Although powerful in and of itself, the hammer also received several potent spells fromOdin, who slew theFrost GiantLaufey with it.[15]
Thor[]
Much later, Mjolnir was bequeathed to his son Thor, after he proved himself worthy through several trials.[16] With few exceptions, Thor has carried Mjolnir throughout his adventures. Thus, the history of Mjolnir follows that of Thor. Although Asgard was destroyed inRagnarök, Thor and the hammer survived.[17]
Modern Age[]
While Thor was trapped on the extradimensional world ofBalatraan,[18] theEnchanterEnrakt detected his presence while searching for his imprisoned brothers. Seeking vengeance, Enrakt projected his astral essence across the inter-dimensional gulf so that he could infuse his essence within Mjolnir and become its master, even though doing so caused his physical body's death.[19] Now in a weakened state, it took months for Enrakt to replenish his strength enough that he could cause the hammer to occasionally act up and cause problems for Thor.[20] Enrakt's spirit eventually left the hammer[21] and he and his brothers were soon defeated.[22]
AfterNick Fury whispered to Thor a revelation that consolidated the God of Thunder's deepest belief, that ofGorr the God-Butcher being right about claiming that gods were selfish and uncaring for mortals, Thor lost his confidence about his godhood and consequently his ability to wield Mjolnir.[23] The hammer laid on the Moon, mostly untouched, where it was eventually lifted by its new wielder,[24] Thor's former lover,Jane Foster.[25] During this time, the inscription of the enchantment changed to "if she be worthy."[24]
DuringHydra's takeover of theUnited States, Jane Foster was separated from the hammer and an alternate evil version ofCaptain America lifted it to prove the worthiness of his cause.[26] Without his knowledge,Madame Hydra had used aCosmic Cube shard to alter the hammer's enchantment so it could be lifted by the "strongest" rather than the "worthy." When the real Steve Rogers returned and confronted his evil self, the alterations to Mjolnir had faded away, and the evil Captain America failed to lift the hammer when he tried to. Following the defeat of the evil Captain America, Mjolnir was returned to Jane Foster.[27]
Jane Foster had been fighting cancer even before lifting Mjolnir. Unfortunately for her, all progress from chemotherapy became lost whenever she used Mjolnir to transform into Thor. Since the magical transformation purged all toxins from Jane's body, it did so to the chemotherapy drugs, but left the cancer behind since it was part of her body.[28] Jane attempted to let go of using Mjolnir for the sake of her health, but saw herself forced to return to action to confront theMangog, even if that meant that she would die if she transformed back one last time.[29] Following an arduous fight, Jane tied the Mangog up withGleipnir, the chains originally created to bind theFenris Wolf, and fastened them to Mjolnir so she could hurl the monster into the Sun. With the Mangog dead and Mjolnir destroyed, Jane returned to her human form and succumbed to her cancer;[30] however, she was successfully revived by the Asgardians and the God Tempest, which had been set free following Mjolnir's destruction. Jane later handed Thor a small piece of Mjolnir she was able to retrieve.[31]

Mjolnir reforged
Near the end of theWar of the Realms, Thor nailed himself to Yggdrasil, which was growing out of the surface of theSun to gain knowledge on how to rescue his parents from the clutches ofMalekith. Thor was forced to sacrifice one of his eyes and the last remaining shard of Mjolnir in his possession to unlock the answers. During the final battle against Malekith, the God Tempest manifested in the Sun, and Thor commanded it from Earth to reforge his weapon. The restored Mjolnir then made landfall at Thor's feet, becoming able to wield it once again upon his realization that the constant struggle to be worthy was itself what made him worthy. Its inscription was also changed to "ifthey be worthy."[32] However, unbeknownst to Thor, Mangog's dark essence was absorbed by the reforged Mjolnir and melded with that of the God Tempest, giving the hammer sentience.[33]

Mjolnir as the God of Hammers
Despite becoming worthy again, Thor noticed Mjolnir becoming heavier to lift after becoming Asgard's new All-Father,[34] the will of the hammer deeming him unworthy of wielding it.[33] After performing a test inBroxton, Thor discovered that something had happened to Mjolnir's worthiness enchantment, causing everyone else to become worthy to wield Mjolnir while it became more difficult for him to wield it.[35] Thor eventually deduced that this was because - as king - he was no longer Asgard's lead warrior, and he left the unruly hammer atAvengers Mountain for safekeeping.[36] Manifesting a feminine humanoid avatar from the God Tempest's divine lightning, Mjolnir embarked on a rampage across the Ten Realms; committing a genocide against the dwarves of Nidavellir and annihilating the city of Broxton. When confronted by Thor, Mjolnir's avatar dubbed herself the "God of Hammers" after a prophecy said to bring about Asgard's ruination.[37] Shattering one of Thor's arms, the God of Hammers was stopped from killing him by the intervention of Odin and Sif, who used the Bifrost to transport Mjolnir to the farthest reaches of the cosmos. Mjolnir returned within seconds and broke Odin's spine, revealing to Thor that being "worthy" of Mjolnir had never been about being a noble warrior or true of heart, but having the bloodlust and will to use the hammer for its intended purpose: as a weapon. Sneering that she had grown bored of his speeches and politicking, the God of Hammers revealed that after being reforged she had absorbed the Mangog's dark essence and was consumed by its ineffable rage and hatred.[33] After Odin sacrificed himself to bestow Thor with the entirety of the Power of the All-Father,[38] an enraged Thor teleported the God of Hammers to the forge where Mjolnir was made, theGodmaker. Igniting the forge with the heat of a billion suns, Thor burned the God Tempest's corrupted essence out of the hammer, shattering it in the process.
