Metas & MutantsNEWSFLASH: Jane Foster is also Thor, get over itNo sugarcoating this one folks. Wasn't planning to do a quick episode about this, but well, the internet happened. So here we are. Ladies, Gentlemen, Nerds, Geeks, and everyone else I missed. Jane Foster was Thor in the comics, and looks like she's also Thor in the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder movie. If you hate the idea of "Lady Thor" (or as she is properly known, The Mighty Thor, Goddess of Thunder) because "Thor is a MAN/It's Thor OdinSON, not OdinDaughter" or whatever other bullshit superficial reason, kindly go fuck yourself with a sideways pineapple.
