Marvel has given an upgrade to one of its biggest superheroes. And by that we mean: there’s a new superlady in town and she’s wielding the hammer of Thor!
YES, Thor is now a woman. Marvel Comics is introducing an all new, female God of Thunder, it was announced Tuesday.

The classic male hero is no longer able to hold the mighty hammer, so a female hero will emerge, worthy of the name "Thor," Marvel explained in a press release. “She created herself, she was saved by Thor and she came down to earth...

"This is not She-Thor. This is not Lady Thor. This is not Thorita. This is THOR. This is the THOR of the Marvel Universe. But it's unlike any Thor we’ve ever seen before," Aaron explained via press release. And, well, they’re certainly right about that:

A Disney spokeswoman, Megan Wasserman, added: "The announcement... was about the comics, and as normal Marvel policy we cannot (comment) on film activities, rumors or related speculation."