With Thor lapsing into theOdinsleep for four months, his sisterAngela enlisted theAngels ofHeven to gather the pieces and restore it, leaving Mjolnir seemingly powerless and covered in glowing golden cracks,[39] and Odin's spirit now inhabiting it as he was unable to rest inValhalla, due to it being completely empty.[40]
During a conflict between Thor and theHulk,Odin took control of Mjolnir to help Thor.[41] Upon the arrival ofIron Man, who began to fight the Hulk, Thor was transformed into a gamma mutate as a collateral damage of a gargantuan explosion caused by Hulk.[42] As Thor was fighting the Savage Hulk, Banner asked Odin for help. Odin agreed and piloted Mjolnir to Hulk, allowing Banner to regain control of Hulk as well as bestowing the power of Thor to Hulk.[43] Unable to stop Thor even with the help of the Hulk, Odin finally used Mjolnir to completely purge Thor's gamma energy, returning him to normal.[44] After the return of Valhalla, Odin's spirit left Mjolnir to pass to the afterlife guided by the light ofValkyrie'sUndrjarn.[45]

Thor reforges Mjolnir
Properties
Mjolnir was crafted from a nugget ofUru, a powerful nigh-invulnerableAsgardian metal.[11] Additional enchantments placed upon it by Odin made it virtually indestructible.[15] It has survivedKang the Conqueror's antimatter screen,[48] heat as extreme as the heart of suns, and blasts powerful enough to destroy planets. Almost nothing is capable of withstanding a blow from Mjolnir, not even the armor of the powerfulCelestials.[49] A rare exception isprimary adamantium, as was demonstrated when Thor threw Mjolnir at the robotUltron with no effect.[50]
In later years, Mjolnir demonstrated that it possessed remnants of the God Tempest's sentience, as when it moved on its own[51] or prevented Odin from lifting it.[24] Mjolnir could even temporarily project a physical form capable of talking, though this power required a great deal of energy and would likely be at least a hundred years before it could be done again.[51] As the "God of Hammers," Mjolnir created a feminine avatar out of divine lightning to wield itself and confront Thor.[1]
Worthiness Enchantment[]
One of the hammer's most notable attributes is its worthiness enchantment. This spell surrounds Mjolnir and prevents it from being wielded by anyone save those who have been found worthy. To anyone else, Mjolnir can't be lifted from the ground, as if it were immeasurably heavy even though its actual weight is about 42.3 pounds. Those who are deemed worthy are able to wield Thor's powers and access to the hammer's countless mystical attributes and powers such as manipulation of the fundamental forces of the universes, including the electromagnetic spectrum[52] and gravity.[53]
The enchantment is so powerful that even with the hammer cut in half, it's still in effect.[54] As the true master of Mjolnir, Thor can also will unto others the ability to wield the mystical hammer. Odin himself can also alter the enchantment, allowing somebody the hammer wouldn't naturally deem worthy to use it,[55] or preventing somebody, even Thor, from lifting it.[56] The hammer can be lifted, though its powers not used, in the vacuum of space, where no gravity can keep it down.[57][58] The enchantment can be altered, thus allowing somebody not worthy to wield it, with the use of reality-warping.[27] The enchantment may not be effective in other dimensions, such asLimbo.[59]
The worthiness enchantment primarily applies to living beings who try to lift the hammer directly. The android copy of theAir Walker was able to pick up and hold Mjolnir,[60] as was theAwesome Android,[61] but neither of them gained any of Thor's powers while holding Mjolnir.
