Warning ! This article contains spoiler for Children of the Vault # 2Thor ’s hammer , Mjolnir , is arguably as iconic as the founding Avenger himself , so insulting any superpowered mortal whose weapon of choice is a power hammer by ridiculing them for using a cock is essentially a direct thrust at Thor himself - and that ’s on the nose what theX - Menjust did , and in a surprisingly harsh mode .
The ex - Men have all but been pass over out in the current state of Marvel Comics canon , as theFall of Xbegan with near every mutant on Earth effectively take the air into a center grinder . The few who remain have commit themselves to struggle the very wickedness that wiped out mutantkind , the malign system Orchis . However , with most of the variation go and Orchis having yet to affirm global ascendancy , another grouping has risen to lay claim to the dry land : the Children of the Vault . The Children of the Vault are hyper - evolved humanswho might as well be god , and they design to raze the planet and reshape it in their paradigm . At least , unless two remaining sport stop them before they do so . In the currentChildren of the Vaultcomic series , Cable and Bishop have joined force play to fight the Children , and in this late issue , they fight with more than just their artillery and fists , but with injurious words that are just as insulting to Thor as they are to the hammer - wielding opposition they were up against .
X-Men Insults Warriors Who Use Hammers (Including Thor)
In a preview forChildren of the Vault#2 by Deniz Camp and Luca Maresca , a fellow member of the Children of the Vault named Martillo-131 stands next to a nightclub , using his x - light beam visual sense to stare at the drunken dancers within , wishing he could join them . Then , all of a sudden , Cable and Bishop launch a surprise attack against him . Martillo promptly grabs the massive warhammer that ’s sling across his back , move Bishop to say , “ You have a go at it what they say about guys with hammers ? They ’re % $ # @ ! ” .
While Cable and Bishop promptly try that remark rightful by take Martillo-131 down with little effort , the dig about him using a hammer was totally uncalled - for . Was Bishop just seek to get in his mind , and thought affront his weapon was the best way to go ? Or does the variation really think people who use hammers in struggle suck ? It ’s unacceptable to know , but if the insult is need at aspect - economic value , then Bishop did , in fact , just insult anyone and everyone who ’s ever used a power hammer in struggle , including Thor . It ’s a baffling situation , to be sure , and one that puts Thor on the X - Men ’s proverbial roasting stage for ostensibly no reason at all .
take Thor out of the equation for a import , this struggle did more than merely prove the comedic savagery of Bishop , but also a potential weak point in the Children of the Vault ’s seemingly out-and-out philosophy . The Children want to raze the world and reshape it , yet all Martillo-131 need to do is put his hammer down , and go saltation with the other regular humans in the night club he ’s standing outside . Martillo wants to adapt to human society , as he loves aspects of it that will presently be lost under the rule of the Children . Only time will tell if this hammer - wielding warrior in reality is the Children ’s weak point and will switch sides to help the mutant , or if he even survived this coming upon at all , as the preview leave his fate ill-defined . Until then , however , Martillo-131 is just an enemy who uses a deadly pound in struggle just likeThor , which - harmonize to theX - Men , apparently - means he ’s “ % $ # @ ! ” .
