The Thor comic book series has been running for over 50 years. During that time, there have been many different writers and artists who have worked on the title. One of the most influential writers was Gerry Conway, who wrote Thor from 1976 to 1980. Conway's run on Thor was marked by a number of significant changes to the character. He introduced the character of Beta Ray Bill, an alien who is worthy of wielding Mjolnir. He also killed off Thor's father, Odin, and replaced him with Loki as the All-Father. These changes were controversial at the time, but they have since become some of the most iconic moments in Thor's history.
In addition to Conway, a number of other talented writers and artists have worked on Thor over the years. These include Walt Simonson, John Byrne, Dan Jurgens, and J. Michael Straczynski. Each of these creators has brought their own unique vision to the character, and they have all helped to make Thor one of the most popular and enduring superheroes in comics.
