I agree with Jenny Lorenzo, I'm not really against a female taking on the role of Thor, but why not just put more attention on one of the many already established female characters or create a completely new character if the idea is to bring more girl power to the table. In the case of Thor, the charater is basically masculinity personified. Now they did do the gender swap thing with Loki, but Loki is well, kind of androginous in the first place so it works. But I understand the bigger issue here at question is the change purely for the sake of artistic exploration or to be more PR and or just a way to drum up publisity. In my opinion as long as the stories and art are on spot, I'm down to see where it goes.
