Jane Foster's Thor Actually Debuted Way Before Fans Realize
Most fans assume Jane Foster’s ability to lift Thor’s hammer is a recent concept, but the female Thor actually made her debut way back in a 1978 issue of Marvel’s classic What If...? series. The Jane Foster version of Thor has been a surprise fan-favorite ever since writer Jason Aaron and artist Russell Dauterman’s critically acclaimed Thor run from 2014. The storyline followed a cancer stricken Jane Foster welding Mjolnir and regaining her strength through the power of Thor. The story went on to inspire the 2022 MCU release Thor: Love and Thunder.