Machines or magical constructs that are being controlled by living beings have been able to lift Mjolnir and wield it as a weapon, but doing so has also not endowed them or their operators with Thor's powers. Those things which have lifted Mjolnir include a giant robot controlled byZarko,[62] an atomic-powered hydraulic hoist remotely-controlled by theCobra,[63] an iron glove conjured forth byDoctor Strange,[64] an unhuman lava-formed hand created by the magic of theLava ManWitch Doctor Jinku,[65] and a giant earth-and-stone hand created by the sorceressLinnea.[66] However, whenPegas tried to use mighty cranes to lift Mjolnir while on the planetPangoria, their booms all broke under the strain,[67] and attempts by theUS Army to move Mjolnir after it crash-landed inOklahoma[68] also only resulted in damaged equipment.
Living beings who have been worthy can become unworthy due to outside influences, but it's uncertain how negatively affected they have to be before becoming unworthy. For example, when thePower Prism (Kimonn) once claimed Thor as its host body, the Odinson was tainted by its evil, became no longer worthy, and was soon unable to hold Mjolnir.[69] However, when Thor, while under the influence of a love spell that compelled him to obeyLorelei, struck theLady Sif, this was not sufficient to make him unworthy.[70]
Return to its wielder's hand enchantment[]
Mjolnir has also been enchanted so that it will always return to the hand of the person who throws it. However, there are conflicting accounts as to what would happen if that person's hands were both occupied when the hammer returned. On one occasion, after being thrown while aboard a ship at sea, the hammer tried to return to Thor's grasp but, finding both of its master's hands occupied with holding up the ship's falling smokestack, the hammer settled obediently and within reach on the deck.[71] On another occasion, when seeking to free himself from the love-spell that Loki had cast upon him, Thor hurled Mjolnir up into the sky, then grabbed Loki by the neck with his left hand, and then reminded Loki that, by Odin's decree, the hammer must return to his hand and would let nothing bar the way, not even the head of Loki. Thor further stated that, when Mjolnir returned to his hand, Loki's body would be headless because his head would be dust. Thus motivated, Loki quickly undid the spell, and Thor caught Mjolnir in his right hand.[70]
Mjolnir and its user share a mystical link that allows the latter to command the hammer. If the wielder's will is strong enough, the hammer can pass through nearly any barrier to reach them should they so choose; Mjolnir will even carve its way through the very center of entire planets to get back to its master.[72]
Transformation of its wielder's body enchantment[]
Due to an enchantment placed on it by Odin in recent times, Mjolnir was able to transform Thor between his godly form and his mortal form ofDonald Blake, with the hammer usually assuming the form of an old wooden cane. Another provision of this enchantment required that Thor could not be out of physical contact with Mjolnir for more than sixty seconds without spontaneously reverting to his mortal form.[5] Years later, that transformation enchantment was removed from Mjolnir by Odin who transferred it toStormbreaker so that the noble warriorBeta Ray Bill could assume his trueKorbinite form,[73] something that he had lost when he was changed into his people's champion.[74]
Later, whenMarnot, in order to hide Thor from theDark Gods who were searching for him on Earth,[75] revived the nearly-dead Thor and gave him the mortal form ofJake Olson,[76] the old rule was reinstated, and Thor would revert back to being Jake Olson if he were out of contact with Mjolnir for sixty seconds.[77]
Powers granted unto its wielder[]
- Weather Manipulation: Wielding Mjolnir grants its master the ability to control the base elements of a storm, i.e. rain, wind, thunder, lightning and more (although Thor can control them by himself, it seems that Mjolnir boosts his ability of controlling the base elements of a storm). They can create giant raging electrical storms complete with thunder, lightning, hurricane-force winds, tornadoes, blizzards, tidal waves, exploding volcanoes, earthquakes and torrential rains across entire planets at a moment's notice. It can also create any of these phenomena individually. Another aspect of this power allows them to stop any of these weather conditions instantly as well. Its user can create storms on a planetary wide scale or larger if needed, and is not limited to the normal limits of Mother Nature and can go beyond and defy what natural weather can do such as creating rain in space where there is no atmosphere. The ability of Mjolnir's wielder to control and create storms extends to any and all storms as he has been shown to control and create raging temporal storms in time, create Solar Flares, powerful stellar winds in space and so on.
- Flight: Mjolnir's user is capable of hurling Mjolnir with great force and, by holding onto the leather thong, is capable of flying through the air at tremendous speeds. While in an Earth-like atmosphere, Thor generally flew at roughly the Speed of Sound, roughly 770 miles per hour. Thor could fly so fast that he is invisible to the naked eye.[78] He has been clocked flying at three times the speed of light,[79] and is capable of achieving speeds far greater than that. It has been established that the speed of Thor's hammer transcends both time and space.[80] Mjolnir can also perform complicated maneuvers in the air,[81] and change course in mid-flight at the speed of thought.[82] By spinning Mjolnir at high speeds over his head, Thor has been able to hover in midair.
