The thunder god was another founding member of the team. Being an Asgardian, he has super strength and is immortal, but he also possesses the mystic hammer, Mjolnir, which controls the storms and has many other powers. On their first adventure together, the super heroes battled his brother, Loki. Thor has taken long leaves of absence from the team, but along with Iron Man and Captain America, he is considered one of the foundations of the Avengers. His love of Earth and its "mortals" always brings him back to the team. Thor is probably the most powerful Avenger, but because of the team’s heroism and camaraderie, he considers them equals.
