The
Marvel version of Thor is noble and very self-assured, sometimes to the
point of arrogance. Thor's father Odin decides his son needs to be
taught humility and consequently places Thor into the body and memories
of an existing, partially disabled human medical student, Donald Blake.
After becoming a doctor and thoroughly believing himself to be the
young surgeon Blake, he later discovers Thor's disguised hammer and
learns to change back and forth into the Thunder God. The real Blake's
persona remains elsewhere until many years later, after Odin becomes
satisfied of Thor's humility and lifts the spell, thereby removing the
need for a mortal alter ego. The mortal experience, however, shapes
Thor into an honorable and courteous individual, who is loyal to all
comrades. |