- Energy Projection: With Mjolnir, its wielder can project powerful mystical beams of energy. He can even channel energies for stronger energy attacks.
- God-Blast: Thor is capable of channeling different amounts of his godly energies in combination with the mystical properties of Mjolnir can be channeled through his hammer for a single massive energy beam known as the God-Blast.[49][83] His godly energy is so vast and powerful, that even when reinforced with theBelt of Strength, which should double Mjolnir's fortification and durability, when Thor channeled his godly energies into Mjolnir to destroy the Brain Dome of the mighty CelestialExitar,[49] the hammer shattered from the amount of power Thor channeled. The God-Blast is so immensely powerful and destructive that it has proven capable of destroying beings as large and as powerful asGalactus, who was forced to flee for his life.[84] Thor can send the God-Blast to the core ofEgo the Living Planet andAlter Ego and render both comatose.[85] He used the God-Blast to defeatSurtur andYmir.[86] Thor used the God-Blast to stop theJuggernaut (Cain Marko) while he was in motion and to push him back, letting fall him in a hole.[87] Thor used the God-Blast to defeat the skymotherMajeston Zelia, who absorbed the Odin-Force.[88]
- Anti-Force: Thor is capable of producing an indescribably powerful blast known as the Anti-Force which is capable of annihilating entire planets.[88] This blast is so powerful that with just a single emission, Thor was capable of putting down and seemingly killing the powerful entityMangog himself.[89]
- Thermo-Blast: Thor has the ability to produce a universe shaking Thermo-Blast capable of decimating even entire planets and beings as powerful as Ego the Living Planet.[90]
- Energy Sensing: Mjolnir can detect practically all types of energy.[91][92][93] It reacts particularly strongly to evil psychic energy,[94] and supernatural energy.[95] Mjolnir can also track down the energy pattern of someone in hiding,[96] detect anyAsgardian's aura by their electrons discharge,[97] and can sense and track the energy radiating from mystical objects.[98]
- Energy Absorption and Redirection: Thor is able to use Mjolnir to absorb any energy blasts directed towards him as means of attack. Once the energy is absorbed, Thor can redirect it back amplified many times over towards the source and/or use it as a weapon of his own. Thor has used Mjolnir to reflect the vast and hazardous amounts of energy being emitted by the biological weapon implanted within theWasp's body by theSkrulls back at her while all of Earth's other super humans were helpless. Thor used Mjolnir to absorb Ultron's entire energy source, theSilver Surfer'sPower Cosmic,[99]Sky-Walker's Cosmic Tempest,[100] radioactive energy,[101] magnetism[67] such asMagneto's personal magnetic field,[102] and a portion ofPangoria's planetary magnetic field. Mjolnir's ability to absorb energy is so powerful he managed to absorb, contain and redirect the entire energy of theNull Bomb, which was powerful enough to destroy the entire galaxy,[103] absorb mystical energies, such asPluto'smystic flame.[104] He was even able to absorb a portion of the mystical energies from everygodpantheon on Earth,[105] and absorbed the electromagnetic energies of the Celestial Mother-ship.[106]
- Teleportation: By grasping Mjolnir by the leather thong and rapidly swirling it, Thor can channel energies for the purpose ofWormholes through means of a vortex[107] and in this vortex time has no meaning, which means he and others can pass through it to their destinations instantaneously.[108] He can open gateways which allow him to travel across locations no matter how great the distance within moments or even across entiredimensions, as he does when he travels from Asgard to Earth and vice-versa.[109][110] Thor has used Mjolnir to rip the fabric of the universe to send Surtur and Ymir to the Death Dimension[86] and send an entire population to Limbo,[111] Thor can also use Mjolnir to travel through portals anywhere within the same dimension.[112]
- Matter Manipulation: By spinning Mjolnir in a precise manner at cyclotronic speeds, Thor can manipulate matter from a molecular level to a vast scale, which allows him to create other configurations and even allows him to transmute the elements themselves. This ability was evident when he transmuted theAbsorbing Man's wood and iron body to the gas helium.[95]
- Nether World Power: Thor can use Mjolnir to tap into the power of the Nether Worlds (dark dimensions).[113]
- Cosmic Energy: Mjolnir allows Thor to produce and control Cosmic Energy to an unknown limit for a variety of purposes.[114]
- Electromagnetic Spectrum Manipulation: Thor was able to absorb and manipulate the electromagnetic energies of the Celestial Mothership.[106]
- Invisibility and Intangibility: Thor can turn himself or others, using Mjolnir, completely intangible and/or invisible.[115] An offshoot of this ability is that Thor can use Mjolnir to completely disrupt the phasing abilities of super humans such as theVision,Shadowcat etc.[116]
- Event Recall: Thor can use Mjolnir to recall past events.[117]
- Transmigration of Souls: Thor's hammer has the ability to manipulate souls.[118]
- Life Force Absorption: Thor used this ability on the super villain thePresence, who was forced to surrender to prevent himself from being reduced to a lifeless husk.[119]
- Illusion Detection: Mjolnir can distinguish images, holograms, and different illusions from reality: Thor once commanded the hammer to strike the demon lord Mephisto, who was hiding among false images of himself.[120]
- Interdimensional Messaging: Thor can used Mjolnir to send psychic messages between the nine realms.
