Thor#7 opens in a little town of Broxton Oklahoma ( where the new city of Asgard used to be ) with a railcar car-mechanic name Adam Aziz discovering Mjolnir after it crashes down on Earth . Thor ( via a Corvus corax ) tell Lady Sif that he threw his hammer down to Earth to test a theory . As Thor warns Beta Ray Bill of the visual sense he insure , Iron Man arrives on the scene in Broxton . Thor actually wrote Iron Man ’s phone number on the pound as a contour of revenge for thehero authorship on Mjolnir previously . As Iron Man tries to keep the local composure , Adam reaches for the malleus and actually cope to pick it up , transforming into a young variant of Thor .

So , how does a regular mechanic become suitable ? It is n’t exactly clear . However , a ribbing forThor#8suggests that something off-the-wall might be going on with the hammer and that Adam might not be the only human in Broxton who ’s capable of lifting it . Plus , Thor#9teases the coming back of Thor ’s deadly form - Donald Blake . So , there ’s definitely more than meets the heart when it comes to Mjolnir .

Genevieve O’Reilly as Mon Mothma looks back on Chandrila during Leida’s wedding reception, edited with circular imagery.

With Thor ’s hammer getting backbreaking for him and seemingly lightheaded for everyone else , perhaps he ’s using Broxton as a testing reason to see just how much the enchantment on Mjolnir has shifted . Regardless , it ’s pretty amazing to see a regular mechanic lift Mjolnir and become worthy . Will Adam stick around in that form ? It ’s dubious . But , the scene shows that when it comes to being worthy , you do n’t need to be Thor , the God to Thunder to lift the pounding - at least for now . Thor#7is in entrepot now .
