Transverse crevasses are the most common crevasse type. They form in a zone of longitudinal extension where the principal stresses are parallel to the direction of glacier flow, creating extensional tensile stress. These crevasses stretch across the glacier transverse to the flow direction, or cross-glacier.
Mjolnir (comics) Mjolnir (/ËmoÊlnáµ»r/ MOHL-n(ee)r) is a fictional weapon appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. It is depicted as the favored weapon of the superhero Thor. Mjolnir, which first appears in Journey into Mystery #83 (August 1962), was created by writer Stan Lee and designed by artists Jack Kirby and Joe Sinnott. Mjolnir was typically depicted as a large, square-headed gray lump hammer.
Thor's hammer Mjolnir is enchanted so that only the worthiest of heroes can wield the weapon and the awesome powers it bestows. For everyone else, the hammer becomes too heavy to budge. While the hammer is Thor's signature weapon, a handful of other characters have actually been able to pick it up, one way or another. With Marvel relaunching a new Thor #1 comic this Wednesday that features a female Thor wielding the hammer, we decided to look back at who else has lifted it, one way or another.