- Transformation: When Thor was living on Earth under hismortal guise, he could use Mjolnir to transfer from his Donald Blake persona into Thor and vice versa. Thor loses this ability when Odin permanently separates the two personas. The transformation returns after Odin's death and Ragnarök restore Donald Blake to existence, allowing him to draw Thor back to Earth from the void once he finds the hammer, but for a time the two share an existence where they are distinct individuals who nevertheless have a similar memory.
- Immunity to Other Forces: Even without activating the powers of Mjolnir, Thor's hammer, enchanted by Odin, is impervious to nearly all forms of change, as he himself claimed that no power in the universe but the All-Father's could affect Mjolnir, shown whenAmora's magical efforts during her first confrontation with Thor to change it into a deadly serpent availed her naught.
- Allspeak: Thanks to the Allspeak, the wielder of Mjolnir can communicate with and be understood by all races.
- Compassion: After becoming the All-Father and inheriting control of the enchantment, Thor gaveToranos "the power to hold the storm back," forcing a sense of morality on his foe.[47]
- Chronokinesis:Thor, at one point, had the ability to use Mjolnir to travel through time.[62] By spinning Mjolnir faster than light, Thor could open a portal to the fourth dimension of time to travel to the past and the future.[62][121][122] Thor no longer possesses this ability because he voluntarily let the temporal energies of the hammer be drained whenImmortus asked Thor to use Mjolnir to save the planetPhantus and bring it back out of Limbo and into the space-time continuum.[59][123]
- Force Fields: With Mjolnir, Thor was capable of creating powerful barriers, force fields, and vortexes that were impenetrable. Not even Earth's most advanced weapons could weaken Thor's barrier field that shielded theU.N. Headquarters.[124] Thor stated that he could have contained a cosmic flash attack fromStellaris, this blast was strong enough to destroyMidgard.[125] These vortexes and barriers were so immensely durable that Thor was able to prevent a live bomb from detonating, which is so powerful it was said capable of destroying a fifth of thePrime Marvel Universe.[126]
- Resurrection: While channeling his power through Mjolnir, Thor was able to resurrect a man he had wrongly killed.[127]
- Alpha Particles: Thor's hammer could harness Alpha Particles from the atmosphere and could use it to atomize any weaponry.[121]
- Negation of Mystic Energy: He used this ability on theJuggernaut himself to negate the mystical energies that grant him his mystical invulnerability, allowing him to defeat Juggernaut in combat. He was also able to stopMephisto from takinghuman souls to theDark Dimension.[120]
- Undead Lethality: As a former religious relic, Mjolnir was lethal to undead. Thor once threw Mjolnir at avampire, with contact causing the creature to burst into flame and crumble to dust.[128]
Alternate Reality Versions

![]() ![]() | InEarth-1610,Thor has multiple hammers which carry the name Mjolnir, and he can wield whichever he deems fit. His original hammer was forged byOdin and carried with it a piece of Asgard so that even if Ragnarök ever took place, Asgard could be reborn. This hammer shares the same powers as the classic version of the hammer, but can also teleport objects and people of a vast quantity and does not have the worthiness restriction, allowing anyone to use it. When Ragnarök inevitably occurred, Thor was reborn on Earth as a human being named Thorlief Goleman and eventually worked for theE.D.I. as a test subject for theirBio-Mech Suit, which came with an axe-hammer hybrid. At Thor's suggestion, the hammer actually housed the battery which powers the suit.[129] Thor became a super-powered humanitarian, using the suit as his source of his powers since he was no longer a god.[130] ThroughLoki's deceit, Thor was stripped of the harness and hammer, rendering him powerless. Odin was eventually reborn, and thus Thor would regain his godhood. Odin then gave Thor a second version of Mjolnir that resembled the Earth-made axe-hammer.[131] During a brief battle with anAlternate Universe, Mjolnir was taken byHyperion and used against Thor. Hyperion, thinking Thor beaten, simply dropped the hammer as he no longer needed it.[132] Thor eventually went back to wielding his original Asgardian hammer. After theUltimates battledUltron andMagneto, Thor lost his hammer to Magneto, who was able to manipulate it because iron was used in its construction.[133] Magneto then wielded it as a sign of power while he caused a flood which killed many inhabitants of New York. Thor sacrificed himself toValhalla in order to save the life ofValkyrie. When the remaining heroes defeated and killed Magneto, Valkyrie became the new wielder of Mjolnir.