I'm not much of a Thor reader and I was having a discussion with some friends earlier. and we were arguing whether Odinson is just a normal person. Or he is like Thor but without Mjolner.
Thor
Character » Thor appears in 8624 issues.
Thor Odinson is the All-father of Asgard /God of Thunder, offspring of All-Father Odin & Elder-Goddess Gaea. Combining the powers of both realms makes him an elder-god hybrid and a being of no perceivable limits. Armed with his enchanted Uru hammer Mjolnir which helps him to channel his godly energies. The mightiest and the most beloved warrior in all of Asgard, a staunch ally for good and one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse/omniverse. Thor is also a founding member of the Avengers.
Does Odinson have powers (Not as Thor)
@kojax: Idk who's arguing that Thor is a regular man without Mjolnir unless they mean Donald Blake but Thor without the hammer is still Thor he still has all his physical stats as he was born with them he can still manipulate the weather and use lightning. Mjolnir grants him flight and better control over the weather etc it has other powers aswell but Thor's main powerset he has anyways, Mjolnir also gives him really high striking power. He tends to use lightning more when he has mjolnir though, but he has almost always had it only recently we see him without it all the time.

Thor Odinson is a half-elder God, half-Asgardian God, his powers have absolutely nothing to do with Mjolnir. The idea that that his powers ever transferred with the hammer was supposed to have been reconnected when Donald Blake ceased to exist. However for the publicity stunt they brought back the notion that Thor's powers are in the hammer as well. When in truth it was originally just part of the Odinforce which was used to power the hammer, the new retcon has something to do with the power of the mother storm, however that still wouldn't explain why having the hammer that contains the mother of storms would someone how transfer the godly powers of who was at the time a quite arrogant little warmongering brat. Strength, Durability, earth and weather manipulation come from Thor. When channelied through Mjolnir they became more powerful and having access to the odinfroce through Mjolnir allowed thor to use incredibly powerful attacks like the Godblast.
The problem with this question is that NO MATTER what Marvel or Aaron says, Thor is THOR!!!! So, YES! He has all of his birth powers. She really shouldnt have any of his powers except that Odin conveniently sealed a "Mother Storm" in Mjolnir who grants her the weather powers so she can leech an existence from being similar to Thor. Disgusting parasite!
It's quite annoying that Thor apparently doesn't have flight in Arron's arc. At the very least he should be capable of flying like Storm.
To answer your question, yes Thor should have all of his powers without his hammer. The only one that is currently missing is flight, and his strength may be weaker (a concept which is ridiculous).
@kojax: I've actually made a thread dedicated to Thor where he has feats of strength, durability, flight, control weather and yes even jumping high (think Superman or the Hulk) without the aid of his hammer.
Check it out, it's not a respect thread or anything just feats of Thor without his hammer. I explain the events off all the scans I've posted, the issue numbers and the cover of the comic. It's worth checking out and if you are interested here is the thread and link:
- Feats of Thor Without Using His Hammer (PLZ READ OP)
- https://comicvine.gamespot.com/forums/gen-discussion-1/feats-of-thor-without-using-his-hammer-plz-read-op
Of course. Superhuman strength, durability, nigh unlimited stamina, enhanced healing, extended lifespan, immunity to diseases, lightning projection, Earth manipulation, weather manipulation and the ability to hear people praying to Gods.
Mjolnir gives him other powers he has shown over the years as well as more control over weather and lightning.
Thor is THOR.Stripping his hammer from him doesn't make him just Odinson,losing his birth name.Thor was Thor before mjolnir,and will be same even after mjolnir.
As far as his powers goes,he retains most of his powers without hammer with the exception of teleportation,flight(he could hover without mjolnir),anti-force blast,anti gravity(not sure) and transmutation.
He could probably fly without his hammer like here:
But folks, it could be that his hammer was cropped out by the writer as Thor is shown flying with what looks like he is flying without the hammer's aid. Anyway if you want to see his real feats without his hammer, check this out:
That makes no sense, Thor is always Thor.
Thor is Thor, but i don't even want to know what happens if Marvel lets Aaron run a few years rampant again.
Agreed, and this should prove it:
This is Thor after he was sucker punched on the face with his own hammer by Iron-Man (and he didn't even flinch):
BOSS!!!!
@arthurkerr: Agreed too, and this should also prove what Thor is capable OFF even without mjornir:
and just to add insult to injury:
BOSS!!!
