In the news this year, we learnt that Thor 5 is in production with a more powerful villain than Thor has ever faced.
Indeed, #thor has been an Avenger and a protector of the Nine Realms throughout the years. Importantly, the Thunder God has struggled with worthiness and powerful villains especially since War of Realms.
In Thor: The Devourer King (2020), the Thunder God is finally King of Asgard. However, he must contend with the Black Winter and become Herald of Galactus. Also, Thor suffers from worthiness as Mjolnir feels heavier in his hands.
In a harrowing moment during Donny Cates run, the Black Winter rots Yggdrasil, the World Tree that represents the Nine Realms Thor is sworn to protect. Certainly, it shows the scale of the danger the Herald of Thunder faces with Galactus.
Truly a decisive moment with the Thunder God at the height of his popularity in fandom.