[134] Eventually theDefenders managed to steal it from her and deliver it to their master, Loki. Loki then used Mjolnir to transport his Troll Army from Asgard to New York in a plot to bring Thor back from Valhalla. Thor inevitably returned when Loki murdered Valkyrie, and she took his place in Valhalla. Thor once again wielded Mjolnir and the heroes were able to defeat Loki.[135] Shortly thereafter,Gregory Stark attempted to cause unrest in Korea. When he was confronted by the Ultimates, he managed to take Mjolnir from Thor and use it to subdue him as well asCaptain America, before slamming the ground with it causing a massive shock wave which stunned everyone within range. Thor managed to regain Mjolnir and killed Gregory with a lightning bolt.[136] When theChildren of Tomorrow slaughtered the Asgardians and initiated a secondRagnarök, Thor hid his sonModi, in the Room with No Doors along with Mjolnir, in hopes that his son may one day emerge and restore Asgard to its former glory.[137] WithYggdrasil drained of the Odinforce, Thor has become mortal again. WhenTony Stark returned an enhanced version of Thor's former power harness, he once again wielded a similar Axe-Hammer that was given to him by the E.D.I.[138] This newest version of Mjolnir is "fully compatible with all Iron Man power sources".[139] Though the hammer shares all the powers of his magical hammer, Thor still feels like he has become less than what he was.[140] Thor's son Modi, corrupted by theWorld Tree returned to earth with the Uru Mjolnir in a quest to establish his kingdom on Earth. When Thor slew his son in combat, the Thunder god continued to use the Stark Model of Mjolnir as well as the linking bio-suit.[141] After the clash of Earth-1610 and Earth-616 destroyed theMultiverse due to theIncursions,[142]Battleworld was formed from the remnants of the destroyed realities.[143] Thor was recreated on it, joining theThor Corps, with his axe-hammer hybrid Mjolnir now fully Asgardian and with a worthiness enchantment.[144] After the destruction of Battleworld, Mjolnir was capable of surviving, finding its way to the rebirthed Earth-616, landing in the ruinedCity of Asgard.[145] After learning about the Mjolnir from theUnseen, Thor of Earth-616 went to Asgard in an attempt to retrieve it[146] after becoming unworthy of wielding his reality's Mjolnir.[147] However, Thor was captured by theCollector and brought aboard his ship. The Collector told Thor that he wanted to wield the Mjolnir, but it had killed anyone who attempted to lift it with the exception of the Collector himself, though the Collector was still unable to budge it. This had forced the Collector to take the entire City of Asgard in order to bring the hammer with him.[148] Thor and the Collector weren't the only ones after the hammer, though. The Mad TitanThanos sent his minionsProxima Midnight andBlack Swan to help a unknown cloaked individual retrieve the hammer as a tribute in order to curry Thanos' favor.[149] A fight eventually ensued between the three sides over the future ownership of the hammer.[150] Thor ended the feud when he activated the hammer's teleportation power to transport himself, the City of Asgard, and his allies away. Feeling unworthy of the hammer, Thor chose to leave the hammer in the City of Asgard so no other villain could abuse its power. Days later,[23]Volstagg appeared and claimed the hammer for himself, proclaiming that the Nine Realms needed a new kind of Thor and he would become that Thor, namely the War Thor.[151] The hammer gave Volstagg incredible power, but it also caused him to become uncontrollable with rage and lashed out at anyone he perceived as an enemy, even allies and innocent civilians.[152] Thor (Jane Foster) eventually convinced Volstagg to let go of his anger and give up being the War Thor. Volstagg gave up the hammer, and the Odinson ordered the hammer to return to the Old City of Asgard where it belonged. The hammer obeyed and went back to Old Asgard in the Asgard-realm.[153] Odinson left his goatToothgnasher in charge of guarding the hammer so it didn't corrupt anyone else. The hammer later changed its mind about being separated from Volstagg and made its way toAsgardia where Volstagg was. It was once again able to tempt Volstagg with its power, transforming him back into the War Thor. Volstagg flew off with the hammer and traveled through the Ten Realms while wondering what his next move should be. After being ambushed by Toothgnasher, Volstagg landed in the old city of Asgard and almost came to blows with Toothgnasher, but they unexpectedly encountered the monsterMangog. Mangog killed Toothgnasher and proclaimed that he would bring the ultimate judgment upon the Asgardians. Volstagg refused to let that happen and prepared to do battle with Mangog.