I just wanted to say thank you for getting me into marvel lore and history until this point I only really knew about a few big spider man related events but after finding this channel I’ve fallen in love with the deep history and honestly fascinating characters that are often not talked about

[@foldabotZ]

I think a simpler and maybe better "origin" for the Thor/Donald Blake thing would be Odin banishing Thor and turning him into a mortal stripped of his godly memories and powers, becoming Donald Blake. After 10 years, Donald would travel to Norway and recover Mjolnir, restoring Thor's memories and powers. Donald Blake would be Thor's mortal disguise amongst humanity, similar to Martian Manhunter's disguise as Detective John Jones. Thor is the real identity while Don Blake is the disguise.

[@MerryMarvelite]

I agree. I think any time they try to make Donald Blake more than just an alternate identity for Thor it just over-complicates matters.

[@radrno7]

That's always been my ideal vision on Thor's origin, but I'd not have the cane part because that just seems really unnecessary. I'd also have Blake turn into Thor by lifting Mjolnir for the first time to save others. Hitting the cane seems too much like a Shazam type switch, because he would just keep going on and off everytime he hits something with Mjolnir lol.

In the myth however when Mjolnir was made is different. After Loki chopped off Thor’s girlfriend Sif’s hair, Thor forced Loki to go to Nidavellir to convince the dwarves Brok and Etri to replace Sif’s hair as well as give the gods magical gifts. But it had to exchange Loki’s head. When the dwarves began making the hammer, Loki scared of losing his head decides to cheat his way by turning into a wasp and stung Brok, which causes the handle of Mjolnir to snap off, therefore the hammer now has a short handle. As the gods get their gifts; Odin with his spear, Thor with his hammer, Freyja with her golden boar, Freyr with golden bracelets and Sif with a new set of hair, Loki finally agrees to give his head away to the dwarves, but only without damaging his neck. Brok and Etri were enraged and cheated by the impossibility, so Odin decides to instead sow Loki’s mouth shut temporarily.

This is very confusing. I remember watching early cartoons of Thor as DR. Blake turning into Thor with the strike of his cane for awhile. Even in early comics he couldn't be without his hammer for long when he was fighting against other super heroes and this is the one with a bad leg. I don't know about any other version. A little while ago there was a comic having Blake finding out he was nothing more than a play thing for Thor and completely losing it and wanting to get even. I saw this on KZbin. Plus I thought his name was Dr. Drake. What comic or comics would have this information.

[@Neil070]

My dad bought me all the early Marvel comics he could afford, way back in the 60's. I remember reading how Dr. Donald Blake, MD was exploring caves in Norway, despite being lame, and being alone. He found an ancient sarcophagus containing the body of a warrior. He stepped back in shock, striking his cane on the floor to support him and transformed into Thor. It was a bit Hulk/Banner, with his Thor persona despising the "weak and feeble" Blake. Back in New York, Blake resumed his career as a physician, alongside his nurse, Jane Foster. The first Thor movie paid homage to Blake, as Jane's ex, with Thor assuming his identity temporarily

[@lucariomew365]

