“There has never been a story where it was important to Thor’s character that his mom was Gaea.” *Donny Cates:* “BET.”

I can't help but think that this story came from the line odin said in the movies: "are you the god of hammers?! No, you're the god of lightning." Or something along those lines

I really like it when Rob gets excited over a story! It's got to be good when he's excited.

This series has completely reignited my love of Thor comics!

This turned into such an epic story. I love how Thor books can seem nearly like ancient myth, not something that was written today. It's such a good use of mythical characters.

Love the way Cates has been filling in major gaps in character's back stories and tying up loose ends other writers have left while taking the characters to the Max, yet setting up room for future writers to have a solid direction to go (Odin Hammer, Titan Hulk, Venom being Dylan, etc.)

"Gods of golden girls".. Funny. Another Banger Rob.

Just a thought but if Odin does reside in the hammer I vote we change the hammers name to The All Hammer

36:10 - 38:00 moments like these keeps me coming back!😂 Robb you are awesome

Imagine being over a million years old and still being as jacked as Odin.

After hearing of the feats in Death Battle, it’s safe to say… Beyond Omega: Zatanna.

I can't wait to see Odin Force Thor vs Titan Hulk. It's gonna be nuts

The mangog is absolutely insane, it's a shame we probably will never get a story eg. the dweller in darkness story, where it destroys a universe, except maybe in the mcu, if we lean into the more magic side of marvel, with doctor strange 2, and a potential scarlet witch solo film in the vein of wanda vision. it actually reminds me a lot of my relationship with my own father, we've grown closer in recent years, but he's never said I'm proud of you son or anything like that, it's always been passive aggressive, as if i was never good enough for him. I've grown to respect him, but it came at the cost, of fear and hatred being all i felt towards him for the longest time, and i felt like he was beyond reproach in that regard, but everyone makes mistakes, i just need to learn to accept that, and hope things will get better for us all.

I really love the narrative of this story also the way u narrate it also I've been collecting thor since Walt Simonson's era ..I've only just subscribed it's nice having Thor on the TV I'm getting on a bit now I'm 43 yrs old thanks for all Ur content I'm trying to read / watch every upload...Watched x force kills well u obviously know u uploaded it ..much appreciated as this must be quite an effort to do

Friggin Odin is the real God of Lies here! Spinned one so good that when the God of hammers simply refused to be lifted Odin could just gaslight you for being unworthy! Genius.

Mangog and Gorr teaming up would be terrifying.

Lmaooo, Rob was spazzing frfr 😂😂 I love when he gets all worked up

Being this early is just as hype as the issues you cover keep rocking on man🙌

Comics Explained, I REALLY Liked your Maestro videos, expecially the recent one with Maestro vs Dr. Doom, how you explained how Dr. Doom from The Future Imperfect Universe was The Dr. Doom in the story, but I also REALLY, REALLY Liked the way that you talked about Maestro having military tactics, and or a tactical mindset, which makes sense, like in the Comics when The Army with General Thunderbolt Ross was hunting down The Hulk, and The 2008 Incredible Hulk Movie for instance, where Bruce Banner was evading the troops in Brazil, and I'm just using The 2008 Incredible Hulk Movie as a reference, but it goes to show, like Bruce Banner *EVADES* The U.S. Army, to evade people like THAT who have A LOT of resources Banner WOULD HAVE HAD to Learn How they operate, he WOULD HAVE HAD to learn how they think, like what they would plan and things like that, as well as how they would go about their plans, and he figures out how much time he has, calculating an opening, or a time frame to work with, where they want him to go, like if it's a trap or something like that, what would they use, where would they be, how many are there, and things like that in order to evade them. So, yes, Bruce Banner SHOULD HAVE picked up A LOT alone The Way, like you said, and I'm happy that you brought that up, because honestly I didn't even think about that stuff. And The Reason why I didn't put this into your Most Recent Maestro Video is because I want you to see it now, in your Most Recent video.