[154] Volstagg was no match for Mangog, though, and was brutally beaten down. The Mjolnir of the Ultimate Universe ended up destroyed by Mangog.[155] An alternate version of the hammer reappeared in its home reality at some point.[156] During the War of the Realms, Jane Foster picked up the smoldered remains of the hammer and managed to transform into her Thor form once again, though she struggled to prevent the hammer from causing her become uncontrollable with anger like it did to Volstagg. She aided Thor and his past and future selves in rescuing Odin and Frigga who were being held captive by Malekith. When the hammer was about to fall apart, Jane used the last of its power to destroy one ofLaufey's eyes. When the hammer returned to Jane, it fell apart, but its pieces then merged together to become a goldenvambrace that attached itself to Jane's arm.[32] | Ultimates #5 |

So far, Rick Jones has only been shown wielding Mjolnir once, when he was a very old man. Following Thor's death, Mjolnir was lost for decades, buried deep beneath the grounds ofAvengers Mansion, until Rick's great-granddaughterJanis found its handle sticking out of the ground and was able to pull it out. However, when her "Gramps" found out about it, he told her to put it down and never touch it again. Rick later put Mjolnir on display as one of the relics in his trophy room. | Hulk: Future Imperfect #1 |

The mystic hammer was then retrieved byThoth-Amon's winged messenger and used by the black sorcerer to wreak havoc in the Hyborian kingdoms. InStygia, after the fight with Thoth-Amon, a dying Thor gave the mystic hammer to Conan, begging him to offer it to Crom, as a symbol of love that deities of a later age will share with benevolent mankind. The Cimmerian swore to do his bidding and ascended Crom's grey mound with Mjolnir. | What If? #39 |
![]() | OnEarth-97161, a sliver of Mjolnir was tapped off byToothgnasher. This sliver becameFrogjolnir. | Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers #1 |
![]() | OnEarth-199999,Thor has been entrusted with the mighty hammer Mjolnir, which was forged in the heart of a dying star. When Thor was banished to Earth,Odin placed the worthiness enchantment on it and thus the hammer's use became restricted to the worthy, leaving even theHulk unable to lift it from the ground. The enchantment is represented by the appearance of a Celtic trefoil knot on the side of the hammer's head. At Thor's initial banishment, he himself was unable to wield the hammer or access his powers until he had proven himself worthy of it. The hammer was found byS.H.I.E.L.D.,[159] deemed as an0-8-4,[160] and studied. Once Thor had proven his worth, Mjolnir itself returned to him of its own accord and his powers were restored, though he required the hammer to achieve his full strength.[159] Although indestructible and with unmatched power, the hammer has proven unable to break Captain America's shield due to itsvibranium composition. Thor has taken advantage of the hammer's worthiness enchantment at least once, setting it on top ofLoki's chest to pin him to the ground.[161] Thor and the otherAvengers later played a 'game' where the rest of the team attempted and failed to lift it from the table where Thor had placed it, with onlySteve Rogers able to make it move slightly, even if he couldn't pick it up. The worthiness enchantment later helped the Avengers confirm that they could trust theVision to aid them againstUltron when the Vision managed to lift the hammer where all of them had failed to do so.[162] While seeking his father after Loki banished him from Asgard, Thor confronted his sisterHela for the first time, only for her to destroy Mjolnir in their confrontation. Later discoveries revealed that Hela had been the first wielder of Mjolnir in her role as Odin's executioner before Odin banished her out of fear of her power, although Thor later learned that he was able to channel the powers of Mjolnir without his hammer.[163] Years later, Mjolnir reforged itself forJane Foster, transforming her into the Mighty Thor. It was able to stave off her stage 4 cancer, but weakened her mortal form's ability to stave the cancer off every time she harnessed the hammer's abilities. After she finally succumbed to her cancer, Thor reclaimed the hammer.[164] | Thor (April 21, 2011) |

Destruction[]
Although an incredibly powerful weapon, Mjolnir is not indestructible. It has been damaged several times over the years:
- A force beam from theDestroyer sliced it in two inJourney Into Mystery #118. Mjolnir was then repaired inJourney Into Mystery #120.
