That doesn't mean it's going to be bad.
I'm baffled that folks can actually be appalled.
If you're a comic reader you know stuff like this just goes with the territory.
If you're not a comic reader then it's not going to roll over into the movies so who cares?
So if a tall leggy blond woman showed up in DC and introduced herself as Bruce Wayne that'd be normal? Not Batman, but introduced herself as Bruce Wayne, the millionaire playboy. Because that's exactly the kind of crap this is, the theft of a person's birth name.
A one shot alternate universe does not compare to the regular comics.
If you can't tell the difference between the two, and cite only a one shot alternate universe as precedence as reason that the standard accepted universe in comics should be changed, then I can't help you.
At least female Thor has pants.
Nice Meowmeow.
Which standard accepted universe are you refering to? The one where House of M happened, where Wolverine was a Furry? The universe where Spiderman reveals himself to be Peter Parker? Or how about when Jean Grey kills herself? The entire marvel universe is one giant retcon.
All we know about this series is that Thor will be female. My money is on this being a one shot or later being retconed out of existence.