Dude we he mentioned the sun, I went back to Donny Cates venom and was like "KNULL???? NO WAY!!!" I was wrong.. But I'm still HAPPY.

"YOU HAVE KILLED IN MY NAME, BROUGHT MISERY TO MY HOME, TAKEN MY FATHER!!!" The Hammer, previously the largest threat in existence: >gulp< _"... i'm sorry?..."_

I love the way you tell stories dude, how you aren't afraid to show how you are feeling, when conveying the stories to us, awesome job dude,

love this thank you for the vid!

Bro I'm a huge fan of your work. Me and son are sitting here going crazy and wife is fussing at us lol. Happy birthday bro. Great work

I Love your excitement and emotional energy it makes work tolerable

Beyond Omega Level: Popeye the Sailor Man

Love it Rob!

Great comic. Thank u!!!!!!!!

The enthusiasm that you put into these videos has me wrapped you're the best dude

Listening to this at work and I’m sure I look like I’m insane laughing at the Mangog reveal the hype from Rob at the end 😂😂 man this is why I love this channel and Rob!

the cinimatic universe needs this story. this needs a real life adaptation

THIS WAS AMAZING 👏 . Everutimr I hear: "Man, let me tell you something ", I know it's about to be riveting.

The God Tempest was born of the battle between Elder Gods Dorothy the Mighty & The Great Trickster Rose.

I think now that Thor is King of Asgard and controls nearly limitless power over the ten realms....he begins to realize the responsibility that Odin shouldered for millennia......judgement is easy when you're not responsible for so much.

I loved your excitement in this video, Rob.

Yes! love the videos rob thank you

Such a great story. Love it!

“Arghhhhhh Im sorry Im so excited” 😂 😂

Been a while since I watched anything on this channel but dayum what a beautiful story. Thanks for the awesomeness 👍

Omg these just keep getting better!

26:57 On the right, there's an OG Xbox from the '00s

27:20 when it's stated Thor has the Odin Force. Wouldn't Thor also have the Power Cosmic as well sense he took it all from a Galactus or that all gone as well?

Hearing Rob excited is so amazing.

Awesome I love you enthusiasm

a worth full story thank you rob

i feel the fully exposure of the odin force is the main factor that thor used to destroy the storm and hammer

Nidavellir is said like Rockefeller. Ni Da Vel-eer. Keep up the great work Rob. (I know, it's a comp of all the vols, but always happy to help with pronunciations)

This was awesome!!!

Happy Belated Bro! 🎁🎁🎊🎈🎉 You are the best story teller. I can’t stop listening to these 😂

Love your intros bruh (like the 3rd one)

4:00 YOU CANT STOP ME.... ....YOU CAN ONLY HOPE TO CONTAIN ME...

Wow awesome stuff

Bro there’s some dope writing in this run “But the earth bends it knee” is such an awesome line!

Thor!!!

Happy belated birthday Rob!

Happy belated birthday Rob

Part of me thinks that the storm was dissipated back into the universe. The hammer just unified it into one focused being.

Awesome story I love it by the way happy birthday brother

Rob and the corps, thank you for this one!

I’m brought to tears. “Get up boy! A King 👑 can not rule from his knees”! 🥹”Father”?!

I love hearing him get so stoked lol

My guess is the Odin force and his soul is too different things. The Odin force is the magical power that’s in Odin and his brothers because there mystical beings and I would say everyone in marvel has a soul so it might be Odin’s soul or spirit that’s in side the hammer 🔨 and Thor has the magical powers that we call ( the Odin force) inside of him. But they did just change everything for the hammer!! I think they may have put them self in a corner 🤔🤷‍♂️ maybe??! But I love the story

Thank you Rob for tellin this story. Your excitement is contagious. When you get goin I sit up and take notice because you remind me of myself back in the day when I came across a great storyline. I'm hittin 50 in a couple months and your excitement makes me feel young when I hear you. I'm tellin ya son keep up the great work‼️✊🏻🤪

Damm this was awesome - definitely buying the comic, thanks for the awesome video

Come on let's dance !!🕺😂 rob is my goat

Rob man I need a playlist of the songs from your videos. I need some chill music. Come on man! Let me tell you something man!