- TheMolecule Man dispelled the atomic bonds between the hammer's molecules, vaporizing Mjolnir inAvengers #215. Mjolnir was later restored inAvengers #216.
- The hammer shattered after channeling an incredible amount of energy at the CelestialExitar inThor #388 and was restored by the Celestials'Replicoid inThor #389.
- The Dark GodPerrikus sliced Mjolnir in half with a magical scythe inThor (Vol. 2) #10. Mjolnir was restored inThor (Vol. 2) #11.

- The hammer was destroyed in a fight between Thor and his grandfatherBor inThor (Vol. 3) #600. Thor, to repair it, neededDoctor Strange's help, who reconstructed it by channeling Thor'sOdin-Force into its fragments, inThor (Vol. 3) #602.
- The hammer was destroyed inMighty Thor (Vol. 2) #705, after Jane tied the Mangog up with chains originally created to bind theFenris Wolf, and fastened them to Mjolnir so she could hurl the monster into the Sun. Mjolnir was restored inWar of the Realms #6.
- The hammer was shattered by Thor inThor (Vol. 6) #23 in order to purge it of the God Tempest's corrupted essence.Angela collected the shards and restored it with the help of theAngels, leaving it covered in glowing golden cracks. InThor Annual (Vol. 5) #1, Thor used theAllpower to fully repair Mjolnir and removed the cracks.

Mjolnir's Duplicates[]
Thor's sacred uru hammer has been duplicated with varying degrees of success over the years:
- Three unnamed duplicates of Mjolnir was created byProfessor Zaxton using his duplicating machine,[227] all of which eventually faded away into the nothingness from which they came.
- Unnamed duplicate of Mjolnir was created byOrikal forUlik at the behest ofKing Geirrodur.[166]
- War-Hammer - is an exact copy of Mjolnir by order ofOdin forRed Norvell,[228] who had once with the powers of Thor claimed Mjolnir and sacrificed himself to save Asgard.[169]
- Stormbreaker - was forged byEitri and theDwarves ofNidavellir by order ofOdin forBeta Ray Bill[229] after he proved worthy to wield Mjolnir.[168]
- After Thor defeated an unarmedhumanoid antibody ofExitar with Mjolnir, more humanoid antibodies swarmed him -- all armed with similar hammers.[230]
- Thunderstrike - the enchanted mace that was given toEric Masterson by Thor,[231] cause he proved worthy to wield Mjolnir[170] and served Asgard for many years before being returned to Earth.
- Kevin Masterson, Eric Masterson's son, carried a toy version of Thunderstrike[232] because Thor had so often saved his father's life.
- Mjolnir Replica - created byTony Stark,Reed Richards, and"Hank Pym" for thecyborg clone of Thor.[233]

- Chad Hammer wielded his own hammer developed byRoxxon, known asMjolnir Premium. This hammer was a technological device that could only be used by its owner through a fingerprint scanner and could connect to the internet and other Roxxon products.[239]
Notes
- The hammer's name is pronounced "mmyol'-neer".[citation needed]
- Mjolnir was classified by theInitiative as an "Omega Class Weapon," at the level of theTactigon.[240]
- TheWorthy, powerful warriors affiliated with theSerpent, wielded 8 similar powerful hammers, those being:
- Over the years, the enchantments on Mjolnir have sometimes functioned differently than they should have, usually at times that caused problems for Thor. Strangely, the Odinson never seemed to notice that his hammer was behaving inconsistently.
- In early Thor stories, when the thunder god had been out of contact with Mjolnir for 60 seconds and had reverted to his human form of Donald Blake, Mjolnir would remain in its true form.[5] At some later point,[citation needed] the situation changed and Mjolnir would transform into its wooden cane form at the same time that Thor became Blake. However, in some later stories, Mjolnir was shown remaining in its hammer form even after Thor reverted to being Blake.[57]
- The 60 second time limit sometimes seemed to only be in effect if Thor was on or nearEarth and in theEarth dimension,[241][168] but some stories showed the involuntary transformation occurring when Thor was far away from Earth, either in space or in another dimension.[citation needed]
- In some stories, instead of returning to Thor's hand after being thrown, Mjolnir would return to the spot from which it had been thrown by him.[57]
- On one occasion, Thor was able to transform himself into Blake and Mjolnir into its cane form, but somehow allowed Blake to retain extraordinary strength.[242]
- The idea that Mjolnir was 22.7 inches long and weighed weighed 42.3 pounds was first stated on the "Thor's hammer" card that was #128 in the 1991Marvel Universe Cards, series II. Whether this length and/or weight are canon is uncertain.
