Now thatThor : Love and Thunderhas make it , it ’s time to depend to the future to see what kind of news report everyone ’s favorite hammer - wielding Avenger can face next . It seems almost unbelievable that Thor would be the first original Avenger to receive a 4th moving picture and depending on how   this end , it could result to a fifth .

MCU films care to take divine guidance from comics and mold them to conform to the ongoing narrative of the franchise . For instance , Thor : Love and Thundertakes inspiration from two unlike news report and ruffle them together to form something new . It would be fun to see how the MCU could adapt other storylines for the God of Thunder in a similar mode .

Fear Itself

Fear Itselfwas a comic book result by Matt Fraction and   Stuart Immonen that see various hammers rain down from the sky . These hammer gave the users godlike world power and were sent by Cul Borson , the Norse God of Fear . Cul is unveil early on on to be Odin ’s older brother and the unfeigned All - Father of Asgard .

Odin is currently dead in theMCUand Asgard has Valkyrie as King . But a version ofFear Itselfcould still play out in the MCU . Odin ’s past tense has already been revealed to be a Trygve Halvden Lie thanks toThor : Ragnarok , so a long - lost brother coming to rein havoc and fear on Thor could make a compelling pic . Cul has an interesting spark after as well and could make for a fun new character in the MCU .

Mangog

The Mangog is a fictional character make by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby who was filled with rage when Odin killed his entire kinsperson and became an unstoppable rage monster . The force of the Mangog is enough to kill every single god twice over . In his first appearance , he was only stopped when Odin resurrected his family , which quell his anger . While Thor did n’t turn a loss , it was close .

true the Mangog could be a difficult villain to adapt due to the raw big businessman it ’s meant to handle . Without Odin to quell the fad of the Mangog , the denizens of New Asgard would be helpless to stop him . It ’s a mere level to accommodate , the Mangog comes to Asgard and Thor fight him , but the stakes could be dependable for a last hooray for Chris Hemsworth .

The Ballad of Beta Ray Bill

Beta Ray Bill is a beloved comic book fictitious character , created by   Walt Simonson , that mass have wanted to see adapted for a long time . The story ofThe Ballad of Beta Ray Billbegins when Bill is able-bodied to maintain that hammer that only Thor could . Bill being worthy of the hammer is often cited as one of the most shocking twists in all of Thor comics .

At the ending of the story , Bill meet a hammer of his own name Stormbreaker . Well in the MCU , Thor has that weapon , even though it resemble Ultimate Thor ’s pound , and you do n’t have to be worthy to manage it . So doing Bill ’s story verbatim might be tough . It would be worth it , however , to see the beloved character come to the freehanded covert .

The Tenth Realm

The 10th Realmwas a standoff - in to the comic , compose by Al Ewing and Jason Aaron , toOriginal Sin . The story goes that a tenth kingdom , Heven , is bring out to Thor and Loki when they learn their sister , whom they did n’t know existed , was alive . Heven is household to the angels and the realm was locked away by Odin after a deadly warfare between them and the Asgardians .

The long - lost baby subroutine has been done thanks toThor : Ragnarok ’s version of Hela . But , just because they could n’t make Angela a girl of Odin , does n’t mean they could n’t reveal the tenth realm on the arm of   Yggdrasil . The motion-picture show seem to be moving aside from the realm , but this could be a fun direction to go in , should they give to the Norse region sincethere are plenty more comic reality for Thor to confab .

The Surtur Saga

One of   Walt Simonson ’s most famousThor stories , and one of Ranker ’s favorites , wasThe Surtur Saga . The account bring a year to completely unfold and by the time it had terminate , Surtur was one of Thor ’s most minatory villain . Surtur operated behind the scenes at first as he prepared his sword and sent many enemies for Thor to face , waiting for the perfect metre to mint .

Surtur was used as a plot of land gimmick inThor : Ragnarokas his   only purpose in the cinema was to do his part in the prophesized Ragnarok . Perhaps fire whale can also breathe in the vacancy of space like Asgardians seem to be subject of . If the Martin Luther King Jr. of Muspelheim is still alive , he could be a great villain to use in a next Thor film .

The Devourer King

One of the most late Thor run by Donny Cates and Nic Klein was calledThe Devourer King . A muscular force call The Black Winter is raging across the galaxy and Galactus comes to Asgard to speak the assistance of the new All - Father Thor . Galactus make Thor his harbinger and together they set out to save the universe of discourse before the Black Winter destroys everything . The book is very fresh reader - friendly for those looking to get into Thor .

In the MCU , Thor is no longer king of Asgard , but that ’s not a prerequisite for this story to exist . However , by the time this story comes to fruition , audiences should be aware that Galactus be in the MCU at least . They do n’t have to make Thor a herald of Galactus but it would be less play without it . The Black Winter is on the button the kind of potent cosmic threat that Thor was made for and the MCU should take more advantage of Thor ’s stem before Chris Hemsworth bows out .

King Thor

While there is a comic calledKing Thor , this is more an on-going story thread within Jason Aaron ’s long - running Thor epic . Frequently , the comedian would dart forward eon into the future to see an old All - Father Thor at the remainder of everything . His only wish is for New Midgard to rest animated while the stars around them all cash in one’s chips out .

It ’s unconvincing thatThor : Love and Thunderwould follow out these flash - forwards in their adaptation , but possibly someday a King Thor film could be made . King Thor would have to come with his granddaughter   Atli , Ellisiv , and Frigg who are beloved characters in their own right . The tale of sure-enough - man Thor fighting for the future of a buy the farm planet with his granddaughter by his side could be an epical tale to tell .

War of the Realms

The War of the Realmswas the last story in Jason Aaron ’s long - execute Thor epic poem . Malekith had been engage a war across the ten realms and lastly came to Midgard . The hero of Earth banded together with all sort of magical creatures to resist them back and end Malekith ’s bloody war once and for all .

The War of the Realmshas everything a Thor fan could mayhap want . If the MCU wanted to truly conform the comic , then they should make it an Avengers movie , rather than a Thor solo moving picture . The major hurdle for adapting this story would be finding a replacement for Malekith as the fundamental baddie since he snuff it inThor : The Dark World . Or , they could revive him if Christopher Eccleston was unforced to give it another go . It would also give the MCU a hazard to go back to the nine realm and explore the ones audience have n’t consider yet .