Odin in the mcu : are you thor the god of hammers ?? thor : hill yeah

Thor needs to drop the hammer completely!!!! It’s like going back with a Ex. If it didn’t work before!?! It ain’t working anytime again.

Love ya rob... but why animal crossing background music? Lmao

“All I see are nails.” Goddamn lol

Thanks for narrating this story. I have read "The God of Hammers" Series so I wish you had done this before I did all that reading on my Kindle and Comixology readers! (Zoom In - Zoom Out, loose your place, go back) Nice Job!!!

THIS WAS EPIC and thanks for doing this story. On another note: I wonder if Thor Love and Thunder will have a similar connection of having Odin's life force to speak to Jane and thus fusing his being into the hammer and is reforge for her.

Yessir rob the goat

27:38 everyone knows.... ...if you're gonna ride the lightning... .....you're gonna crash like thunder... 💯

Thor, what a badass!

Yo can you do some old time classic Thor stories?

This is the first time listening to this story. But it always seems like you always give away the villain at the beginning and kind of kills the reveal to those that don't know the outcome of the story.

Imagine a Mortal Kombat crossover. The Elder God's just show up one-day fight the Marvel ones. XD

Nice

Awesome

I love the Parallax-esque retcon here as to why Stevil could lift Mjolnir. Sure, there was an unsatisfying BS answer at the time but the retcon is so much more satisfying. In 2014, the God Tempest awoke enough to tamper with the enchantment. That made Thor unworthy so Jane Foster could have it for a time. But, as you brought up, it could also be used to explain away why Stevil could lift it. The God Tempest was screwing with Thor and thought Stevil could bring about the defeat of the Odinson. I just hope the epilogue explicitly states that the reason is that the enchantment was changed from "should they be worthy" meaning good to "should they be worthy"... of defeating Thor.

Happy Birthday btw!

I was worried that you were about to explode, Rob. Are you ok? Lol

happy birthday rob

You should do a explanation on 2000 ad comics like judge dredd and rogue trooper and tor cyan it would be awesome to see that

Somebody explain this to me. How is it possible that the Thor comics are this good but the movies are meh? THIS is what I want to see in the mcu!!

I juz found out your an Aries... Mines April 16th.... Been watching u for years... Don't comment much... Love brodi..

Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs Donald Blake for the mantle and hammer of Thor at Midgard Mania!

Gives that question Odin gave in the Ragnarok movie some new emphasis when he asked Thor if he was the god of hammers

True to the name

Well now I'm confused. I had the idea that the opposing force to death was the Enigma Force what with all the Thanos & Deadpool stuff. But now death is part of the Phoenix Force which is order and opposing the Chaos Magic? So where does the Enigma Force fall in then?

Hey Rob, just to let you know tmnt the last ronin issues two three and four are out. Also could you please cover the boys epilogue and dear Becky.

You lost me when you were talking about the Phoenix force being part of Mistress Death. Can you please do a vid explaining that in more detail?

37:46 Rob...could this Mjorgog....be able to hold a candle to the Beyonders? or shyt...even a single Beyonder????

You’re going to have to explain the relationship between mistress death and the white Phoenix to me a little better I do not understand.

rob i gotta ask who would beat the other ina fight zatana at her max or scarlet witch

No epilogue yet? :(

That central stone obelisk in the realm that's the "farthest place from here" looks a lot like the realm in the MCU movies where Jane Foster joined with the infinity stone when it was gussied up to look like a red mist thing. It looks like the giant structure which separates to provide the I.S./mist the opportunity to infect Jane. Looked similar to me. Wonder if there's anything to that. Or just an eventual coincidence, necessarily certain to be recreated as there's only so many supernatural realms you can draw to be distinct from one another.

"The elves of nidavilier " lol

ROBBBBBB COVER CONSTANTINE PLEASE MY BOY
