What did Vincente Colletta work on that is based on the Norse mythological deity of the same name?
Thor (Marvel Comics) Thor (Thor Odinson) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character, based on the Norse mythological deity of the same name, is the Asgardian god of thunder and possesses the enchanted hammer Mjolnir, which grants him the ability of flight and weather manipulation amongst his other superhuman attributes.
Lýtir Lytir (Old Norse "Lýtir") is considered a god in Norse mythology and Norse paganism. His name is either related to the Old Norse word "hlutr", meaning "lot, share, foretell" or "lýti" meaning "blemish". If the former meaning is assumed, then priests of Lytir would probably have been spámaðr or fortune-tellers. Supporting this etymology is a story about Lytir in "Hauks þáttr hábrókar" (in the "Flateyjarbók") during which a Swedish king consults the god. Lytir's ceremonial wagon was taken to a sacred place where the god entered it and then taken back to the king's hall, where it was used to answer questions. Aside from this passage, Lytir is otherwise unattested except in several Swedish place names that might contain elements of his name, such as Lytisberg and Lytislunda. He may be identical to Lóðurr, one of the three gods creating the two first humans Ask and Embla.
