Hello I have never posted here before but I was having a vicious argument with my brothers about Thor and his mighty hammer. The question we can not settle is has Thor's hammer ever been broken and if so by whom and when.
Thank you very much.

It has been broken at least once, during the Ragnarok storyline (a tie in to Disassembled). I was broken by Ulik and the wolf Fenrir, both armed with other Uru weapons.
However, I think it has been broken at least one more time in the past, quite a few years ago, but I don't know by who and exactly when. In a Marvel Team Up issue with Spidey and Valkyrie, Thor mentions that.

It has been broken one other time as far as I know, right before Deflaco took over the comic, when Thor battled the celestials, the hammer was shattered, and had to be reforged, or some such other stupid thing.

Thank you everyone.
Does anyone know if The Incredible Hulk has ever broken it? That is the biggest sticking point in our argument!
Thanks again.

Not as far as I know.
I would actually exclude it. Not even Hulk is strong enough to break Mjolnir, only extremely powerful celestial beings, or people armed with Uru weapons, can manage to do that.

I don't think the Hulk has ever lifted Mjolnir let alone broken it. The last time it happened (hammer being broken) I believe was during the Dark Gods run in Thor 1-12 of the Heroes Return renumbering...

Thank you so much. What a load off! I have two brothers and each one of them were swearing up one side and down the other they each knew what they were talking about becasue as one said "I read the comic and I saw it with my own to eyes!" and the other "You're freaking nuts" Being the sister stuck in the middle figuratively and literally I could see what each were saying but I needed some objective source to be the voice of reason. So Thanks..everyone.

NO problem, and I also will chime in that the hulk has never lifted or broken thors hammer. You should tell them that only those that are worthy can lift it. Then list the people who have. Captain America Beta Ray Bill That should shut them both up quick

Superman lifted it, didn't he? There is a lot of debate on how that happened, but yes he lifted it. I supose if Cap can lift it, DC's boy scout can to...

Yes, he lifted it once, but failed the second time. Thor explained that a few worthies have been allowed to lift Mjolnir in extreme situations, and Superman was worthy both because he was one of the good guys and because he had defeated Thor in a regular fight. During the Marvel vs DC crossover a while ago, Wonder Woman also managed to lift it, which was strange becase she had not defeted Thor in battle.