They got rid of the hammer weakness in like the mid 70s so that's been gone (in comics) for a long time. The Donald Blake issue gets stupidly complicated. gonna copy and paste this here: -Journey into Mystery #83 (1962, Don Blake was implicitly presented as a normal doctor who found the hammer of Thor and began channeling the Thunder God as they shared a single life and experiences. -In Thor #159 (1968), Odin revealed that Don Blake was merely a magical construct, specifically engineered to present Thor with the opportunity to learn the lesson of humility Odin sought to teach him. Blake had no past before Odin willed him into being to be inhabited by Thor. -Thor Anual #11 (1983) is when the Norns (the Norse Goddesses of Fate) learned that Donald Blake, while a magical construct created by Odin, was based on a template of a man with similar features and was given a false life and memories to make him an even more convincing entity. -In Mighty Thor #415 (1990), Eric Masterson accessed the memories that he now shared with Thor and recalled that Odin had used Keith Kincaid, then a young medical student, as a template for a physical, mental and emotional duplicate who became Donald Blake. -The Mighty Thor #475-484 (1994) was when the idea of Donald Blake being an actual seperate entity from Thor, and not just a hollow shell/magical construct in the shape/image of a preexisting human as previously believed. Moreover, there was an actual real life man named Donald Blake, and the idea of Keith Kincaid being a template was a lie creates by Odin. Every time Blake was transforming, Thor was possessing this person and overriding his existence , causing Blake to go into a state of suspended animation within Thor . And when Thor would transform back the real Donald Blake had no idea what was going on. Overtime, Thor had unwittingly absorbed an aspect of Donald Black, which allowed him to assume the form of identity without ever possessing the original. This was used to explain how sometimes Donald Blake did know what was going on and was clearly acting on the memories of Thor. But Thor/the False Blake had no knowledge of the real one prior to this revelation. But that meant that they were basically two Donald Blake's running around. The storyline concluded with Thor trying to find the real Donald Blake and restore him, only for the Asgardiqn Sigynd to destroy him, thus resolving the issue of the 2 Donald Blakes. So now Odin's magical construct (which existed as an aspect of Thor) remained the only Donald Blake. -and pretty much every writer sends completely ignore the above storyline because it's so convoluted that no one wants to deal with it. It was immediately retconned and so many different ways it's impossible to post all the issues. -Fantastic Four# 536/537 (2006) & Mighty Thor Vol 2 (2011) pretty much clean up the mess that happened between the 90s and 2000s, once again re-establishing that Donald Blake was a magical construct created by odin, but he existed with his own memories and personal (which were false) . Odin created him as a vessel to place Thor into in order for Thor to gain humility. As for why Odin just didn't create a lifeless shell and then give the amnesiac Thor false memories (instead dof creating a living being), comics. -Thor Volume 2 basically goes over all of this and gives Donald Blake a happy send-off concluding the false life character. Thor Vol2 (by Matt Fraction) seriously deserves more praise because it cleaned up/condensed the canon in a way that made sense and all subsequent writers, from AL Ewing to Jason Aaron to Donny Cates reference it (whether they realize it or not). -Mark Waid's 2019/2020's History of the Marvel Universe vol 2 also works to condense the history and make sense of the many retcons of all of Marvel. Some issues reference Donald Blake, but mostly use the condensed history by Matt Fraction. -Donny Cates' Thor vol 6 (2020-current) brought back Donald Blake. All of the previous existing information was (mostly) Canon-minus the (retconned) nonsense of "there are actually 2 different Donald Blakes" (which every subsequent writer thought was stupid and ignored). This run deals with the Fallout of Odin's death (again), Thor becoming the King of Asgard (again), and inheriting the Odin Force (again) following the end of Jason Aaron's run. Apparently, when Odin did away with the Donald Blake personal at the end of Thor vol 2, he had put the spirit and essence of Blake in a paradise-like dream world where he's free live out his own life separate from Thor. Unfortunately, Odin's death in Aaron's run caused the paradise world to fall apart turning into a nightmarish hell that tortured the Blake and destroyed his psyche. We also learn that since Donald Blake was created by Odin, but is an aspect of Thor, but also is own separate person, he's technically a son of Odin too. Therefore he can tap into Thor's Godly powers and the Odin Force (now called the Thor Force). To put it simply, he comes back with God Powers but is mentally unhinged, being reduced to being a full homidical maniac-he uses a surgical scalpel to cut into and murder people in the most gruesome way possible. And he's hell-bent on killing all of Thor's allies and anyone that had it and even remotely friendly relationship with Odin. He also went on murder happy stalker on both Sif and Jane Foster.

[@radrno7]

@@lucariomew365 You had me until they gave Blake powers. That's just stupid. Blake (if what has been shown to us so far is true) is nothing but a magically engineered human with false memories, where he might have been born through magic, but he's not a true son of Odin. I mean, they could give him powers by changing his previously established character, like giving him a magical item or putting some enchantment into him, but not just assume "oh he was created by Odin, so he is his son and can use Odinforce". That's nonsensical and just lame. If it's that easy, Odin would have an entire army wielding his powers. Also, Sigin didn't, nor would she ever, create him with that purpose, since she would never aid someone else to also have Odin's powers and become another foe to her or Loki.

[@lucariomew365]

@@radrno7I agree. Giving Blake Powers and turning him into a deranged murder happy psychopath it's all part of the Odin is a an irredeemable/abusive/alcoholic father arc. Jason Aaron started it in his second (Jane Foster) Mighty Thor run, and Donny Cates concluded by redeeming Odin (with his death) and making Blake the new God of lies and evil (replacing Loki, who has been the God of Stories and an Anti-hero). Loki even gave Blake the same fate (Trapped in a cave, with a serpents venom dripping on him for eternity) the same punishment that he originally received in the past. I wasn't really about that take on everything it's a bit too much for me. They should have just stuck with Blake ceasing to exist because he was no longer needed rather than giving him full independent personhood. Orders giving him independent personhood and then sun setting him, rather than all of this.

[@alexandrefrauches132]

As much I love this type of the story where the hero has to learn humility (as I like to say: The best super hero origin aren't the ones that show the hero reciving his powers. It's the ones that show why he is worthy of the powers) I'm not fan of Thor origin in the comics. The idea of him going to Earth and learning to care for others it's fine but having him losing his memories just turns him into complete different character, not allowing the readers to see character emotional journey, learning from his mistakes and becoming more mature and responsible.
