1* ExecutiveMeddling: A preemptive attempt to avert it resulted in [[spoiler: Kid Loki being erased from existence and his rebirth as a young DracoInLeatherPants, as the author wanted to avoid blatantly out of character scenarios such as ''Kid Loki gone evil'' or ''Loki vs Kid Loki'']].
2* ReferencedBy: The ProfessionalWrestling promotion Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}} had Wrestling/{{The Estonian Thunderfrog}}, who was basically Thor as a frog. From Estonia. He carried around a big hammer (alternately the Hammer of War or the Hammer of Peace), and only he who was worthy could wield it, with the only ones qualifying for it being the Frog himself and Icarus.
3* TorchTheFranchiseAndRun: Kieron Gillen, the creator of Loki's young self's very well-regarded run on ''Journey into Mystery'' gave this as the reason why, and here come the spoilers so avoid highlighting or clicking any following links to avoid being sullied, [[spoiler: Loki's younger self had to not only die, but be absolutely removed from existence. [[http://gillen.cream.org/wordpress_html/4848/one-for-sorrow-why-did-kieron-do-it/ He was well aware letting him survive, or even "simply" die, would have provided someone with the opportunity in the future to do an ill-conceived "let's have him turn evil and completely undercut the importance of his earlier stories" plot]]. Even this, he admits, will not necessarily keep later writers from finding some way to bring Loki's younger self back into existence. He kindly advises, though, that they not do this, as even if they care about the character, it will only allow even later writers the same vicious opportunity.]]
4--> '''Loki:''' ''[miserably]'' [[Creator/MarvelComics The House]] always wins.
5* UrbanLegendOfZelda: Fans vividly remember an issue where Thor is badly injured after a battle and a random paramedic hands him Mjölnir, being deemed one of the few people [[TheRealHeroes worthy enough]] to wield it. However, no one's been able to track down the specific issue where this happens. It's believed that fans were misinterpreting a scene from ''Thor #35'' where [[https://imgur.com/a/cA2YS the Enchantress helps Thor lift Mjölnir while he's unconscious]].
