Andrea Lagerreta anunciando el nuevo look de Iron Man...

-Marvel anunció hoy que en próximos meses, Thor será reinventado como una mujer dentro del universo principal. La nueva versión del personaje (cuya identidad aún es desconocida) tendrá su propia serie en Octubre: THOR, por Jason Aaron y Russell Dauterman. En el comunicado de prensa, los de Marvel admiten que la decisión es en parte motivada por su deseo de satisfacer a una audiencia que, si bien siempre ha existido, en años recientes ha crecido y se ha hecho más vocal en su deseo de ser representada: el público femenino.

This October, Marvel Comics evolves once again in one of the most shocking and exciting changes ever to shake one of Marvel’s "big three" – Captain American, Iron Man and Thor – Marvel Comics will be introducing an all-new THOR, GOD OF THUNDER. No longer is the classic male hero able to hold the mighty hammer, Mjölnir, a brand new female hero will emerge will who will be worthy of the name THOR. Who is she? Where did she come from and what is her connection to Asgard and the Marvel Universe?

"The inscription on Thor’s hammer reads ‘Whosoever holds this hammer, if HE be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.’ Well it’s time to update that inscription," says Marvel editor Wil Moss. "The new Thor continues Marvel’s proud tradition of strong female characters like Captain Marvel, Storm, Black Widow and more. And this new Thor isn’t a temporary female substitute – she’s now the one and only Thor, and she is worthy!"

Series writer Jason Aaron emphasizes, "This is not She-Thor. This is not Lady Thor. This is not Thorita. This is THOR. This is the THOR of the Marvel Universe. But it’s unlike any Thor we’ve ever seen before."

THOR is the latest in the ever-growing and long list of female-centric titles that continues to invite new readers into the Marvel Universe. This female THOR is the 8th title to feature a lead female protagonist and aims to speak directly to an audience that long was not the target for Super Hero comic books in America: women and girls

Y en otro de esos momentos en los que YA NO ESTOY SEGURO SI TODO ESTO ESTÁ PASANDO REALMENTE EN LA VIDA REAL, el anuncio fue hecho en The View, algo así como el HOY gabacho.

Aquí un video WHOOPI GOLDBERG HABLANDO DE THOR EN TELEVISIÓN NACIONAL para ayudarles a precibir el rompimiento del material que compone la realidad.

ESAD RIBIC HAZME UN HIJO

Además, mostraron otro diseño del Thor Machín, también por Esad Ribic. Presumiblemente así es como quedará tras Original Sin: sin un brazo (acorde a la versión futurista que ha aparecido en su serie) y portando su hacha Jarnbjorndsjmdnfjdfn, quizás tras haber hecho algo que lo hizo indigno del martillo.
