* [[Involuntary Battle to the Death]]: In the story-arc that introduces Beta Ray Bill, the otherworldly champion who is also worthy to wield Mjölnir, Odin declares that Bill and Thor must fight a duel to the death to settle the question of who gets to keep it. {{spoiler|Bill wins, but saves Thor's life; Odin gives Mjölnir back to Thor and commissions a new hammer from the dwarfs to give to Bill. It's implied that this is the outcome Odin intended all along.}} |

* [[Kill the God]]: Gorr's whole modus operandi, he hates the divine with a venomous passion for letting him, his people and his family down one to many times. Now, armed with the [[MacGuffin|All-Black the Necrosword]]; he seeks to slaughter all the divine across creation for what they did to him. What they took from him; to the now and till the end of time & back. |

* [[Legacy Character]]: The power of the Thunder God is accessible to anyone else who can prove worthy of wielding Mjölnir (see below). Mortals such as human architect Eric Masterson and the alien nicknamed Beta Ray Bill would wield the hammer when Thor was otherwise indisposed. Later on, Masterson would get a slightly weaker hammer of his own to wield, becoming the hero Thunderstrike. Likewise, Beta Ray Bill was given his own hammer, Stormbreaker, with powers roughly equal to Mjölnir. Unfortunately, this means that Bill isn't seen that much anymore, because having Thor teamed up with an equally powerful pseudo-god is [[Story-Breaker Power|ridiculous overkill for most situations]]. |
